here are the pics and info.,




V8I DISCOVERY ES.  THIS IS ONE OF THE CLEANEST DISCOVERY'S IN THE COUNTRY AS IT WAS REIMPORTED FROM FRANCE LAST YEAR. I HAVE ALL THE DOCUMENTS FOR THIS.THERE IS NO RUST ON THIS LANDROVER MAKING IT ONE OF THE CLEANEST EXAMPLES AROUND. IT HAS A FULL SERVICE HISTORY. IT HAS HAD A RECENT ALTENATOR AND BATTERY BEFORE I BOUGHT IT SO NO WORRIES THERE, THERE ARE NO CLUNKS OR FUNNY NOISES FROM THE DISCOVERY AND IT ALWAYS CHANGES GEAR AS IT SHOULD. THE HI/LO GEARS WORK GREAT TOO AND FEEL VERY FIRM AND SECURE IN OPERATION.THE DISCOVERY HAS THE RARE MANUAL GEARBOX FITTED.,

THERE IS SIDE STEPS FITTED AND A REAR STEP TOO. MUDFLAPS ARE FITTED BUT THE DRIVERS ONE IS MISSING, WONT COST MUCH TO REPLACE FROM EBAY. THERE IS ALSO A SPOTLIGHT BAR FITTED THE THE BUMPER WITH TWO GENUINE LANDROVER SPOTSLAMPS FITTED. BOTH WORK GREAT. THIS DISCO SOUNDS AND DRIVES SUPERBLY AND ALWAYS BRINGS A SMILE TO MY FACE. IM SELLING IT AS IM OUT OF WORK SINCE XMAS AND JUST CANT AFFORD TO KEEP IT ANY LONGER, IM GUTTED TO HAVE TO SELL THE BEST DISCOVERY I HAVE OWNED, THE DOORS, WHEEL ARCHES AND DOOR CHECKS ARE ALL  EXELLENT AS ARE THE SILLS, INNER SILLS, FLOOR, BODY MOUNTS, INNER WINGS, HEADLIGHT PANEL WHICH I REALLY CANT BELEIVE THEY ARE ON A MODEL OF THIS AGE. THE CHASSIS IS ALSO VERY GOOD. THIS CAR NEEDS NO WELDING AT ALL. IN FACT IT NEEDS NOTHING DOING TO IT.

BEING AN ES MODEL THIS DISCO HAS TWIN ELECTRIC SUNROOFS BUT THE REAR ONE HAS A TINY LEAK SO IT WAS COVERED WITH SOME TAPE BEFORE I BOUGHT IT. THE FRONT IS A LITTLE STICKY BUT WORKS FINE. THERE IS CRUISE CONTROL, AIR CON. ELECTRIC WINDOWS. MIRRORS AND THESE ALL WORK GREAT.THIS DISCO ALSO HAS ABS BRAKES FITTED, EXELLENT  AVON RANGER A/T TYRES WITH LOADS OF TREAD ON THEM, SPARE IS VERY GOOD TOO BUT CANT REMEMBER THE MAKE. SCORPION I THINK. ALSO THERE IS LOCKING WHEEL NUTS FITTED.

THERE IS A COUPLE OF BAD BITS BUT WITH A CAR OF THIS AGE IT CANT BE PERFECT, THE DRIVERS SEAT IS REALLY WORN ON THE BASE, ILL GET A PIC OF IT SOON. THERE IS TWO FRONT SEAT COVERS INCLUDED AND YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW UNLESS YOU TAKE THESE OFF. THE ALARM FOB HAS STOPPED WORKING BUT I JUST USE THE KEY SO IT DIDNT BOTHER ME. THERE IS ONLY ONE KEY AND ONE FOB TOO. THE EXHAUST IS NOT THAT OLD EITHER. THE PAINWORK IS REALLY GOOD FOR ITS AGES BUT DOES HAVE A FEW SCRATCHES ON IT. BUT IM HAPPY WITH IT FOR ITS AGE, I HIGHLY RECOMEMEND VEIWING OF THIS DISCOVERY AND IM HAPPY TO TAKE ANYONE FOR A TEST DRIVE IN IT.

THERE IS DISCOVERY'S ON HERE OVER ?3,500 FOR THIS MODEL AND AGE SO GRAB THE BEST BARGAIN OF THE YEAR ESPECIALLY WITH THE CARVANING AND CAMPING SEASON STARTING, THIS WILL TOW ALMOST ANYTHING, ANYWHERE IN REAL COMFORT. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK AND ILL ANSWER THEM AS BEST I CAN, PLEASE ALSO REMEMBER IM ONLY SELLING THIS DISCOVERY AS I REALLY CANT AFFORD TO KEEP IT AS WE HAVE TWO CARS IN THE HOUSEHOLD SO THIS ONE ISNT NEEDED. NO TEST PILOTS OR TYRE KICKERS BUT INSPECTIONS ARE HIGHLY ADVISED SO YOU DONT MISS OUT ON THIS GREAT LOOKING TRUCK,.

Sorry. No chance. This disco is an import.  It's worth way more than that.

Surprised your toiling to sell this even after ebay?. Personally speaking around here midlothian area discos especially non lpg  v8 discos struggle. Cost to run them puts of evryone. Discos in general seem to be the black sheep of the range they just loose value and you see this in freelanders aswell. Latly i have watched very clean 300tdi discos and freelanders barly break the 1k mark. If you ahd the room and time would you not be better of breaking it up. it has evryhting going for it good engine, great bodywork and good drivetrain all broken you should easily sell the stuff that way. Might be the only way you get good money for it. Lots of folk doing convertions plenty useable parts on ur disco and the other stuff you can sell to disco owners who dont want the full truck. Just a thought.  :)

Hi. I can't understand the point of breaking up a very clean. Rust free disco. If everyone thinks it's worthless then I'll keep it and run it less. I had an offer recently around ?1700 and didn't take it as
I had good chance of work and was going to keep it. I'll not break up a good car. Discos that are rotten I agree aren't worth saving. But I'll not sell mine for peanuts.

Jon you probably need to check things with the DVLA,
they must not of updated the Disco's records correctly since it came back from France.
Its shows as unlicensed & date of liability 01.02.2009
(possibly people looking at it on ebay will have checked this & wondered why!)
