Hello all,

I am a Wrangler owner and have decided to move into a more 'adult' car - therefore I am going to buy a 99 Disco (I believe that is the correct terminology ) and am curious if you guys suggest getting it all checked out before buying it. THe deal almost sounds too good to be true - the owner of a garage for all BMW's/Porsche's/Rovers has a daughter who is moving away and he needs to sell her car. Anyway, the garage is buying my Wrangler from me for 4k which is well below what I had been looking for but they are giving me the Disco for 6k and it only has 83k miles and is in great condition (atleast cosmetically). Do you all suggest that I get it checked out?

He said they have taken care of it for the last two years and it's in good condition - he has to fix the sway bars (?) so I can pass inspection but other than that, he said it is good. Any suggestions on potential issues with a Disco with that many miles? Is this deal too good to be true?

Here is a picture of the rover.

Thank you!
