So my disco is gonna be up for sale as soon as my Td5 is fixed probably in a few weeks time so you have time to come and see it as im no hurry as im still using it.
So its a 1995 300tdi auto with 218k on the clock but saying that its the most reliable car ive ever owned it never fails to start, and ive owned it for 7 yrs ive done alot of off roading in it and its been great so the paintwork is a little flat but ive painted it with the right basecoat colour so its not all scratched up as its my daily driver, its a little sluggish when cold for a couple of mins but fine when warmed up, auto box works well and changes as it should, the high and low box and diff locks all work, its fitted with a tubular winch bumper and winch which is working but only winches in, i did fit a new solenoid but that didnt fix it, its probably a simple wiring fault and it has a remote which works, steering guard fitted, ive boxed the sills and it has rock sliders, its on some chunky tyres but they are quite cracked but there is a good set of BFG muds on rims to go with it, it has a working CB with a thunderpole ariel on the winch bumper, A good cd player with usb input for ipods or charging phones, I fitted a heavy duty battery a few yrs ago, a new power steering pump was fitted a year or so ago, i have the origional front bumper if you want it, its got 30mm spacers all round its been EGR blanked, the front seats arent great but i have a good pair to go with it, it had big spots on the front but im keeping them so its already wired to work off the full beam and flashers, it runs on oil in the summer with no problems, Its been a fantasticly reliable landy and i will be sad to see her go but i havent been off roading for a couple of yrs and i dont need two lol.
With all the kit on it im looking for around £1000 ovno if you want to know anything else just ask, Just went to check the MOT and it expired a few days a go, opps, so it will have a yrs mot aswell lol

Its not been done since ive owned it and no sorry that wouldnt tempt me lol, i think im gonna be quite tough on the price as its got alot of kit on it, thanks jonny
 
Is there any rust that needs sorting out (what's been done already)? I've got a 300TDI full of holes but mechanically sound, just trying to decide whether to buy another disco or repair it. The MOT on yours shows an expiry on 23/Oct/16 but more than happy if it comes with a new one (any advisories to sort?). Thanks
 
Hello owriter, well she passed the mot there were 2 advisories, the track rod end had a little play in it and the small brake pipe on the rear axle needs doing in the near future but thats it, as far as rust is concerened ive done loads, a new boot floor a few yrs ago i cut the cills off and boxed it, the front inner wings have been repaired a couple of times but obviously you now have a year to tinker with it lol, did you want to come and see it ?
 
May have a friend with some interest in it... i'll get in contact directly if he wants it :)
What are the BFG Muds size and condition wise and I take it they come with it as part of the £1000?
 
Hi Ben yes thats cool, the muds are all in good nick 225 75 16 i only took em off as one was getting a bit low but i got another, and yes they are included in the price, and they are on ES alloys aswell, cheers
