Hi all,
Firstly, sorry for my first message here being about asking for advice, but I've searched the forums (and most of google) but can't seem to get a straight answer to my question!
To set the scene... I've got a 1998 VW Polo that I have had up for sale as we now need a 4wd (combination of poor road conditions to the kids nursery and all this snow means a lowered polo isn't exactly ideal!) and a bloke has offered to swap me his 1990 Disco 1. Now, I know nothing about Disco's so I've been searching around for info on them to work out if it's a good deal or not...
Can anyone give me any advice?
Here's the full info I've got from him over the past few days:
Disco 1 1990 2.5 TDi 3 door, 208k, brakes need bleeding, tyres and suspension fine, all electrics working fine, lots of history, rust hole in engine bay (size of a 5p, not structural and dry, not got any bigger in the 4 years he's had it), Tax till end Jan, Test till April, 2 inch lift kit, pro comp springs and dampers with spring guards, wax oiled underneath, polybushed, new boot floor, dislocation cones, weller steels, cooper discoverer st tyres, safari snorkel, brownchurch roof rack, front bar with two spotlights, sump guard, rear arches are camel but, sills are mint, cb radio.
And here's my car, that I may swap... worth up to £1200:
Volkswagen : Modified VW Polo - Stunning Example - For sale or swap
Any advice? Sorry again!
