Description

Hi, forsale i have my p38 range rover 2.5 dse auto.
Please read as its the reasons its going cheap and saves me and you time when you come view if you have, i know its long but im an honest seller and value my feedback so i cover everything so your not disapointed when you turn up to view/buy as we all have been on here at some point!
Reason its for sale and listed as repairs is i have given up on it it owes me just under 2500 which ill never get back now and loosing basically 1500 but im not prepared to put anything else into it ive drawn the line as i wanted a v8 disco mainly or td5 in the 1st place but this popped up and i liked it but now given up. It is a late 99 which had a later 99 engine in with the plastic inlet which locked on my way home from buying it 6-7 month ago, so withing 2 week i found someone breaking one and got the whole engine etc out of it at a good price but had no pics and when it came was an early 99 with the metal inlet with 136k on it but me and my dad put it in and it all mated up and ran (will roughly be on about 139-140k now) then aftter fitting diesel pump had a leak that came with the engine so kept the other off the original paid for that fitting and has been fine, but now has an occasional drip only when cold though and last a couple mins, also not long after i bought it the eas gave up so it got britpart hd springs on as couldnt find the fault for it and gave up on that so now trouble free in that department, and over the last couple month its been smoking when started but when its warm and you put your foot down when you set off it clears and appears fine till left over night? And the smoke smells like unburnt diesel? Ive been told could be air related could be injector thats down (which i have some) could be related to diesel pump drip (which i doubt as it didnt do it when the last doesel pump leaked loads) And then the front props uj give up which i put the steering issue down to as it tries to stop you when turning slow and doesnt pull away from junctions in 1st quickly but did better when it was off too (only way i can describe it) so got a 2nd hand prop with good ujs greased them up and fitted it but still does it (but it didnt when i moved it when the prop was off??) Also the drivers heater doesnt work amd hasnt since i bought it so bought two blower motors (was only 7 quid more for two on ebay to buying one) but then when i looked someones changed the plug or been messing with it so must be electrical which i dont do so put the cover back on and left them, and therear passenger outer light has a little bit off the top missing. And could do with track rod ends (60 on ebay for new arms with rods so cheap enough) and cant let it go under a quater on diesel or it sometimes runs out. And also geabox cooler pipes are leaking(which is part of the setting off quick in 1st issue) but again only 70 to replace new on ebay
So as i say its now going i give up and im getting a disco could be an easy fix for someone with time and patience but im giving up, i know ive probably made ot sound bad but im honest and ive driven it the last 3 month with the smoke and done a couple 1000 as my mum and dads is 300 mile round trip, and its fine and clears up once warm and put your foot down then stays clear till left over night again.

So good points are,
Mot till 10th of april
Full cram leather in good conditon compared to most
All wood trim
Hi/lo box both work (which is rare)
Cars done 191k but engines roughly 140k now
Pioneer cd player
Tinted windows all round
No faults on dash (unlike most where it doesnt stop beeping when you turn it on lol)
2 month old hd spring kit
16" hse wheels with genral grabber a/t's on
Original owners wallet with all codes in
Logbook in my name (i have owned it 6-7 month so obvious i have it but best state so)
All windows etc work
New battery 3 month ago
2nd hand alternator fitted 2 month ago
Lower milage engine in
No eas, aircon or sunroof to worry about
Never had welding done chassis clean and body works clean for the year
Boot full of bits in the box there is the diesel pump that came off which you could recondition and sell or fit or sell as it is as there doing 100 spares repairs, wiring and ecu that came with 2nd hand engine (it worked when i plugged it in so never bothered swapping it all dont know if the ecu could be related to the smoke issue but havemt tried as i dont want the car to throw a wobbley fron swapping it) front prop with broke uj, alternator that was faulty, and some injectors as got told it could be related to them but never got round to it. Also the front splitter thats missing as it got pulled off on green lane but i kept it.

Bad points,
Smoke when cold as mentioned above
Drivers heater doesnt work nor does the heated seats or heated windscreen
Chip off rear light as mentioned
Issues related to front prop which is mentioned above (also i can remove it for you take home if you would prefer as it drives better just isnt 4wd)
To front tyres are still legal but have outer wear
Track rods
Cooler pipes
Some light scratches down the sides off bushes when i went on a light green lane outing but they are light so will probably polish out
and anything ive missed from above.
And needs a wash as it still comes up lovely which i will try do before someone views.
Any questions ask away and ill try get back asap, Im located in hobson ne16 area. Price is 1200 ono. And due to ebay rules cant swap or px with cash against a disco 2 v8 with lpg or possibly a td5. Thanks sam
