For new tyres try these two sites, I have used both for my TD5 and the wife's Cmax.

Both are cheap and deliver next day, lots of choice too.

i had mine delivered to my house and then paid £10 a wheel to have them put on and balanced.

Good luck with the steering issue !!

I will be getting my 85 quid back. I downloaded the rather helpful rave cd and studyed the suspension diagrams and notices the watts link for holding the axle latterly in the chasis bingo my back felt like floating on ice went under the back grabbed the wAtts link and guess what bag of bolts can move it with my hand with the full wait of the car on it and can poke a screw driver through it.

Parts on order 120 for 3 bushes but if it fixes it I will be so happy. Will post tomorrow after I have changed them

I'd be interested to see how this one turns out - any update? A colleague at work sold his Td5 as it was handling very strange and none of the garages it went to could diagnose the fault. Admittedly he never took it to the stealers or a Land Rover specialist - just traded it for a freelander.LOL.
Cheers

Finally fixed. It was os rear suspension air bag it was peKing from hundreds of tiny holes where it had perished but under the bit that folds over it's self so the suspension looked fine went up and down fine and was never flat when left over noght. Changed the bag like a new car absolutly brillant now. I love my new disco at last. Now just have to imstall cruise and fix a broken reversing sensor and I will be sorted
