Hello Reader - firstly just a thanks to any regular posters here - over my two years ownership I have found most of what I wanted here in the forum. As such its my first place to offer for sale my vehicle I will also make a donation on a successful sale...

For Sale

LAND ROVER DISCOVERY 3 V8 HSE AUTO – 2008/08 – 43000 miles

Click image to enlarge


I originally purchased the vehicle from Yeovil Land Rover in Feb ’09 as quite a special vehicle. The vehicle originally belonged to the then Land Rover MD and as such is a one off. The primary thing that makes it special is the use of the V8 petrol engine as by now production of that variant had ceased in the UK. As I understand he ordered a special off the line! (nice job perk!)

The vehicle was first registered in the UK on 19/03/2008 – note the vehicle is NOT imported it is UK first registered.

Zermatt Silver with Ebony Leather – HSE Specification with… 7 Seats (all leather), Alpine Glass Roof, Premium Stereo with digital TV, Navigation/4x4 Display, Armrest Fridge, Piano Black interior trim, Bluetooth, Rear Climate, Bi-Xenons (but not the adaptive see round corner ones)

V8 is something special - It's a 4.4litre AJ-V8 and produces 300hp and 427Nm - Good for 0-60 in 8.5 secs

Full Main Dealer Service History

April ’09 – 7968 miles – Chipperfield Land Rover
Feb ’10 – 24358 miles – Chipperfield Land Rover
Nov ’10 – 39516 miles – Chipperfield Land Rover

Balance of original manufacturer’s warranty remains

4 new Goodyear Wrangler All Weathers M+S – Done about 500miles on them.

Price - £26,500 ono - NOW £24,999!

The computer says I get about 17-18 in day to day and 20-23 on a run.

I'll try and find manufacturers figures - can't find them to hand... (anybody?)

I've read many V8 economy and petrol vs. Diesel posts,

yep, mine is doing 6,4 km/l, numbers on this site say 6,6.
(measured over 40.000 km so should be accurate).
