Spent a fair bit on mine since August 2013 (in NPA):
Roof crossbars
Towbar
Allisport intercooler
Silicone turbo hoses
NSF Driveshaft
Gearbox flush
Torque Converter
V8 brakes - front and rear
Front-rear brake pipes
Alternator
Battery
2nd set of (scruffy) wheels
Several full service kits and fluids etc.
Wheel nuts
2nd set of cam-belts (though not actually due yet) complete with oil and water pumps
Rear HVAC pipes
EGR Blanking kit
Rear upper arms
Decat pipe
Nanocom and IID BT
Two front shocks (which haven't been fitted yet)*
Tyres
Tailgate actuator and latch
Various LED bulbs
Driving lamps (mounting brackets to be produced very shortly now)
More small things and probably something I've forgotten
Over 55k's worth of fuel so far
To add to the above, the rear prop is to be renewed soon, and the brake flexi-hoses, plus various bits and bobs still to do. A fair bit of bodywork's been done under insurance too. More mods are/will be on the list inc. some mud tyres. No doubt an AMK compressor will be down the line some time. Would have bought a remap too, but it turns out it's already done.
All adds up to I-hate-to-think-what, but I've only had one oughtright breakdown - CV joint - and it was at the end of my road; must have been in favour with the gods!
( * = I'm trying to save up for Koni FSDs, but more time-sensitive things keep getting in the way. I want to replace the airbags too, so it's much more cost effective to buy the complete struts and re-sell the shocks. )

Well, I said I'd probably forgotten something, and I have...only the turbo! Current: Discovery 3 06MY (55 reg) HSE Auto Zambezi Silver Allisport Fast Road Intercooler, V8 Brakes, Silicone IC Hoses, EGRs Blanked, Remapped, De-Cat pipe, FBHIC

The shocking thing is that so did mine! No smoke, no lack of power, no faults; just a little rattle. Only when inspected was movement in the core apparent, the veins were catching and it wasn't spinning freely.

Sorry Richard I will have to reply on this thread as the for sale one is now closed. Yes the pipes were still in place but the EGR,s were blanked I will now put a new battery on it. Not used the heat gun yet, well only to dry my hair
