putting 900kg in a disco is doable but add in a driver and some fuel you are over a tonne, now if my memory serves me well that would put you at about 3.020 ish tonnes which is over your Maximum weight of 2750kg.

I would do a couple of runs tbh mate, not worth the fine if they pull ya and you will have a hell of a job loading that to get the thing to sit level and not look overloaded, Im sure the vehicle could take it (if your chassis isnt rotten - it is a d2 isnt it?) but is it worth the hassle if you do get pulled?
