Sell or Scrap? 2004 Discovery 2 TD5 manual

facefungus · Wednesday at 15:55

I can't find a For Sale or Wanted area on the site, so using this to advertise my Discovery.

This car was SORNed on April 1st 2023 when the MOT ran out and we were advised that the chassis would fail the MOT without substantial work. As you can see from the attached pictures nothing much has happened to it since. (Needs a bit of a wipe!)

At the time, the engine and gearbox were fine (no warning lights) and brakes and steering all worked.
Last weekend we got it running with a battery from another vehicle (not included in the sale) with no warning lights. Whilst the brakes were seized on, we got them freed without too much difficulty and drove it a short distance before the power steering sprang a leak. We then moved it back into a better position in the yard with the heavy steering. It should drive onto a trailer OK.

I have service & repairs history back to 2013 when I bought the car.
I have the V5C.
One online recycler is offering me £445 and another one £200.

Anyone else interested in it - please let me know. The car is located between York and Malton.

Thank Anaconda. That's what I was thinking, but thought I'd 'reach out' to 'the community' first.

You need to read the rules.
You cannot advertise on here as soon as you join.

Chassis repairs are not the end of the world nor is power steering.
How many miles has it done?

Go on Gumtree or somewhere, "Spares or repair" I honestly feel it is too good to scrap, seen worse driving around.
