Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1997 Land Rover Discovery, a 2.5L diesel with XS trim and 159,000 miles, is being sold with 'No Reserve'. Crucially, the brakes are non-functional, indicating significant mechanical attention is required.
With only two keys and the V5 on site, the vehicle has been with the current owner for 6 years. The lack of MOT and the non-working brakes point to a vehicle needing substantial work before it can be safely operated.
Condition
2
The vehicle has significant mechanical issues as the brakes do not work. The listing also indicates it is a 'No Reserve' auction and has a low guide price, suggesting potential underlying issues beyond just the brakes.
