[For Sale] MY08 Discovery 3 SE Manual - Dropped to £7k
Hi all,
Deposit now put on a D4, have been offered £7k trade-in, so my D3 is now dropped to £7k for somebody wishing a quick sale
The time has come to sell my MY08 Discovery 3 SE manual, in Buckingham Blue and black leather interior, it has currently 122,845 Miles on the clock (This will go up as still being used).
Car has an MOT valid until 13th June 2018
I purchased the car back in October 2013 and have spent quite a fortune on it, to make sure it has wanted for nothing. It has the original two sets of keys also
The Disco also benefits from a BAS Auto remap and EGR patch (EGR’s are also blanked) – this has added a bit of BHP to the beast and she drives extremely well. It has memory seats, sat nav, 4x4 screen, arm rests, electric steering wheel adjustment, 6cd Autochanger etc....It also has a parrot bluetooth system hidden away, which I can connect to your phone when you come
The car has been looked after for all of its servicing needs by a forum sponsor down in Somerset and in August was fully serviced with Original LR parts as well as having the front door actuator replaced.
All initial servicing were done with LR (Car originated in Scotland I think) and all other done by an expert forum sponsor
Being a 2008 model. I have also had the major belts replaced as well as the oil pump (Again done by forum sponsor at 89,500 miles)
Being fully open and honest, the car has recently been repaired after a ‘ding’ (Not my fault) and has had a new bonnet, front N/S wing, Front N/R door, N/R headlight all replaced/fixed, so she’s actually looking very good at the moment! If I were to keep here, I would look at changing the 1) Rear tailgate handle 2) fuel tank cover thingy (Mentioned on last MOT)
As it is nearly 10 years old, you can imagine that it has the odd ding, scratch etc, the only real issue being some ‘ ’ opened their door on to the rear O/S door, so there is little dent there, see pics but hard to see.
The Disco also benefits from a Brand New FBH fitted last January and I will also leave in the split charge battery system, which includes a 2nd battery, rear cubby with 2 x 12v sockets, usb sockets and volt meter (I’ve also added 2 x usb sockets to one of the front 12v sockets). Also has twin towing electrics (Tow hitch not included)
Tyres have plenty of tread on them, they are on 18" XS wheels and there is also a full size XS wheel with brand new tyre as a spare (With a home made Spare wheel protector)
I am selling as I am moving on to another Land Rover (D4 or FFRR), so am keen to get this sold as quickly as possible
This is a well-loved and well used Disco, by no means perfect but it is very well looked after! It has taken me and the family all over the UK South, East, West and North (Skye on 3 occasions) and has transported us without any major breakdown (Alternator died once, but managed to make it home)
See detailed pics but please let me know if you have any questions, I will of course make sure that a decent payment is made to the forum once sold
I think I’ve covered everything, but sorry if anything is missed as there’s a lot to remember!
Finally, I’m located in the South West, just below Bristol
Price = £8000 ONO
Please drop me a PM if you have any questions

’ opened their door on to the rear O/S door, so there is little dent there, see pics but hard to see.
