You've had a time trying to sell this Rover. I've seen it up on my Clist searches for quite a few weeks and at a good price.

I've had a hard time selling this Rover, and I'm about to get my hands on a more functional 96 Discovery so as of 3/30/2011 I'll drop the asking price down to $1,500 as is and complete with replacement power steering hose, ignition coil, fuel filter, transmission kit, brand new steering damper installed and two service manuals. I have not purchased the replacement driveshaft for the rear so the Rover should be towed. This disco has new shocks and springs, 2" suspension lift kit, hid headlights, new spark plugs, new wires, fresh oil and new oil filter, new air filter and full size spare tire.

Cylinder 6 missfire. Already replaced with spark plugs and wires but still missfires. It's either the ignition coil or the fuel injector. I purchased a new ignition coil but to have a mechanic put it in is between $200-300. Plus the entire engine as well as everything else under the hood is dirty and needs to be cleaned.

Would you be willing to sell the lift kit separately?
