    Spotted in Tokushima/ Japan a Discovery 1

    My son that lives over in Tokushima Japan spotted a D1 with Japan number plate. He said that they don't get many Landrovers over there but especially a D1. He has seen a Ranger Rover over there in a side street.
    And looking at the photo of the D1 he sent to me through FB it looks like it is in mint condition. I know you want to see the picture, but I don't know how to get it off FB messenger and then to load it up here. Heather.

    Take a photo of the photo, if you have more than one screen.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    If it isn't a Land Rover Disco 1 import, then it's probaby the a Honda Crossroad - the rebadged Disco 1 which they had in Japan. Probably not too many of these left!

    Must be an import, I can almost make out LAND ROVER on the spare wheel cover.

    Yes it certainly appears to be a D1.5 Facelift Model.

    Interesting to note the rear lights (all) are working as designed by Land Rover. No additional clusters in the bumper bar, to comply with ADRs.

    I think Brendon could be right. D1,D2 he has been around the discovery all his life until we got the L322. And it has the spare wheel with Landrover on it. And in Japan all cars have to go through a very hard road worthy every 3 years and it cost a lot . That's why you don't see very old cars, it is cheaper to buy a new car, which people do over there.

    Could also be an overlander, just visiting. Steph and Leigh of Grizzly and Bear were there a while back. They had to have local plates fitted.

    Nice Disco. Thanks, Heather.
