Default Deal o not deal???? Need experience opinion

I'm looking for a Disco, and I found this one, do you guys think is a good deal? I don't know if getting a Disco with 100k miles on it is a good idea, even with the waranty so I would love a few opinions

First of all, those aren't 18 inch hurricane wheels. Those are the G4 16 inch wheels( which is even better). You sure you have pictures of the right vehicle ???

This is a 2003, and if that warranty is for real and issued by a reputable company, I say that it's definitely worth checking out.

Just talk to the dealer about the waranty, and it is with this company http://www.autosave.com/ I will do some research on it, but I'm on my way out right now, so will have to be when I get back, does any one knows any thing about them?

TY for you reply "DAROVER" you are right, I like those wheels better too, what do you think about the 100k miles?

Do not let the miles scare you.
And yes we know a thing or two about Land Rovers. If the warrenty is included at no additional charge it is a really good deal.
With the price of gas right now and what they are predicting for this summer...that is probally why the price is so low.

Bring it to a shop have them look over it and if everything checks out thats a great deal. If you havent already, take a look at carfax and be sure everything is good on that as well. If they dont let you bring it to a shop thats a bad sign. I had one place that said "we dont have time to let you bring it to a shop" HA! So i "test drove" it toa shopand found it was messed up majorly. I brought it back with a copy of everything wrong, put they keys on the desk and left. I also put a copy of the problems in the glove box. So TRY and bring it to any mech. you like/trust. Most places will check over it for cheap, or free. Good luck, just ask if you have any other ?'s.

Even if you can't get it for free, most places will do a multi-point or 'pre-purchase' inspection for anywhere from 20-80 bucks. Even at $80, that's not much if the vehicle has alot of problems
