For Sale: 2001 Land Rover Discovery in Atlanta, Georgia

Vehicle Description

Details

This classic 2001 Land Rover Discovery Series II SE offers the heritage and unmatched off-road capability of the Land Rover brand with traditional “Disco” style. This two-owner vehicle has been cared for by the current owner for the past 20 years and diligently maintained (including significant recent service) by a dedicated Land Rover shop. It shows 195K miles on the odometer and still turns heads with its original green paint and beige leather interior stadium seating.

 

Powered by a robust 4.0L V8 and automatic transmission driving all four wheels through a 2-speed differential it includes standard features like 4-wheel electronic traction control and hill descent control. Interior features like power-adjustable front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and dual moonroofs allow occupants to travel in comfort on and off-road.

 

The truck was acquired by the current owner in 2004, and they’ve added minimalistic modifications like crossbars and extensions to the roof rack, a black bonnet hood decal, and an aftermarket Kenwood Bluetooth stereo with hands-free phone integration. The result is a Discovery with classic appeal and essential modern technology.

 

Originally from NC, it was purchased by the current owner as a certified pre-owned vehicle with 37K miles and has been looked after with great care since. For the buyer with some patience and LR experience, this Disco has much to offer.

 

This Discovery II is available in Georgia as a Premium Listing on CLASSIC.COM and is being sold by Parker Frazer.

 

About the model

The second generation of Land Rover Discovery is known as the Discovery 2. Introduced in 1998, the second-gen Discovery saw many interior and exterior upgrades to give the model a more cosmopolitan appearance. The Discovery 2 also featured a longer wheelbase to give passengers more room. Gas engined Discovery's were fitted with a range of V8 engines, while the diesel variant featured a turbocharged inline five. The model received a facelift for 2003 which featured distinctive front headlights. The Discovery 2 was in production until 2004
