vehicle description:

For sale here we have a Land Rover Discovery 1 in Black. The car was initially sold to the Police force and as such can be guaranteed to have enjoyed a comprehensive service routine in it"s first few years of life. I have no paperwork proof that it was initially a Police vehicle, however the previous owner assured me it was. It also has the siren still fitted under the bonnet (not wired up), extra aerials and small holes in the interior where the radios would have been fitted, so I have no reason to disagree with him.
IntroductionThe car is fitted with the 3.9 V8i and coupled to a very smooth Auto box that hasn"t skipped a beat in the short time I"ve owned it. The car has also had an LPG conversion which is fitting with its previous life as a Police car. I have had the car checked over by an LPG installer (for my own piece of mind) and it"s a very good system comprised of mostly Impco components. The car has recently been fitted with new spark plugs and HT leads that have given it a new lease of life. The car is silky smooth on both Petrol and LPG and with a combination of both will cover approx 400+miles on a motorway run. Not bad considering it only costs 46quid to fill up!
ExteriorThe exterior of the car is as good as you can realistically expect from a car of this age. There are a few small dings (hardly noticeable and in discreet locations), a small amount of chipped paint on the rear arches, however being an aluminium body there is no rust to worry about, making it a simple repair for a competent DIY enthusiast. The most notable problem would be the swirl marks in the paint, which can be polished out with some time and a little elbow grease. I will however be polishing the car as the auction runs, so expect the paint to be in good condition for the time of collection. The underside of the car is in great condition having never been off road or green laning. As such there is not a speck of rust and the exhaust system is in top condition too, allowing for a quiet and refined ride, but still allowing for a V8 grumble when pushing on a little. As can be seen from the photos she does scrub up well and any inspection prior to bidding is welcome, at a time to suit you, with the exception of 12-16th July as I"ll be away for work.
InteriorThe interior is in a good overall condition and has aged well with no tears that I can find whilst cleaning it. There are a couple of points to note, one of the drivers bolsters has seen better days and is starting to sag a little, however the seat is a simple foam insert and doesn"t affect the performance or comfort of the seat in anyway. The dash has a couple of very discreet holes where radios have been previously fitted. The carpet is in very good condition and also points towards the fact the vehicle has never been off road or green laning. During conversion for the police force the standard head-unit would have been removed, as such an aftermarket CD changer head-unit is fitted with uprated rear speakers. The rear speakers are of standard size, fitting behind the original covers and no modification to the car has been made to fit them. The standard rear speakers and a Disco 2 head-unit are also included in the sale if you prefer the OEM look of the dash.
Bad PointsI picked this car up cheap from a garage that work on my main car as they had taken it to cover the cost of work for another customer who couldn"t pay. It was taking space up in their workshop and hence the cheap sale to me. Due to the unfortunate circumstances I have been unable to get in contact with the previous private owner and as such have no history for the car. However, the car has recently had new spark plugs, HT leads and good, matching A/T tyres fitted all round. If the car also sells for the Buy It Now price I will include 12months M.O.T. and will have a complete service carried out on the vehicle with receipts for the new owner to give piece of mind.
Last BitsI bought this car to tidy up a bit and run around while on leave (I work at sea) and as such the time has come to sell her. I don"t have much interest in 4x4"s unfortunately, but you have to at least try everything once, but we just didn"t click. I have all the confidence the new owner will be pleased with their purchase and it will continue to serve it"s people for many miles to come.You bid to buy, not to view, viewing before bidding is welcomed and recommended to appreciate the condition of the car and should be normal procedure before bidding on any car. Any inquiries phone or text 07597 245947I am interested in any PX"s you may have and the Buy It Now is 2500
The car is advertised elsewhere and I reserve the right to end the auction early. 10% Deposit by PayPal within 24hrs of auction end. Cash on Collection or PayPal, I will not release the car to a courier before the total funds have been transferred to my PayPal account. Buyer assumes all responsibility for collection.
Happy Bidding 99p Start!!!!
