Edit 7th March, OK guys, I never thought it would come to this and I think she is worth much more, but, I really need to see her gone so I'm reducing her to a rock bottom £1600 and absolutely no offers!! believe me when I say she will carry you solidly through the summer and all of next shooting season with no worries

 

This is our 97 P reg automatic 5 door 7 seat 300tdi airforce blue discovery and the kids call her Bessie! We're the 2nd owners and this has been our 2nd car for over 6 years now. Largely it has just been my shooting vehicle and also used for camping trips. It is a re import from Japan and we bought it at just 37k miles and have taken it up to 84k miles over our ownership. I replaced the headlining when we bought it as this always sags with the heat in Japan. It has 4 excellent tyres and a brand new spare. Recent work includes 4 new discs and all new brakes and brake pipes for its MOT last year also 1500 miles ago it had the timing belt changed and all oil/filters, and I have always changed the oil religiously every 6k miles. It was sorned has been stood since before Christmas and as a result the battery died so I have just bought a new one last weekend (three year guarantee) and had it MOT'd on Monday where it passed without incident. It also has an electronic immobiliser and a 6 cd auto changer and a radio unit that powers out of the dashboard to form a tv screen! this requires a tuning converter that I never got around to but the screen displays all the CD data and the radio channels. Mechanically it is excellent and without fault and totally reliable and the motor is very very good indeed. The chassis is totally solid as it has only seen 6 years of british weather. The paint is slightly oxidised from an early somewhat sunnier life. The only thing that isn't working is the central locking since I fitted the new battery but and I haven't taken the time to investigate why. I'm looking for £2200 (now £1900) or very (very!) nearest offer, thanks all.

I notice that else-ware on this site you're trying to sell a book for £ plus postage and when someone queried your price today you promptly replied with this prosaic gem;

 

"if your not intrested dont comment "

 

You should reflect on you're own words and afford others the same courtesy!

Mate i do think its a bit to much money for a 300 but good ones are hard to find with low mileage.. i just sold my last one for £1400 with 126,000 on the clock. good luck with the sale mate

Dear HL members, to help putting a price on my Discovery I looked on autotrader and ebay to find cars I considered to be directly comparable to mine. I found things priced at £2500 to £3500. and I decided to ask £2200 ono which is low by comparison in order to get a quick sale. I've also said that I'm open to reasonable offers and I genuinely believe that My Discovery is going to be a very good purchase for someone who will have many miles of trouble free motoring. This is NOT one of those cars where everything is just about to wear out. Everything works as it should and is in either excellent order or has been replaced. There is no hidden agenda, not like the vast vast majority of cars you go to see.

Thank you
