so that's a win-win then :cool::D

..also liking the idea of an LPG static tank in the garden, but maybe not much cheaper than cylinders by the time you've got all the kit in.

Good shout gaza gas, that's goin on the list ;)

Probably do the cheapo route & upgrade when the good lady starts taking complaints from the neighbours ;) They all might have a whipround if properly "motivated" he he

Henry_b, I now consider meself heducated on the matter! Good vids:) The Janspeed system sounds nice, kind of a sleeper 'til the revs get up there, but I do like the raw sound of the ctr box delete - another dilemma, but a good one this time:D Sorry to hear yours is out of action matey, hope...

You can see why I couldn't bring myself to execute my dastardly plan! Engine & gearbox seem sweet as a nut, aside from all the leaks - I compression tested him when buying & all cylinders in the green thank Gawd Deffo want to turn up the volume a bit (just a bit - no ASBO's) to hear more of...

Sorted, I checked "Picture posting for Dummies" fred, but didnt work for me (as I'm sooperdummy & not down wit da kidz) but just pasted the link in & bingo

Hmmm let me have a fiddle with them pics....

Hello all, after declaring my bromance for Bruce my D2 in the introductions section, only fair I subject you to a proper assault with some pics of him. Got lots to sort but want to keep him pretty "factory" really. That said, thinking of removing centre silencer to make give that V8 more...

Cheers Hippo! I'll post some pics of Old Bruce in the correct section along with my to-do's on him. All the best, P

Welcome Bumble, so what's the plan?

No worries, cheers Phil, I was pushing my luck leaving it this long. I'm pretty close to Sheffield so if there are any D2's being broken locally do let me know as I need a load of small clips & silly stuff for Bruce who's missing a load of bits & bobs. All the best.

Good point gold rover, I'm writing this stuff down! I thought auto, freelance, theres more about deffo but needs to be manual.

Cheers - yes, was glad of the search tool when I did those flippin ball joints - that & youtube best tools in the box :)

Phil, I'm guessing this is already at the tip, or did you hide it you sneaky so & so?!? If you've got it, let me know & I'll PM you.

....no, got that sorted no bother :oops: Good ideas gold rover 7 Henry_b, consider yourself my scapegoats when Bruce2 rolls in "It wasn't me love, they made me do it":cool:

Hello happy new year to ye all. I've already gleaned loads of useful info from you guys so time to say a proper hello & many thanks for the sooperb site & a helpful bunch of members. My story so far - I bought a 51 plate Disco 2 V8 (manual) in summer 2017 with grand plans to transplant the V8...

Yes, you've been away too long :D On behalf of the V8'ers, it's still a loss, but good to keep you in Disco-ville, hope all goes well with the new wood-burner:p

I guess it depends where it sits in the line-up. Above Disco Sport, below D5 & £40k's about right. What are Navara's - starting at early £20's? No money to be made by LR there!
