    Leaking diff casings, Discovery 1 commercial. 1993

    Sounds like nathan has the best idea, Although you can get heavy duty diff pans, could be time for an upgrade, There not cheap tho, a mate has done it on his 93 range rover, im sure he said £150 each or somthing for the parts ?

    cat removal

    I think that would sound better with a rear silencer fitted. 93 k plate, so you would prob get away with it at mot time. V8 sounds awesome with an exhaust fitted, im tempted to do somthing on my 98 V8 disco

    Disco 1 V8 steering wheel

    I have a 98 discovery 1 v8, The steering wheel is worn at the top and not nice to touch/use. I have looked on ebay, My steering wheel looks like a disco 2 wheel, Does anybody know if mine would be a disco 2 wheel ? Mine has an airbag in the centre of the wheel. Will a disco 2 wheel fit...

    Did you buy it ? Good luck ! Parts are relatively cheap, Rust is not cheap to fix, so check sills, inner wings anywhere underneath, back door, boot floor, and inside the rear door shuts by the latch. Check mot and if there was an advisory notice last time, could tell you a few things...
