Beardo's 1991 2001Td1 D1, 2003 TD5 D2 and 2004 4.6 V8 D2.

I need a place to write about our newest kid in the house, a 1991 200 Tdi Discovery 1, her name is Cowberry.

So, this will be a build blog for that, and some occasional things about our other discos in the meanwhile.
I tend to put up plenty of pics, so try and hang on..

I found a dirt cheap (I bargained a LOT off) Discovery 1, that runs and starts very nice.
It has 491.000 km on the dial, last MOT was in 2015 at 486.000km.
PLENTY of body rot, so "some" welding needs to be done, and I need to buy a welder and learn.
It's been some ~26 years since last time I have welded at school.

Well, a small intro done, I'll start dropping pics etc soon, but as a teaser...

2004 "Black Betty" and 1991 "Cowberry"


And some closer pics.

Good luck with the journey, it will be fun .

I think.

A good way to sharpen those welding skills! That carpet looks like an acquired taste though…

A whole load of pics of the interior corrosion damages.

And an Instagram account for Cowberry has been made -> https://www.instagram.com/cowberry_d1/
