High Peak Auto's bloke bought a £500 Discovery 3 - YouTube
That YouTubing car dealer chap at High Peak Auto's has just bought a silver 2005 Discovery 3 HSE and is doing a few videos on the problems and costs etc. Might be interesting to watch.
Might even increase the used value of our 200,000+ mile Discovery 3's.

Part 2 now out see
As MOT is only valid until 2 December 2021 it will be interesting to see what he does next.

Lots of fails in the MoT history, never checked bulbs before test but then again maybe happy to pay to have them changed but not bothered about in use?
Lots of tyres worn out to the canvas too! all this suggests history of poor maintenance?Series 1 V8
Series 2 Hibrid V8
Discovery 3 HSE V8
