[For Sale] OR SWAP Discovery 2 - Coil sprung 5 seater

Swindon Wiltshire £2500 OVNO Or swap for anything interesting - try me...


Hi this is not the usual rubbish, I have owned this car for 2 years and trust me I would not have brought it if the rear chassis was rotten. Every job required has been done to ensure driving safety as I have used it to tow my caravan and take the family off roading.

Only selling as I got a D3 – which needs all of my attention!

It is ready to drive away with tax and Mot due in July.

The Important bits:

Rear Chassis is solid, it had started to rust on the near side - they all do - but I have removed the loose stuff, converted it with Jenolite, sprayed it with Hammerite and Waxoyled it. Both sides are solid and can be hammer tested with complete confidence. It has not rusted through and has not been welded. and is not mentioned on the MOT - in fact it got compliments from last years tester for its underneath condition.

The Front O/S wheel arch has been welded for the MOT in 2015, and was ok last year.

Jobs done since June 2015:

2 Proper Remote Keys 1 New Key (Unused)

Gearbox Oil replaced

Power steering pipes renewed

Front shock absorbers lower bushes renewed

Both sides ball joints and tracking bar renewed

Steering ball joint renewed

Steering damper renewed

Rear tires are Maxxis Marauder MA-S1 8mm tread

Centre caps are present as are the locking wheel nut covers

Some wheel nuts have been renewed

2 Central locking actuators renewed (passenger front) and off side rear.

Features:

Tires are 235/70 R16 (Road tires)

Landrover Rubber mats including the boot

Active Cornering Enhancement

5 seater

Home Lights works

Coil Springs all round

Twin Sunroofs

Being Picky

This is a reliable, practical vehicle which has been used, and does a have a few nics and scratches the worst of which are:

Rear bumpber cracked (aldi car park bollard)

Rear offside wheel arch ding

Rear door storage bin cracked

Drivers seat bolster - worn fabric

Few side scratches.

Overall

This truck drives like new and earlier year I test drove a £22K 2012 D4 from a garage and it was worse than mine (it was swaying all over the road, steering wheel was on crooked, hand brake fault, and the brakes pulled to one side). Its because of how good mine drives and how I have set it up for the next 10 years that I think it cant be beaten.

You might find a newer one with better spec, but I guarantee it wont have had all the work done it than mine has.
Also Availble D2 Off Road wheels and Tires
