Another car for the wife
« on: 03 April 2016, 12:11:27 »
Got hold of a 07 plate X type estate for her with the 2.0D engine, hope this one last longer than the Discovery did ( which now needs welding or boxing) empty pockets again now.

I hope you checked out the sills on the X type???? they're a bugger for rotting especially behind the plastic trims  :o :o :o

And if the outers are rotten, the inners will be too!

Known issue, even with recent ones.

Decent ones do exist, and the rusty ones have a fortuitous effect on the values of the unrusty ones.

Can't see John buying without research ;)

The Disco is still here with £500 of parts in the back to fit once I have done the welding ( it is a Land Rover after all). It will be back on the road just not as quick as the wife would like, so she now drives a Jaggggggg. Until the sills go that is. :y
