United Kingdom 2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Manual Zambezi SilverDiscovery 3

Mine maybe coming up for sale around that figure.
It's a 55 plate with SE spec in Zambezi silver.
Black leather, sat-nav, heated front & rear seats etc, etc.
Full service history
Current mileage 140,000
But it's a manual.

Thanks
Martin

Just the ticket but how do you find manual transmission - is it hard work?
Perhaps PM me your contact information and let me have a few more details?

Genuinely interested.

Thanks Jm

Manual is my first choice, but that is what it is a choice either on road or off, it is my choice of transmission. And the extra mpg don't come in wrong Thumbs Up

United Kingdom 2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Manual Zambezi SilverDiscovery 3

Jm,
Had a couple of BMW autos prior to this and to be honest the manual to me is a bit more involving to drive.
Didn't realise how much I missed a manual gearbox until I got this.
I have a Defender 90 also which I will be selling as well, as selling both vehicles to contribute towards the purchase of a Defender 110 utility.
If you want any information on it please PM me and I will forward on my contact details.

Thanks

Martin

Thanks for all replies.

After some consideration, I think Auto transmission is a requirement, rather than a preference.
At the same time, I guess we can revise our budget slightly.

So, in summary, we're looking for a diesel auto Disco 3 SE with FSH under £10k.

Would appreciate any pointers and offers of similar.

In my humble opinion manuals are fine, if off roading they do need a bit more concentration but still ok . Thumbs Up Steve
