Interior photos to follow - tis the tan leather, in pretty good condition imo.
Open to guidance on prices / offers.
Apologies!
I read the Registration wrong... Very tempted if this is still for sale?
Could be a great interim vehicle whilst mine is off the road being welded/having metal transplant
Only fear is i may get too used to the v8

Mine is great. I cant believe this hasnt been snapped up. The 2.7 does about 27mpg which i think is pretty good. Just needs the oil leak sorted (or run as is i guess…but thats not my style) and its ‘as good as new’. Tbh, im gutted as really wanted to get to the magic 200k.

These wheels are NOT inc.
Leak is engine oil i think - im no mechanic. Tis very ‘slight’ - bout half a palm in size, after car left for a week…so minor but as you can see, i like to look after my cars so i wouldnt leave it as is.
Yes still for sale…ive only posted on here coz i believe it to be a real gooden so dont wanna just ebay it.

Can’t speak for anyone else but these D3 s are on a see saw edge at this age. The road tax is a very large percentage of the value of the car and one major fault can result in the car being unviable to repair properly.
An oil leak could be simply a weeping seal or union but it could be a crank seal and an engine out job.Discovery 3 tdv6 HSE 2007

Isnt that the same for any car that reaches this price?
Eitherway, as mentioned - open to offers before goes on ebay. Am hoping an enthusiast gets it coz the leak is very small and as far as im aware, everything else is just awesome - its gorgeous to drive.

The markets gone for these discoveries they are to expensive to run , evidenced by the number for sale on here . Sadly I suspect yours will be worth as much as a breaker as a running vehicle.
I would put it on ebay but dont be surprised if you dont find much interest there.

Hi,
I think you at a fair price but when money is in front of you you have to decide if what they offer is enough,
Think there is still is a market for a D3 but maybe more locally
not as many will travel as there are many for sale and they vary so much so can wait for a local one to look at, I dont think there more expensive to run IF you can do repairs yourself and you dont do loads of miles, they are still a very useable/versatile vehicle, and at that price dont depreciate.
Advertise it locally and wait for your buyer, good luck Transit! 2019

The earlier advert mentioned a remap. Do you know who did the remap? Was it mapped for extra power or better fuel economy do you know?Discovery 3 tdv6 HSE 2007
