Thanks for the feedback... yea! I'm definately going to trash the "rebuilt title" one and go look at my other, cleaner option

Here it is :

2004 Land Rover Discovery SE7 SUV - New Brunswick Cars For Sale - Kijiji New Brunswick Canada.

Vehicle mileage is in Km's so that is about 77K miles

I looked at the two on this forum and as the G4 is nice, it is a tad bit to flashy for me in that orange. The other white one is sweeet but mileage is too high for my liking

Thanks again

Congratulations and welcome to the world of Rover ownership!

I have to ask the obligatory questions:
- Has the front drive shaft been replaced? If not, then you need to do so right now!
- Did it come with service records?
- Pictures? ;-)

My question or request for input is that I'm currently looking at two options :

1. 04 Disco SE7 with 60,000miles, great shape, new sneakers, older guy owns it and had many fancy vehicles... catch is that it is a rebuild title and according to him might of had a slight roll

2. 04 Disco SE7 with 77,000miles, also great shape, a little bit more details on repairs and maintenance done (i.e. new plugs and wires, brakes, exhaust)

what would be things to look at for a vehicles that might of encountered being rolled and fixed?

Thanks in advance for any help

Before you buy one sense you have never owned one before, pay and have a good Rover mechanic do a pre-purchase inspection, it will save you money in the long run.
