Car Forum / Land Rover Cars / May 2007Disco 300 series Tdi Non Runner- Rolling Chassis
MoT'd until november, 1995(N)- GS specs, 5 matching road legal tyres, new exhaust. What should I ask for it, if I sell it as spares or repair? G.B.P. only. > MoT'd until november, 1995(N)- GS specs, 5 matching road legal tyres, new > exhaust. > > What should I ask for it, if I sell it as spares or repair? > G.B.P. only. Why is it a non runner? What is actually wrong with it?

Get Windows updates in Firefox I burnt a big hole in my number one piston and melted it a little, thus doing this have gouged a 2 m.m. deep scratch down the bore,I contemplated buying a short engine to get it back on the road, but I do not know whether it has scored the lower bores, as i have this information off a mechanic friend, I have not seen the actual damage, I haven't got facilities to do my self and if i add the cost of a re-con + labour charges, I would see a whacking chunk of cash disapear. So I believe a sale of the rolling chassis would be more beneficial to me, as Whoever purchaces this and has the facilities and know how, they will pick up a great disco. >> MoT'd until november, 1995(N)- GS specs, 5 matching road legal tyres, new >> exhaust.

You are asking a question similar to how big is a cardboard box? without seeing the beast and checking out for the usual troubles there is no way of guessing at a price remember you didn't specify if it has an MOT or what mileage it has done I have seen cars decribed as mint which were accurate in so far as they resembled a packet of polo's i.e. full of holes. A replacement engine off fleabay could cost between 400 and 1000 quid ( I noticed a couple of short motors which would work out cheaper ) add in labour at around £150-200 and take that off what you think the car is worth then put it on ebay with a reserve how much well if you want rid try the low end of that price but start the auction off lowish to generate interest.Good luck with it you could do well but look how many complete T&T Disco's on ebay are fetching less than a grand.

I suppose I did quite well with my P reg 300 Tdi ES then, shot synchro on 1st, 225000 miles, I month T&T left but good nick and new tyres. Went to a girlie for 2k who was prepared to pay some 6-700 insurance- she didn't have any ncb. TonyB >>> MoT'd until november, 1995(N)- GS specs, 5 matching road legal tyres, >>> new exhaust.

I was looking at ebay tonite these two 270122280482 270122281413 didn't actually get a bid still you never can tell what anything will fetch on the day really nice when you get a few bidders fighting it out to the end- so its always worth trying, That is some insurance bill to go tho' who says middle age is bad Derek "TonyB" > I suppose I did quite well with my P reg 300 Tdi ES then, shot synchro on > 1st, 225000 miles, > I month T&T left but good nick and new tyres.

Couldn't have been worth more than the price of the tyres, road tax and £500. Say £800 all in. Huw |
