Could have guessed that would be Geordie. He's owned some ultra rare J tat over the last few years, including a number of Stanzas. Interesting fella who really should be on here!

Hope this one gets a good home. Had two as well. Both estates and father in law had a 1.6 hatch, but loved my GL5's. Seller history not the best, looks as though he does not set a reserve and then does not sell if he wants more. One to keep an eye on though...

cort16 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 This looks worth of salvation. v8 manual "The vehicle has never been welded which is almost unheard of in a Discovery 1 these days" Inevitably "There are a couple of areas of rust that will need addressed on the car such as the tops of the rear inner arches in the rear door shuts (as seen in the photos) and the drivers side sill " It still doesn't look too bad for an old Discovery. https://www.gumtree.com/p/land-rover/land-rover-discovery-1-3.9-v8-manual/1422942102 Remspoor and LightBulbFun 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote There was a Cabriolet (FHK11) unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1995, but it was not sold until August 1997, with an electric top. These were produced in limited numbers for the Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) only. However, much like the Nissan Figaro, some have been imported into the UK unofficially. There was also an estate version called the March Box (WK11), which was unveiled on November 1999, with a double folding rear seat, along with an automatic transmission four-wheel drive model.[citation needed] Remspoor, tooSavvy, grogee and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like any e30/36 scene kid now thinks that the rust flakes are now worth £onemillionpounds. I guess if you could get it for scrap value and you need some spares (drivetrain, electrical bits that are salvageable) then it's worth it to scrap the rest.
