Thread: Buying a used Discovery III

HI everyone.

This is not a new question by any means but I have read what I can find on used Disco 3's and still not sure which way to go.

Available is a Disco3 SE May2009 172,000km. $27,000
It is in WA so I expect it to be more expensive than the East states.

One mature owner with dealer log books complete.
presents immaculate with H/D tow bar and Bulbar. (may indicate it has pulled a van)
Has many extras fitted.
Best I have seen including ones with lower km's

My main question is - are the km's too high to get a good run out of it and secondly
if the vehicle checks out mechanically positive are there any inherent problems that are common for the next 100,000 km as I will be using it 80% around the city and only a little gravel road use.

Any advice would be very handy and will take on board any tips..
PS:
I have a disco II at the moment which has given me grief.

Cheers

Thanks for the reassurance. Will call Southern Land Rover
