Another example from our own private collection, and a rare opportunity to acquire a Discovery that has lived an extraordinary life. This vehicle has spent many years in long?term dry storage and presents in a condition far superior to what is normally expected of a Discovery of this era. Export?Build Provenance On file is the Land Rover Heritage Certificate, confirming this Discovery was factory?built for export to Japan. Build date: 19 June 1997 Dispatched from the UK: 01 July 1997 First sold in Japan: July 1998 We purchased it from one of our long?standing trade contacts, whose father was the original owner overseas. Due to ill health, both he and the Land Rover returned to the UK, where it was placed into dry storage and remained untouched for many years. Condition & Recommissioning This Discovery is not your typical example. Stored indoors, dry, and undisturbed for an extended period Recommissioning began last summer and is now fully completed Structurally exceptional, with none of the corrosion issues normally associated with this model or age A genuine “step back in time” experience, with a cabin that still carries that unmistakable new?car smell While the original service history was unfortunately misplaced by the family, the condition of the vehicle speaks for itself. It is a rare chance to experience a Discovery I in the simple, honest form it left the factory — before age and use took their toll on most surviving examples. Authenticity & Presentation Presented today exactly as it should be: original, unspoiled, and wonderfully preserved Currently displaying the registration RSH?3S, which will not form part of the sale Viewing strictly by appointment to ensure the vehicle is presented properly and without interruption A Rare Opportunity This is a Discovery that stands tall above others — not restored, not patched, not disguised, but preserved. A genuine survivor with export provenance, long?term storage, and a level of originality that is almost impossible to find today. For enquiries or to arrange a viewing, please contact Alister direct
