Description
This is a superb example of a late Discovery 2. Registered in 2005, the vehicle has spent most of its life in Japan. It was imported to the UK in 2018 with 78,700 km (49,000 miles) showing on the clock, and with no rust or signs of wear.
Since coming back to the UK, the current owner has had the speedometer changed to MPH (from KPH) and installed an original tape / radio player to restore the vehicle to its original look.
The underside of the vehicle was de-rusted and wax-oiled in 2021. It would benefit from having it done again to keep it in top condition. The vehicle has done no towing.
The vehicle has been driven 21,500km (13, 350 miles) since it arrived in the UK in 2018, mostly on tarmac roads, with a small amount of mileage on slate tracks.
N.B.: the engine management warning light has an irritating habit of going on and off. After the vehicle's last MOT (Dec 2024) , the light stayed off for several months, but has come back on recently, for no reason that the local garage can discern. Advisories on the MOT noted four brake pipes as "corroded, covered in grease or other material", an oil leak "but not excessive", and slightly-worn bushes on both front shock absorbers.
N.B. Please note that the odometer is in kilometres, not miles.
Overall, this is a clean, well-looked after vehicle, both inside and out. It is a joy to drive with its high driving position and good looks.
