    Looking to buy a discovery

    As I've read it, he doesn't want to off road so I'd say he wants a standard, low mileage disco with as little rot as possible. If he's worried about colour he should go to the gaylander section.:p Why don't you try and not be a negative troll for a while John? You might just take a liking to it.;)

    Looking to buy a discovery

    Post any links you find of landies you're interested in and members can give you advice on condition / price etc and put a location in your profile, someone local to you may be willing to go and look at one with you if you bribe them...... We generally accept cake as bribing currency round here...

    Cheap veggie oil

    Veg will clean the whole system through so no need for 2 stroke, buy a few spare filters before you start using it as you'll need to change it a couple of times in the beginning.

    Cheap veggie oil

    Do it, I did it for years and saved loads on fuel (don't currently have a doozil motor) but even if you buy veg oil from cash & carry it's still less than £1 a litre. Oh and a 200tdi will run on a much higher ratio of veg than a td5, in fact it will happily run 100% veg in warm weather.;)

    What's my disco worth?

    imo It's worth a grand at most, forget how much it cost to put through the mot, that is irrelevant to a buyer. Like Pikey said, if you really want to know what it's worth stick it on ebay and see what bids it gets.

    Defenders for under £2500

    True but you run the risk of buying a complete lemon of a fender just coz you prefer the way it looks.

    Defenders for under £2500

    there is no interior in the back of a commercial disco? I understand that people may prefer defenders and they are slightly longer in the back but don't discount a disco straight away have a look at a couple and drive one then you'll see how much more you'll get for your budget. It would also...

    Defenders for under £2500

    Why does it have to be a Defender? You'll get a much newer, better condition discovery for that money, commercial or not.
