Buying a used Range Rover Sport - which model is best?

I have been looking to buy a used 2012 Range Rover Sport and noticed there are a lot of cars on the market. Can you tell me if the new model is filtering onto the used market or if the 2012 model offers the best value for money?

Asked on 21 October 2013 by is it worth it?

Great drive both on and off road. Better than anything else at both. But susceptible to plummeting values, so be very careful what you pay.
