This followed me home last night. I'll think I'll let it stay for a bit.

Very nice Erin. Looks like a good one. I'll have a good look at it on Wednesday when you bring it past.

Looks good and smart Erin

Is it a TD5 ?

Yep, TD5, 19P motor. It's a 2005 model, with around 205,000kms on the clock,and has been very well looked after.

Full service history. Previous owner was a friend's late father.

It has only done about 1,000kms in the last 3 years, so will need a good going over to make sure everything is ship-shape.

Nice Erin!!!

After repairing the damaged RH headligh wire I had a good look around the "new" Disco. It's in very good condition and looks like it's been well looked after. On the motor side, the EGR system isn't fitted and there were no faults logged when we checked it with the Nanocom. I'm sure Erin is going to have many happy miles with it.
