Possibly new owner. Need help? Advice? Opinion?
Hello all!
new member here! I have been reading the forums here and there and finally been on a journey to find a Discovery 2.
I came across this listing which sounds like it’s a good deal but maybe not? I would love everyone’s opinion.
2002 Discovery -100k Miles
Price: $5000 possible to be haggled down to $4000
according to seller:
>new headliner
>new head gasket
>passenger side window will not go down and up (easy fix)
>properly and the front sunroof is not working (easy fix)
>Keys have to be reprogrammed
>three amigo lights come off and on I’m not entirely sure why you turn the car on and Off and then back on they are gone.
from CarFax:
>Car retail value - $10k
>3 Accidents
> Great service record: regular maintenance being done, and replaced
>front driveshaft was replaced 10 years ago
have an appointment for a PPI this Monday.
I can do also do DIY stuff which is also why I’m looking at this car. Please give me your input on this car

I think that frame looks good, but I would certainly clean it up, prep is as soon as I owned it.
Seems like a very fair price, assuming the engine runs well. I would run it for a while and pay attention to the operating temperatures. I would probably do a test for exhaust gas in the coolant.
Your right, everything else is cheap.
