I just test drove this
discovery The outside looks like a 10 year old car that has been taken care of but there are a couple corner dents (pretty small) and a cracked windshield. The interior is really nice.
The car starts right up (the engine was cold, I checked) and goes right into a smooth idle. The transmission shifts fast and smooth. All the electricals work. The tires are well past their usable life.
The main issues I have and I hope you all can give me some advice on are as follows:
1. The rear diff clunks when going into reverse. The owner told me about it and had me go listen while he shifted. He said it needs to be reseated (whatever that means.)
2. It wanders on the road. I had to constantly correct the steering. He said that he's used to it so he doesn't really notice it. He said that it may have something to do with the oversized tires.
3. The ABS light was on and he said it has been on for over a year.
I'm taking it in to a rover shop for a prepurchase inspection so I'll find out more info in a couple of days. But I was hoping someone here has some insights.
Thanks!
