[For Sale] D3 HSE 56 Plate MY07 £4,500
56 Plate MY07 Discovery 3 HSE
2.7TDV6
185,000 miles
Full spec Tonga GreenHSE with all original trim
£4,495
Selling Discovery 3 HSE. I’ve owned the car for almost 5 years in which time it has benefited from;
a BAS remap,
a gearbox flush,
a new compressor,
silicone intercooler hoses.
The wishbone arms have been replaced,
New discs and pads (front at 172k and rear at 179k).
The A/C has been regassed and runs cold.
It has had the MY08 Sat Nav, Dash Clock software update
EGR blanking kit fitted.
Two keys.
It drives well, stops well, doesn't smoke, rattle, roll, judder or knock.
However it wouldn't be a true Land Rover if it didn't have a small list of issues! It needs a new spare wheel winch after a bout of over zealous cranking by an over enthusiastic tyre fitter! There is a used one currently for sale on eBay for £30 and a new updated version at £42. It will need a new tyre for the MOT in a couple of months, the others have some tread left. The current spare has a brand new unused Pirelli Scorpion fitted. And it will need a new windscreen as the photos show the existing has a crack across it. Most insurance policies now cover the glass so inexpensive to fix. One of the front fog lenses is cracked as well, the light still works.
It has some of the usual country lane scratches. (Not from off road use but just day to day driving in our part of Devon where the hedges can get serious.) Most will polish out easily but there are one or two that may require some extra elbow grease. And being an older car it does have a few stone chips on the bonnet. The drivers seat has a small tear in the squab which could be repaired quite easily.
I have receipts for virtually all of the work that I’ve carried out on the car in the past 5 years, nothing from the previous owner but not so relevant now.
By no means is this a perfect example but it is good, solid and original. It has some small cosmetic issues that just require some time and TLC. This original car would make an excellent project for someone to turn into something special, maybe like Gary Elliot at Prestige Cars did with an older Tonga Green D3 <https>
The car is in Mid Devon but does travel up and down the M5 / M4 so could be viewed along the way somewhere.

Quite often turn east onto the M4 but could manage a couple of junctions north of there if you're interested.Think ya used enough dynamite there, Butch?
