Make sure that it has been fully decontaminated - Sierra Leone was very badly effected by the Ebola epidemic and check that that company has not been involved with building or running Ebola clinics or using the vehicles in connection with the operation of the clinics......... even after 2 years in the UK. Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed! |

Good warning, that's a freebie you don't want! Would there not be decontamination quarantine bringing it back in to UK? James

I saw it advertised on social media so grabbed it then
It came from a welsh construction company who had a project out there And brought alll the vehicles back on completation 4-5 years ago Been unused all that time Here’s a couple stills from the video seller sent me Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold) 2015 Discovery 4.5 Black pack Firenze red XS 2008 Corris Grey 110 XS USW (sold) 2011 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold) |

From those shots I cant say it looks any worse than a similarly aged farmers hack/rental vehicle you'd see on sites and quarrys in the UK.
I sense you may have found the bargain of the century. 2007 - Stornoway Grey 90 XS SW - Gone 2002 - Black Discovery II - Gone 2014 - Montalcino Red 110 XS SW |

Love a good project thread.
Those wipers still look more effective than my Series 2 1951 80" S1 2.0 1995 110 300TDI 1995 90 300TDI |

I wonder if there'll be a "heritage wiper" option on the new one to achieve the same classic wiper effect!

Thanks all
it does sound like it runs fine etc just needs TLC cosmetically. But my first challenge after giving it full service and a MOT/insured on the chassis number is getting it Registered with DVLA for a 2011 registration as it is a Rest of World spec not EU emissions spec so no cat, no EGR valve and injectors and fuel maps are different, so depending on how it goes, I either get it passed by DVLA as is, or have to get it to EU spec emmisions wise, the other two options I have is wait until its 10 years old in 2 years where the rules are a lot easier to register it or break it for parts and export the parts to USA where they fetch big money. 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold) 2015 Discovery 4.5 Black pack Firenze red XS 2008 Corris Grey 110 XS USW (sold) 2011 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold) |
