Anybody throw some rough costs (the exhaust isn't going to be the easiest) to fix the following.
It's an L reg ('93 / 94) Discovery 3.8 V8
it's out of MOT but reasonably priced so trying to guestimate how much it'd cost to MOT from what he's said.
hi, its only been in for a pre mot check, nothing to major, blowing exhaust bump stop missing front anti roll bar bushes indicators showing white hand brake low effort front brake pads low..

any good. set of yellow indicators about £4, if rear lenses failed £10 each on ebay. caliper repair kits are cheap if calipers are to blame for hand brake issue, and cables about £30.00 brand new if streched cables0 -
How cheap is cheap?
Why is he not getting it through an MOT?
If the answers to those two questions are debatable perhaps there is something else they are not telling you.
Without an MOT it is a scrapper and should be treated as such don't overpay. On a car of that age there will be a lot of rot, check sills, around the rear doors (top of wheel arch) and thoroughly underneath.0 -
cheers people, he'd sold it by this morning anyway so i missed out...0
