Description
Showing 179,363 miles;
five-cylinder turbo diesel engine; manual gearbox; tow bar
The Land
Rover Discovery revolutionised the 4x4 market when introduced, successfully
combining genuine off-road ability with family-friendly practicality. By the
time the Td5 arrived, the Discovery had matured into one of the most capable and
versatile tow vehicles on the road, earning a loyal following that continues to
this day.
First registered in 1998, this Discovery Td5 S Estate is
powered by Land Rover's durable and highly regarded five-cylinder turbo diesel
engine, coupled to a manual gearbox. Finished in attractive Metallic Gold and
fitted with a set of later alloy wheels, it presents as an honest and purposeful
example that has clearly been used as intended.
Showing 179,363 miles,
the Discovery has been employed regularly as a tow vehicle, moving classic cars
and undertaking the sort of work for which these vehicles are renowned.
Demonstrating its continued capability, it was driven some 50 miles to the sale
whilst towing the car trailer that is also entered in this auction.
The
vendor describes the Discovery as a dependable workhorse and a highly capable
towing vehicle, reporting that it pairs particularly well with the accompanying
trailer and comfortably handles towing duties even with a vehicle loaded
onboard. Such real-world use is often the best endorsement of any tow car, and
this Discovery appears to continue fulfilling that role
admirably.
