I gotta ask, am I delusional or are a lot of the current sellers of D2’s? Cause I’m seeing D2’s for like 3-4k that does not mention anything to do with welding the go-to places on a disco, it does mention about how all the filters have been changed, it’s had an expensive valet and been washed… as if I give a toss about filters, a valet and wash, child’s play!
I want to know if I’ve gotta spend a good few months messing about welding all over the place again and replacing parts that are worn cause the landy is actually garbage tarted up to ship to the next mug.. lol. There is 1 on auto trader for 5k that reads decent on parts replaced but not a word on welding and it ain’t an import but the pictures are just of the inside, i want mechanicals/chassis shots not seats!
Ok, not all D2’s will need tonnes of welding, right now at-least but they’ll need some and a lot more in future if things haven’t been done already. There is no way I will spend 5k on a D2 that isn’t galv with body welding needed or at the very least all the rust/corrosion points have been dealt with on the body then I can just galv it myself. Am I delusional or is that too big of an ask? I honestly only really care about the body as that’s not replaceable, then the drivetrain etc .. chassis can be replaced.
There’s D2’s on for 12k…. 12K!!! what… I can get a defender for that, are you mad!! Just gotta vent like, I honestly think a lot of the people selling the discovery’s actually know nothing about them mechanically, just had garages do it all and have plucked a price out of thin air… Ebay is the same too, all look way over priced.
