Only Gone and bought one
Hi,
well I had placed a wanted ad, so updated that as now I have gone and bought one
fitted in with my search ideas, so only time will tell if its been a good move
Although its not started off too well
Its a Orkney Grey, manual, GS, full black leather with armrests, heated seats and heated front screen, cruise, towbar, One owner from new (she has just bought a discovery sport) FMDSH by supplying dealer, 2013 with epb, bought private from her and new mot done yesterday as part of the deal.
Jobs I know need doing, lazy front door central locking motor one of the keys is in a bad way so new shell or cover, the epb switch is peeling its chrome coating and a service will be needed at the end of the year, so nothing to drastic
But
I could have really done with out the Nail I noticed in the n/s/r/ tyre as we washed it today
have not had it 12 hours yet.
Seeing the positive side the nail is in the centre of the tread so a repair and I got to check the rear pads out when I put the spare on, noted as low on yesterdays mot and a fair few thousand miles left on them.
is it a thing with FL2 they wear the rears out before the fronts.
today it was washed, 1 side clay barred inc 2 wheels (got fed up) vacuumed out inside, all leather cleaned/fed, all glass cleaned,
all my crap sorry stuff put inside and phoned paired an air filter and central locking motor ordered
today went quick, trip out tomorrow to fuel up and get the puncture repaired and have a run around
