Hi- please kindly advise on whether you would buy something with this spec: 238,000 km on the clock £3,000 asking price 2003 Discovery 2 Partial service history - would you buy? (All things considered) - and how many kms/mi’s do the disco 2s typically run for until they die? Your help would be much appreciated 🙏

Hearing they have all those problemns, that can't be from normal usaage. Am i right? Are those problems due to using them in mud and offroad extensively as play tools and not as a daily driver at some farm.
@Utopiatwentytwo5 күн бұрын
From my experience it's more about how's it been cared for rather than usage. Even used as a daily driver if the chassis hasn't been washed when there's salt or on the road they tend to have rust issues or scrapped and cracked bumpers.

That actually is a Cooper. If it's not a Cooper, it would be a One... Anything over the base spec engine carries the Cooper name, and then S gets tacked on top of that with the Supercharged engines, and lastly JCW gets tacked on top of that all with the John Cooper Works upgrades.

I bought a 2002 Td5es in 2006. I still have it and it's run every single day. It's had every typical D2 fault over the years - Three amigos (several times) XYZ switch - 3 times Rear chassis leg repairs Fuel rail replaced. Front sunroof failed at 101000 miles Battery replace 3 times Roof rails reseal Headlining repair (they drop) Both front springs replace. ACE deleted (after numerous repairs) Tailgate stay seized. All ball joints / steering joints replaced Steering box (twice) Apart from that, these things are awesome - hang on to it if you have a nice one because prices will start to climb.

Sounds like a D2! They are great we brought this one to sell but will definitely get another in the future. I'm sure for an arm and a leg tho 😂

It's just the old plastic, when they go through heat cycle it can weaken then and then after a few years they become brittle and break

Sigh....been here and done this and miss it so about a decade ago. Mine was a black tourer with the alpina variant m20 block along with the limiter set too 8k. Its a 2.7 litre but left in the 2litre gearbox It was also stripped out and drove like a purists dream. We miss it so as we got married in it and even 0ur daughter "camaro" was conceived in that car.
