took all the litter out, cleaned all plastics, windows, hoovered, tumbled & dried the girls' seats, washed and polished it.
It was cleaner than my house so took it for a spin in the countryside.
 
Finished fitting the swing away wheel carrier. Then I bolted the door handle from the inside of a csw rear door to the side opening tailgate... Not sure if I like it or not though

picked it up after having both front wheel bearings replaced, 1 had collapsed, and wipers done, still a long way to go but now driveable and painted
 
Sorted out my emergency tool kit, new tow rope, torch and triangle and replaced crap wiper blades with heavy duty ones...in the rain :p
 
green as it was n now white n black, but still a fair way to go

Changed the alternator yesterday. All up and running and both batteries getting charge which i suppose is what you want from your alternator. :)

Happy days.
 
I see you've finally got it back then :D

Yes Craig at long last still got bits to do like the bloody wiring!!! Got no heater or fuel gauge! Got a number for an auto electrician off ray at 4 x 41 so gonna give him a buzz n see what the damage is lol
 
Fixed a blown bulb, but it wasn't the bulb, one of the holder pins had corroded, so a quick clean sorted that.
Fixed the non-working rear door heater, fuse, simple as .. filled coolant, quite low as it's been stood a while and as I was checking everything ready to go to Stockton the weekend, I changed oil, filled clutch/brake fluid reservoirs, water bottle and generally fettled.

Sorted a toolkit, spares and strops etc into boxes that I can leave in the Disco tied up to the rear seats so it's ready for anything off-roading or green-laning!

Looked at it ... ;)
 
Not done anything to the landy other than laugh at the huge pile of Salisbury Plain mud it's dropped underneath on the factory carpark:D
 
Added some tie-down points to the Disco boot. Needs a couple more still ..
