    Disco 1 Insurance for 3rd Party sat in a field!

    I appreciate that, but got my quote a good few weeks ago, and also never expected a 50% increase - a little steep to me.....

    Disco 1 Insurance for 3rd Party sat in a field!

    I am insured with Adrian Flux for all of my policies - 4 in total. We have a Disco 1 (1995 300 tdi) that is sat in a field that my sons drives around, never goes out on the road and we insure this 3rd party fire and theft (just to be on the safe side). We only got this last year, and insurance...

    I was going to make this into a little off roader, but it was too nice to chop up. I then decided I was going to use it, so did absolutely everything to it and it flew through MOT in the middle of May. Now my D1 needs a new gearbox so that is now priority, so this has to go.... 2006 ‘56’...

    Disco 1 300 Auto Box

    I remember the govenor bring mentioned before. I am just waiting for funds from a project I am finishing and will then start from the top and look what I can change first and the costs involved as oppose d to fitting a new box. I got all the adjustments for cable from Ashcroft. Oils have all...

    Disco 1 300 Auto Box

    It skips around in the lower gears. When it changes up, a way to describe it is it rides the clutch almost as revs up to limit before going into gear. Worst part is it's intermittent so it can behave itself and change properly. I did wonder if it was the lockdown cable and setup as looks...

    Disco 1 300 Auto Box

    Well, I am giving up on my auto box jumping around all over, so going to go down the route of putting in a new box. My question is, is there a better box to replace mine with? Its the fly by wire version in a 1996. Have heard the ones from a V8 are stronger, but not sure if that is true or...

    Disco 2 LED light bars

    To be fair, the Cooper Discoverer STT pro's I have fitted are extremely quiet for muds - believe it or not, no noise increase from when I switched from BFG All Terrains :)

    Disco 2 LED light bars

    I have mine on a 2 way relay. So they are on with main beam, off completely or on independently of lights for when we are camping. Noise - mmm, don't really notice too much noise over the noise of the D1 :D

    New wheels for the disco

    Plus if they are not offset wheels you will need to adjust the steering bump stops to avoid rubbing, or if they are offset, extended arches will be required ;)

    Automatic select decals

    I made a set up on the printer till I found a cheap assembly on flea bay, as couldn't find them separately at all (searched for years!!).

    Disco 1 Movement in upper steering column ????

    Thanks for the replies guys. I have put a call to the tester to see what his comments are, but thought I would ask on here in the meantime to see if anyone was familiar with this, as couldn't see much when I searched. ER1C - I cannot increase the size of your pic, so cannot see where the 'tie...

    Disco 1 Movement in upper steering column ????

    Just got another years MOT sorted, and this came back on the advisory:- 'Movement in upper steering column' When I enquired about it, they guy that was left at the place wasn't actually sure (I do trust the garage by the way - they are a good Land Rover place ;)). So my question is, I know my...
