Default Need to sale my ‘01 Discovery II

Please contact me if you want it… will consider all offers… I live in Oklahoma City, OK…. You can reach me at Chris_M_Bird@me.com…

please set subject to “RE: Disco 2 for sale” so I can weed out spam…


I bought it not knowing anything about it, thought I could fix it up for a son’s first car, but I am NOT a mechanic and this seems to need more than I can handle… it just needs someone with a deeper wallet and a love for these things…

I'd recommend posting in the for sale section. Add photos,mileage, and more details. Especially pics of the frame. There's tons of D2's for sale. If you want to sell it, make it easy for the buyer to want it.

Preach. No one should have to chase a seller for basic details. A couple pics showing condition, a few basic scraps of info and major issues. Seems to be the very least a for sale ad should have. Bonus points for putting it in the actual for sale section 🤣

This is from the email he sent me yesterday along with pics.
Here are some pics… including the dash showing the new radio the other guy put in, but didn’t wire it correctly so it does not turn on, and showing the odometer… lights on dash only due to key turned but engine not turned over yet… it runs but rough, and it stuck in limp mode…
This is from another thread he has on here. Personal opinion is this is a $500 parts rig or a good LS swap candidate.
​​​​​​​I recently bought my first Land Rover... it is a used '01 Discovery II with 182,000 miles... it has lots of issues and I don't know much about auto mechanics, so I will be here reading/posting to try to fix this thing up... I am an electrician but do not have many mechanic skills or the best tools.. so any and all help is very appreciated, if anyone on here that sees this happens to be near OKC, OK, I would very much like to meet you and would like to make a friend that could help teach me how to fix this up and keep it up...

Issues known:

windshield trim is broken and falling off, back bumper is broken and continues to break apart (brittle)
the only key I was given is the Ignition key and it does NOT seem to fit the door locks, so I
can't lock it, I was NOT given any kind of remote
power steering is out, I put in fluid and it worked better for a few moments, but then went back to not working and had no fluid, could be a hose, but not sure where or how to fix it
there are MULTIPLE little hoses (possibly vacuum) that have been removed from something or another and just zip-tied up all around the front
the radio has been removed and replaced with a nice new one, but it is not secured and just slides back and forth in hole, and does not have power or work at all
front passenger window does not move with switch
neither sunroof moves at all with switch but both leaked like crazy, I have performed a fix to stop the leak for now
the horn does not work, I found the 10A fuse blown, replaced, hit horn once and fuse is blown, replaced with 15A fuse, fuse is blown on first time hitting horn, need help fixing that
I found three spark plug wires damaged or broken once I got it, bought new spark plugs and wires, while replacing wires found one was corroded and broken off into ignition coil, causing new wire not to fit into coil
engine stays in LIMP mode
​​​​​​​scanned codes and found I need to replace two O2 sensors, and maybe the camshaft position sensor, and a problem with A/C compressor
my A/C and Heater blower does NOT blow at all
