[For Sale] Discovery 3 V8 2005 Zambezi Silver with LPG
Its time to sell my D3 V8 2005MY, I have owned since 2021 having bought the car from a club member near Southampton,
it has been a great car especially for long distance journey's being so comfortable, used as my 2nd car for pleasure and I have not used the D3 off road.

Reg. V8 BUO is staying on the D3

Bad Points
the wheels would benefit from power coating, but from a distance they look ok
MOT 2 years ago they said there was corrosion on the offside rear sill which was the size of 2p coin, which I disputed with the tester as the metal was not failed but being a Land Rover hating person he would not change it to an advisory even though I would have had the work done, so I had this repair done at my friends garage who restores classic cars, plastic rear inner arch was removed the inner wheel arch was checked then the repair was done with no issues since.
nearside front plastic wheel arch protector has some small scratches on it, see image
Price £5000
