(SOLD) 1996 300tdi Discovery 1
« on: February 16, 2015, 08:03:11 PM »
For sale is 1996 'N' reg 300tdi.  152k miles, 7-seater, manual gearbox.  5x alloy wheels with Infinity INF-200 tyres; fronts were only fitted in January 2015.  Comes complete with 2 keys for the ignition, 2 original LR alarm fobs, and 2 keys for the doors/petrol cap (ignition barrel was changed).  Private plate has been removed from the car and the log book is now back onto its original registration number, but I don't have the actual plates.  Service book was stamped up until 72k miles.  Has been self serviced by myself.  Last service carried out in January 2015 with all Bearmach items.  MOT ran out on 10th February 2015, will leave tax on it that runs out on 1st March 2015. 

Selling as spares or repair.  The cradle beneath the fuel tank has dropped slightly due to the front bracket corroding.  Rear bracket to the cradle behind the tow bar is intact, but to stop the fuel tank resting on the rear anti roll bar, its currently held in place by 2 ratchet straps.  The weight of the fuel tank sitting on roll bar has worn the bushes and will need replacing.  There also looks to be other areas around the rear that will require some welding.  I didn't take the car in for an MOT due to the above, so its not registered as a fail, its just expired.

We've had the car for the past 5 years.  Good condition for its age. No expense spared over the years, have thousands of pounds in receipts.  Below is a list of the brand new parts and work been carried out in date order, all with receipts:

Apologies for the wrong description :(  I'm looking to buy a Defender to replace the Disco that had the same wheels on.  The seller identified the wheels as 'Boost' so my description on that.

Original post now amended to suit

Thanks

Adrian
