Scotland 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 Commercial Manual Java BlackDiscovery 3

Just past my MoT this morning, 276,000 miles, two advisories:

Slight corrosion to brake hose ferrule.
No rear seats fitted (it's a commercial)!


The rusty rear floor section from last year must have healed itself...

MOT Pass

Mine has just passed this morning - one advisory "Offside Front Brake pad(s) wearing thin (1.1.13 (a) (ii))", which will be sorted and I can't grumble at wear and tear consumables can I?

So all good for another year! Very Happy
