FOR
SALE - Classic 21-year-old LAND ROVER DISCOVERY
Land
Rover Discovery, 1994, first year of USA production, well cared for &
has been in storage for the last few years. Performs like in a dream –
just drove around Lake Tahoe – and looks sleek in its original
Emerald Green Metallic exterior with Bahama Beige interior.
Driven only 5, 000 miles per year, and has less than 105, 000 total miles. No immediate issues; doesn't need anything critical. Engine purrs. No steering wobbles, even at 70mph. Driving this Rover is a pleasant and enjoyable experience, with the
leather seats providing comfort and style. A fine vehicle kept for 12
years in top condition.
SHIPPING
Shipping
at buyers expense, and this vehicle MUST BE PICKED-UP OR SHIPPED-OUT
WITHIN FIVE DAYS of purchase (seller is leaving and cannot keep it
longer).
RUST
FREE
Rust
free. This Rover has spent its life in sunny dry Nevada and
California since brand new. Only the second muffler shows decay, but
still muffles the engine as designed. No rust under the beautiful
Metallic Emerald Green exterior paint.
SERVICED
This
Discovery was serviced by Land Rover dealers and Rover-specific
independent shops. Driven very little, but used yearly, serviced with
care.
NO
ACCIDENTS
No
accidents. No dents. One little dime-sized ding over the front driver
wheel (cannot see it in the photos). Amazing after 21 years on the
road.
PAINT
Original
paint still in fine condition all around; except, the hood (or
bonnet), where the paint has faded and tree-pitch marked the surface.
Rather than repaint the hood, and risk being accused of hiding
something, it's been left for the next owner to decide what to do. No
rust.
EMISSIONS
Has previously passed Nevada emissions test with flying colors ... expect it would pass California emissions.
TRANSMISSION
No leaks. Brand
new transmission fluid.
ENGINE
No
knocks, no bangs, no major leaks, no burning oil. Slight leak usual with Land Rovers. No engine work done
or necessary. This Rover starts right up at first try.
RADIATOR
New
radiator, as engine was overheating last year. Flows strong and keeps this Discovery cool on the hottest
California or Nevada day, even with the AC on while climbing up a
mountain.
ALTERNATOR
Brand
new Bosch rebuilt alternator.
BATTERY
Brand
new battery with 800 cold-cranking amps.
TRICKLE
CHARGER INCLUDED
A
750mA 12V trickle charger is included; keeps the battery charged when
vehicle's not being used.
ELECTRICAL
SYSTEM
The
electrical system just checked out great.
MUFFLER
Mufflers
work as expected, but the second at rear will need replacing soon.
BRAKES
Brakes
pads okay in the front and rear. No ABS or traction control lights or
issues!
SHOCKS
Newer
shocks.
4X4
Full-time
4x4 system, offers great traction in snow: Low and High 4WD
both work fine!
TIRES
Goodrich
T/A KO Mud+Snow tires; about 70% wear with traction remaining for
upcoming snow season.
WHEELS
The
OEM alloy wheels look handsome.
ROOF
RACK
The
OEM roof rack has not been used, so is in original condition.
GLASS
The
windshield is okay. Tinted door glass is clear with no chipping or
fading.
POWER
LOCKS & DOORS
Power
locks work, except passenger door must be locked separately. Driver
door sometimes locks itself – but other doors stay unlocked so not
a worry: European mechanic this week declared he could repair it. The door panels all around are clean and in excellent condition.
POWER
WINDOWS
All
four power windows work; likewise do the power dual sunroofs
open/shut via motors.
SEATS
The
leather seats offer comfortable support. No rips, tears, and minimal
wear.
HEADLINER
OEM
headliner is in excellent condition!
CARPET
OEM
carpet in the truck is still good. Could use cleaning. No holes, no
tears, no rips.
RADIO
W/CASSETTE DECK
OEM
radio/cassette functions, but when battery was changed, it lost its
code; this code is needed to resume operation, but the original owner
didn't pass it on. Supposedly, a Rover dealer can provide it.
POWER
ANTENNAE

bent years ago, and is too stiff to go up/down by the motor, which
still functions.

AC
sends out cold, and heater is hot.

STANDARD
DISCLAIMER
This
Land Rover is sold AS-IS with NO warranty. This is a used car
and will have signs of use. Although this classic 1994
Discovery is likely one of the best on the road, please do not expect
a showroom brand-new car. It does have 105, 000 miles on it. And eventually every car will break ... if you know of one that
doesn't please tell everyone the secret … whenever this Land Rover has broken
it's been repaired. Please only bid if you intend to buy! This Discovery must be picked-up or
shipped-out within five days, as seller will be leaving (although arrangements can be made for later pick-up by a shipping company at a specified location). All sales are final.
