    Disco 2 D2 as a main vehicle?

    Here you go. Very much enjoying driving although have noticed the temp gauge dropping occasionally. Going to top up coolant which is a bit low and go from there as I see there are lots of possible causes for this on the forum. Totally amazed at the engine bay as I have been busy working on my...

    Well. I picked her up this evening. 3k sealed the deal. Drove back 30 miles. Was amazing. Everything great for now!

    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    End up drilling through the fitting as it had completely rounded off. End came off so was able to take gear out for wiper. Now ready for new motor and wiper kit.

    Disco 2 D2 as a main vehicle?

    Thanks. The second one I viewed had same but only on drivers side. There is rust starting to bubble paint on top of windscreen so that could be it?

    Short update. The guy hasn’t been able to sell. has reduced the price from £3900 to £3250 dropping a bit each week. I am tempted I must say although the wet driver’s floor is a worry. The other one I saw had wet floors throughout so I guess this is progress!

    Disco 1 Galvanised chassis for D1 ...

    Thanks. Yes I am still doing my own research on stainless steel. on closer inspection it seems they might not be right for my 90 as mine is pre 200tdi and their bulkheads go on from that. I may just stick with a galvanised one from a U.K. supplier. They are mainly around 1800. wishing you...

    Disco 1 Galvanised chassis for D1 ...

    Hi just wondered how you got on with Maer? I have seen lots of adverts for them and I have just had a look at their website for a new bulkhead for my 90 and they are quoting 1499 for a stainless steel one which is at least half as much as a similar a s/s version in the U.K. It seems too...

    Bonnet catch return spring help

    worth checking John Craddock’s eBay shop as they are slightly cheaper than their website and give free delivery no matter what the price of the order. It’s not all parts but a good selection. Does slightly irk me that they can’t offer same facilities on their own site when it presumably comes...

    Bonnet catch return spring help

    I see. That is that’s very helpful. Currently have a bag of all the bits to fit but when it’s not there to start with it’s a little confusing!

    Bonnet catch return spring help

    That’s interesting. I thought the spring end went into the adjustable plates and not the hole. my 90 has nothing so I am currently piecing it together. Same as you, found diagrams very helpful to know what I needed to order but not necessarily where it goes! Obviously it is so simple, even...

    Thanks. think chassis issues and price in the end killed that one for me.

    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    I have today swapped my steering wheel as the one previously was bent at the mount and was catching on the cowl. No idea how you bend a steering wheel that way! But now fixed.

    Disco 2 D2 as a main vehicle?

    I expect neglect as I asked him when timing belt was changed and he said he didn’t think it had been. He’s owned it for 12 years!

    I might if I wasn’t intending to use it immediately for a daily runner. Don’t want it sat off road for a while. and I would prefer to spend some of that on a better one (if they exist)
