Hi All,
I wonder if anyone can give me a little help in trying to price my Disco that has to go (its intended use, won't be happening now) - If anyone is interested in buying then please email me.
An early 1990 3 Door Land Rover Discovery 3500cc V8 (on carb's - not Injection).
First registered in January 1990. Current MOT and Taxed 'till end of september.
Red, 5 seats (originally a 7 seater, the two at the back have been removed),
120k miles, 5speed manual, bought with the intention of tidying it up and using to tow. - I won't be needing to tow and so its a lot of car that won't be getting the use, the wife's not too keen on it and so it has to go....Its had a load of mechanical work done recently. Over £1000 spent in parts - with receipts, In the last 500 miles: Complete new exhaust from the manifolds back (not cheap if you get the 'fast fit' places to supply and fit.) New front brake disks and pads New front suspension springs and shocks/dampers New steering damper An engine service that included: New oil, new oil filter, new HT leads, new spark plugs, new air filter, new rotor arm and distributor cap. New front and rear axle oil New gearbox oil New transfer 'box oil Front Swivel hubs fitted with the 'one-shot' grease Two new track rod ends A new (recon') nearside front brake caliper 4 new tyres + balancing + wheel alignment Fuel filler cap
It does have a number of faults:
It has been a working vehicle and there are a few minor dents and scratches - The paint has faded. Drivers door has 'dropped' (play in hinge and damaged check-strap). Dent in the front bumper - valance has been cut to facilitate the fitting of bull-bars (no longer fitted) Central Locking is in-op Front light has suffered from water ingress and the reflector has tarnished.
I'm thinking that it must be useful to the enthusiast - Use it as it is (its more utilitarian than a pose wagon!), tidy it all up, or break it for spares...
Thanks in advance, Dave
