Thanks Rudi
With some luck o' the Irish, divine intervention from Rudolf Diesel on his bday and some "creative" financing....I just signed all the papers and purchased this vehicle today!! soooo stoked! Hope its a good un...dont know much about Discos or Rovers in general so I'll be asking lots of questions as soon as I take delivery sometime next week.:victory:
Just wanted to add some more info for the curious/interested:
Custom Features: -Isuzu 3.9 4BD1T turbo diesel. -NV3500 5-speed transmission. -Rover LT230 transfer case with center locking differential. -Schwitzer S200 extended tip turbo. -3 inch full exhaust. -Brand New Clutch, Re-built transmission, bearings, etc. About 50 miles on the transmission. -Dual core all aluminum radiator running G5 coolant. -Tom Woods shafts F&R CV's on both with u-joint conversion rear. -Greg Davis rear bumper and front custom front bumpers, 2'' receiver. -12K Mile Marker electric winch, really cool mount, basically invisible, very clean look. -RTE lift springs. -D1 rear spring perches. -DBA rotors and Axis Ultimates pads. -Electrically heated windshield. -Differential protection. -Dual Die Hard Batteries. -Manually controlled glow plugs. The interior is in excellent condition. It is stock with the exception of boost and egt gauges, and additional shifters. All gauges work, fuel, tach, temp, low oil, etc. No warning lights on, all in working order. The seats are tan leather, power and heated. The carpet, dash and headliners are in great condition. Air conditioning works great and is displayed in Celsius, not sure why. Currently mounted on 5 (full size spare) BFG Mud Terrains, size 255-85-16 . No rubbing, vibrating etc. The tires look new with tons of deep tread left. Full synthetic oil change on 2/1/2011 Fuel filters replaced 2/1/2011. The entire underside and bumpers are currently sprayed in Lanox MX4 heavy duty anti corrosion lubricant. The body has no rust, the chassis has light rust and that is overstating it. Things that need work: -The shifter boots and knobs are not up to the standard of the rest of the vehicle. This is all cosmetic and easily fixed. See pictures. -There is one missing dummy switch on the console. -The PCV valve currently vents to atmosphere, meaning if you really work the engine, it will eject a mist of oil from the valve cover that outlets near the transfer case. We are talking maybe 1 cup every 2,000 miles. This set-up can be re-plumbed so that it vents to the crank case or a reservoir.
