Hi all. Looks a great place here.

Collecting my first Land Rover tomorrow. 2002 Discovery td5.

Hopefully not too many issues!
 
Check the chassis for rot thoroughly, especially the rear. Check above and below, plenty of access around the arches
 
Thanks everyone. It’s a 1 owner with lots of history, hopefully this helps. Body work has a couple of marks etc... but the guy has moved to a smaller car so assuming elderly. I’ll ensure I check the chassis. There’s been nothing mentioned on MOT history about corrosion at the rear but one but was mentioned off side corrosion under bumper.

Well, I didn’t collect in the end. Absolutely gutted, I was let down on my own car and it knocked on to this one.

Close to everyone I find to buy at the moment has rot too far gone for my own liking or they’ve had a bit of a trim on the miles. I shall keep looking!

Thanks for the welcome everyone.
