Land Rover Discovery

Probably a stupid one but I've brought a 2003 Disco ES model that's in fairly good nick and it's just going to be a towing/occasional use car

 

Just wondered, are they appreciating in price or not otherwise I was thinking of dry storing it but not as it could just be a waste of time

Mk1 3-doors are worth quite a lot now...especially with the side by side rear seat option in the boot space

I think the price has been fairly stagnant on them for the last few years. £3k ish is around average selling price with a really good one fetching £5-6k. Unless your planning on storing it for quite a few years I’d just use it.

I paid £975 for this on 155k miles - might just use it for now and see what happens

They are, sadly, worth more in parts than as whole vehicles.

 

A good one for around £5/6k is a hell of a lot of car for the money.

 

If you bought a good one for £975 either enjoy it knowing it cannot depreciate or flip it straight away and triple (or more) your money if it really is good.

Yeh okay thanks for everyone's help - think I'll keep it and use it for what I got it for

Good towing truck given Grabbers or similar rubber.

 

I ran an 03 Plate TD5 ES to  262,000 miles OK.
