hello, I've just bought a land rover discovery 2003 in green at present the colour is the only thing going for it. Got pulled by the police after 5 minutes out of the dealer. Could of saved myself £15 on the car check! Got her home and I have a fuel leak and what looks like a transmission leak. When I get the time Id love to ask some advice on stopping it leaking like a sieve. Still love it though.

If it was bought from a dealer, take it back and get them to fix it. Or get your money back.

Hi

My fault when I said dealer I meant garage or more aptly a fenced off area with a upvc shed on it! I did test drive her and checked her over. She wasn't leaking at the time. Checked the vin plates, chassis, oil condition etc. The vehicle is sold as seen so perhaps I should of brought someone with more knowledge along. You live and learn.

Did you buy it from a dealer or a private sale? And did you pay for a vehicle check?

If it was from a dealer and it's not fit for purpose then take it back and get them to repair it. If you paid for a vehicle check and it's not fit then complain to the checking company.

Or just get on with it and fix the problems. You did buy a Land Rover after all so you can't really expect it not to leak. It's by design...

The leaks were a surprise but they are not insurmountable and your right I did by a land rover warts and all. Just can't wait to play in her.
