[For Sale] Land Rover Discovery 3 HSE 2006 Low Miles
Due to the impending arrival of a company car my wife's Silver Discovery 3 HSE Automatic is for sale.

In the interests of posting a correctly formatted for sale advert, here are the headline details.

It has 3 former keepers including my wife and is fully spec’d with the optional Panoramic Glass Roof. Never been used as a tow vehicle or had a tow bar installed on the chassis.

Hi thanks for your comment - I hope you aren't insinuating that I am a car dealer?
I have been a member of the Royal Air Force for the last 19 years and my wife, who's vehicle is featured in the for sale advert is an Estate Agent.
The Discovery is in excellent order as advertised and I am happy to answer any genuine enquiry.
More pictures are available on request via a photobucket link

Nice looking car, wish mine was as nice.
Might be worth having a look at the WANTED section, ISTR there have been a few threads in there. You could bung a link to this thread in each.

Thanks, received but unable to reply due to low post count. Will speak with wife in the morning and get back to you. This is slightly over budget for us, but appreciate it's a fair-ish price
