selectcase Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I am going to look at a very high milage 193k 1996 300tdi se auto tomorrow. I am assured its basically in very good condition, full service history from day one with a new turner cylnder head fitted 40k miles ago.High milage due to motor way driving to work around 80 miles a day. The price is about right at just over 2k but I was wandering if 193k was just too high and starting to worry if everything will need replacing soon - impossible to tell I know but any suggestions welcome cheers will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
python Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 hi mate, when i got my 200 disco it had just over 225 tho on the clock, i was a bit worried too but as long as you go through the usual checks. service history and so on i wouldn't think too much of the mileage, in my opinion. im now over the 333,000 mark and still going strong.

disco tony Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Price dosen't seem that good considering mileage. Have a quick look on autotrader at prices for a 1996 discovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
