Be patient folks. Y’all know kinja takes a couple minutes for the link to show up. This one will be worth waiting for Manuel to show up. Yup. Manuel.

Do it.
Actually a good idea (to me at least) is a Toyota Sequoia. Reliable, nice, around your budget.

If that’s a Disco II it’ll be the worst car you’ll ever buy.

One of 96 my ass. There’s at least a dozen in my city alone, manual discos that is. He’s asking too much and chances are it needs more than a “tune up” whatever he thinks that means. I’m guessing it needs heads or an engine. That guy sounds like a jackass who’s trying to scam someone by polishing his turd.

Offer a box of fine wine and a squash racket. That’s about all it’s worth

By a wide margin. I’m definitely not buying it.

Too sensible to interest me. That’s why I never contacted you about your car. Logical as it may be, I couldn’t get excited about the idea.

I work as a Land Rover tech. I know how shite these things are. Even with perfect maintenance, they are dodgy at best.
10/10 would buy just to beat. The. Hell. Out. Of.

Check and see if the rear door jams are rusted out above the rear wheels. Also check the rear section of the frame.

for 2k i would be there, poke holes in the rust and drive away at about 1800 and be happy.

Take $500 off for each light blazin’ on the dash. Which means he’ll end up having to give you $1000 to take it.

I grew up in a pretty wealthy area, so I remember how much trouble people had with these when they were new. $2000 is well past fuck-it money for me. I could see paying maybe $500 and then beating it to death.

That would be pretty sweet. There’s a Scrambler for sale on the local CL that’s tempting, but too rusty for me.

Possibly. I’d really like to get something with a manual this time though.

fuck it money is about 1250 for me. but 2g for a 5 speed? around here (Appalachian salt belt) sounds like a solid mud buggy if the front end is sorted out

Makes sense. Although I get the impression not much of anything is sorted on this particular example.

The ultimate Dr Jeckyl & Hyde. Would you believe I actually know people driving these (the diesels though) for way over 100k miles without any issues? And yet I know people trying to hang them selves after owning these for not even a year but maintenance/repairs made them almost go bankrupt? Same diesel engine. It’s like Russian Roulette. Not your best idea yet ;-)

Yeah, I don’t get the impression from this particular example that I’d end up on the happy side of that gamble.
