For sale due to unexpected house and job move. I bought this 14 months ago as a second/holiday/fun car, I now only have room and resources for one vehicle.

Rear door is perfect
Others generally good with some surface rust on frames. Drivers door has a hole and a bent top rail, parts to fix available. It also needs a new door card and has a hinge which is a different colour.

Other body

Generally straight and tidy. Rusty patch on body capping below window, small ding on rear r/h corner. Couple of minor paint scratches.

Wheels and tyres
Boost alloys with nearly new General Grabber TRs

Oily bits
300tdi pulls like a train. No smoke, knocks or rattles. Doesn't drop oil.
R380 is perfect, high/low and diff lock work correctly.
Has a Discovery transfer box for genuine 70mph cruising.
New clutch, fork, master and slave cylinders
New brake calipers all round.

Interior
TD5 dash
Full Noisekiller sound proofing
Exmoor Trim high backs (middle seat currently the original, third high back available as are originals)

Extras
Safari snorkel
Mantec swingaway wheel carrier
Side steps
Chequer plate wing tips
A-bar with spots
Steering guard
Kenwood CD/radio
Clifford Cat1 immobiliser/alarm

Special features
Rear washer only works intermittently
More watertight than it used to be but not completely leak free
Indicator tell-tale doesn't work on right
Earthing problem in driver's door post means interior light and alarm are temperamental

Overall I'd say this was good with room for improvement. I'm open to sensible offers - I paid £6k, and it's better than it was then. It will be going on ebay shortly...

Inspections and test drives welcome, subject to insurance.

Looks nice. By the way, you should know that clicking the pics takes you through to your photo bucket account, which is open and show pics of (your?) kids. You might want to restrict access...
