2010 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY 4 - 5.0 V8

KEY FACTS

• A capable go-anywhere 4x4, with a plush leather interior and a number of desirable factory options.
• It is equipped with the 5.0-litre V8 – a rare find as it was never offered in this specification in the UK – producing around 370bhp and 376lb-ft of torque, coupled with the six-speed ZF automatic transmission.
• It benefits from comprehensive recent servicing and presents very well throughout.
• Supplied new to Japan, imported to the UK very recently and re-registered in November 2020 to the vendor.

EQUIPMENT AND OPTIONS

• The Discovery 4 features improved brakes taken from the Range Rover Sport, along with thicker anti-roll bars, a revised Stability Control system and a redesigned interior.
• The 5.0-litre V8 model was only available in selected overseas markets, so it is incredibly rare to find this engine configuration among imports in the UK.
• It was specified at the factory with the Terrain Response software, the surround-view camera system, heated front and rear seats, a rear DVD player, and Harmon Kardon speakers.
• The cabin now features aftermarket LED lighting.
• Two keys and maintenance invoices for its recent services will be included.

• Air suspension with Terrain Response
• Xenon lights with DRL
• Surround cameras
• Seven seats, heated front and outboard second row
• Sunroof and rear glass screen
• Rear entertainment screen and DVD player
• iPod and USB connections
• Harman Kardon sound system 
• Dual-zone climate control
• Heated windscreen
• Interior LED lighting

CONDITION

• Two small dents can be seen on the passenger side step and nearside rear quarter respectively, though these are superficial and are only noticeable under close inspection.
• Its original Santorini Black paintwork is in good condition; with some light swirl marks and a few minor imperfections.
• Some small stone chips are visible on the front end, along with some light scratches to the door handle, a blemish to the boot lid handle and one small scratch to the nearside rear wing.
• Its cream leather upholstery is in very good shape, with just some age-related creasing to the seats, and one very small tear in the passenger door card, thought to be from someone closing the seat belt in the door jamb.
• No electrical faults have been detected.

SERVICE HISTORY

• Its last scheduled maintenance was undertaken in June 2020 at 81,025 miles, including a change of the engine oil, filters, transfer box fluid and differential oil, and double-flushing the transmission oil.
• Prior to this, Land Rover specialist Laybrick in Japan changed the engine oil and filter, while the vendor notes that the markings around the front suspension bolts suggest that the arms have recently been replaced.

SUMMARY

This Land Rover Discovery 4 is a rugged go-anywhere 4x4, with the powerful 5.0-litre V8 and a superb factory specification.
