Hello and thanks for looking
He is my much loved-Mechanically sound and well looked after disco three in Buatti grey, with service history.
As you know one of the best on and off road cars you can buy for the money, I bought the car for 8k 3 years ago and spent around 5k on parts an labour on her up to-date, there is 178000 miles on the clock but cheap car tax of £305
Over the past 3 years, There has been no expense spared in keeping this amazing vehicle on the road, while also upgrading her. I have done an oil and filter change every six month to keep her running smooth with last one done six months ago
here is the long list of all work done, I have most of the paperwork obviously to prove this, but there are some paper work missing but will hunt them down.

The Condition is not too bad for the age and miles, but there are the usual scratches and marks but the car will be valeted before sale and looking at its best.
There are some bad bits also sadly, Needs a new wiring loom for the rear parking sensor is this is around £70 and an hour to fit, I just have not got round to doing it yet, also the satnav has never had a disc in it, so I’m not too sure whether this works at all, i mainly use a phone, the Alloy wheels are in okay condition but could do with re-coating cost again is around 70 quid a wheel, and a hole in the passenger wing mirror
I’ll put more photos up when I get the car back from the Current work beening done ready for sale. ( 29/3/18). As I have a stock photo. The price is Competitive for the year and also work carried out £5499
Real sad Reluctant sale, as no longer need such a big car ☹️

New photos added
Hi all
Sorry for the delay
So just finished the work finally done cost of £750
New hand brake shoes
Recon hand brake module
New springs for hand brake
New Lower bushes
New rear pads
New drop links
New passenger-side handbrake guard
Also I got a remote ( on the 3rd button) heater starter for cold mornings
Other bad bits
Only one key, can’t find the spare any ware.
They had to take spare wheel off and can’t get it
Back on so need a holder around £40.
Also there are some light marks and scratchers manly on the plastics, to fine to show on photos, and a few paint chips on the bonet and doors, all due to just being 14 years old, but I think looks not bad for age
just cleaned her up and here is the photos
