DISCOVERY 4 HSE 3.0V 8 SPEED, 4,000 MILES £25,000 CAT D

Looks a bargain to me - bit of sticky tape and Halfords paint and it will look brand new

Surely that'll just polish out......

Previously owned an '08 D3 HSE in Stornoway grey but jumped ship to see what the Swedes have to offer.

I'd be curious to know why there's almost no pictures of the damage to the rear! Looks like it fell off something nose-first!

Bust washer bottle? Isn't that in that corner?

Either way, I won't be buying it, could be a good project, reshell it from a high mileage D3... flickr

The ad says that the side airbags have been activated. Curious though why the fronts have not.

I would not consider that an "easy" repair though. You'd really need to go and look at it, and be all over it like a rash.

That said, I'd consider it if I had the cash available.

To be a CAT D that must have some chassis misalignment going on as the work to get it back straight would be about 12-13k so well worth it for an insurance co unless it was a dealer that did it which does track a little. but still dubious about a few points...

1. Side bags only going off which could be possible if vehicle was empty(bags may not go off if seatbelts not engaged)

2. front damage looks a bit strange as if its more caught on the passenger side than the drivers side.

3. id like to see the missing damaged parts. they'd normally be chucked in the boot as part of the mop up.

4. how did the rear windows get popped??

5. something just doesnt add up when that car could retail at Â£45K without much hassle. FFRR Owner, very nearly became a D3 owner

Test piloted a new D4 XS SDV6.. Gone and being forgotten i hope!!

Maybe it got rear ended on a transporter and pushed off the front of the truck??
