Hello all,
My names is Shawn. I have a good friend who is quite involved on DiscoWeb and has given me the Land Rover bug. It's bad too.... So one way or another im looking to buy/trade a Discovery or RR Classic. I know what i have for trade is in a completely different off road category but who knows, it may spark someones interest. Im located in Orlando Fl. Im willing to travel reasonable* distances.

Wheels / Tires
Pro Comp 15" Black Wheels 3.75 Back Space
33" 12.50 15 General Grabbers (Red Letters). Bought about 2 Months Ago
The Good:
Recently bought and installed a fuel filler hose. Thats a pretty common issue with Mazdas and Rangers.
Recently bought a new grill to freshen it up.
Recently flushed the coolant and brake fluid.
AC blows ice cold and the heat works great.
Runs like a champ and gets pretty good gas milage.
The suspension is solid and can handle anything you can through at it.
She runs great on the interstate and i generally pull a trailer as i travel to race motorcycles.
New General Grabber Tires Which Are Awesome.
The Not So Good: (All Minor)
I have a crack in the wind shield. To be honest it dosent bother me and i never got around to fit it.
The gauge cluster is from a V6 Ford Ranger. So the Tack is slightly off.
On the same note with larger tires, the speedo is 5-10 MPH off depending on speed. Never bothered me but its easy to solve and Cost about $10.
No air bag, you really dont want one for off roading any ways.
Interior Dome light dose not work. Its an easy fix. The door switch in the drivers door is stuck. Common problem for Rangers/Mazdas. It makes the light stay on so i pulled the fuse.
The body of the truck is in pretty good shape. Absolutely no rust. It has minor dings here and there. Id say better than average for its year.
Horn dose not work. Its recent (past week) and i think it may just be the fuse.
Over all this is a solid truck. Perfect for a daily and for some serious off roading. Its a trun key truck. Nothing needs to be fixed. Almost anything that fits a Ford Ranger fit this truck. This truck turns a lot of heads and is quite popular. It's well built with good fabrication and parts. I have over 8K in the truck. Im a reasonable person and understand i will not get that out of it.
If you are interested in the Truck I can give you my number. Im willing to travel reasonable distances. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. Id be more than happy to explain anything.
Im looking for a comparable trade. It must be a solid vehicle and ready for daily use. Really would like a RRC but im open to any Discovery trade as well. Let me know what you have. Id prefer a vehicle that has basic off road parts, lift, tires, etc. Let me know what you have.
Thanks,
Shawn
