DESCRIPTION
An early Land Rover Discovery, one of the most important to come to the market in recent times. This 1990 three-door has a mere 37,000 miles and comes complete with Land Rover issued handbooks and service booklets. Although requiring correction to certain areas of the paintwork and engine bay we feel that this car will add to the collection of any discerning Land Rover connoisseur after a light restoration. The vendor will service the car and present the car to auction with a fresh MoT.
This Discovery featured in a five page article in the March edition of Land Rover Enthusiast, where Simon Hodder said in 2008 ""In fact, I'd go as far to say that if it isn't the best example of an early three-door Discovery in private hands, it's be driven on private ground, but exaust comes whereever inside (through firewall?) and you get ill after 2 miles, so every mile must take a stop and opening the doors to blow fresh air in the car._x000D_
costs in 1995: 420k $._x000D_
I want to have acertainly one of the best.""
The carburetted 3.5 V8 with its satisfying burble was only ever used in the 1990 Discovery and the interior is in near showroom condition, with some patina to the steering wheel. We strongly advise inspection of th semi-new KIA Sportage M2016, so price will be about 20k EUR._x000D_
I can send photos; some older you can see at Google by keyword "KIA KMX3"._x000D_

(+/- 800 km from London)is vehicle and at this guide price, offers great value in a rising classic Land Rover market. A sleeper if we have ever seen one, especially during the Discovery's 25th anniversery year.
