Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
- You prefer a higher seating position: this SUV/crossover type may suit. Try getting in and out; the body shape alone does not prove extra seats or four-wheel drive.
- You would prefer less gear changing in traffic: the recorded automatic transmission may suit. Try how this exact gearbox behaves on a test drive.
Think twice if…
- You need room for several children or extra passengers: the seat count is not recorded. Confirm this exact version's seats and child-seat fit; do not assume from the model name.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 10 years old and 247,444 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
- You need servicing to fit a tight budget: Spanner estimates higher maintenance costs for this type. Get quotes for the exact engine and gearbox before committing.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
A 2016 Discovery is from the late Discovery 4 era and most examples are the 3.0‑litre V6 turbodiesel with an automatic gearbox. Key items for this diesel/auto combo are the DPF/EGR/turbo systems and the automatic gearbox service history; the model commonly has electronic air suspension and complex electronics that can be costly to repair. Parts are available in Ireland but Labour and genuine Land Rover parts tend to be expensive.
- DPF / EGR condition — signs of frequent short trips, soot deposits, or recent forced regenerations
- Automatic gearbox behaviour and service history — smooth shifting, no delayed engagement, and evidence of fluid/filter changes
- Air suspension operation — listen for noisy compressor, check for sagging or unequal ride height and failing spheres
- 4x4 transfer box and differentials — unusual noises, oil leaks or warning lights when using 4WD modes
- Third‑row seats, seat‑belt anchors and boot area — correct operation, worn latches and any signs of water ingress or damp
