    Thank you Brian. I have just spent the last hour searching through a lot of headlight improvement threads. Think I will be buying the Boomslang upgrade wiring loom and some uprated bulbs!!

    Disco 1 New MOT - now for some headlight inspiration!

    Managed to get the Disco through the test today....with no advisories!!!! Only just as had a headlight go dim on the ramp and tester told me to sort it quickly!! Turns out the plastic headlight connector has seen better days so before I go and get some replacements thought I would ask what...

    Disco 1 Rear bumper removal

    Don't despair. I think mine was worse and not the hardest to repair! Undo the rear mounts and you can lift the body enough to get some working room. I am sure I posted a few pics when I done mine. It was my first repair job! My rear mounts where also shot so I think a used the YRM over boot...

    Disco 1 Rear bumper removal

    If you cant undo the main bolts you can take the bumper lights out and access another set from the hole. Don't be surprised if on dropping the bumper you find the rear cross member needs a bit of TLC. Bumper corners come off with bumper. Extra pair of hands is useful!!!!

    All Terrain V's Mud Terrain tyres

    I had some general grabber AT2 tyres that where great on road and green laning. Unfortunately at home I have a very wet slippy grass bank that I need to get up in the winter. The AT2 is not getting me up there so I went for a set of Insa Turbo Saharas that make it most of the time apart from...

    Disco 2 Snorkel or not?

    Or you do occasional off roading and follow someone else into a puddle that you didn't check first!!!! What idiot would do that you may say but it can be easily done.

    Salisbury Plain - Off the ranges

    Very good day out. I bottled out of the puddle in the video above then very stupidly followed him into a deeper one that came over the bonnet of the Disco!!! Got away with it by the skin of my teeth and will be adding a snorkel and breathers in the very near future!!!

    P38 2.5 Nanacom Faults

    Replaced the I tank pump recently as that was part of a starting problem so with all that has been said been pricing up parts for the timing chain replacement. I was surprised to find the kits do not include the sprockets. Is it a case of stripping to see what they are like or should you change...

    Car is on 115000miles. From previous history there is ne record of FIP being changed. I have very fortunately been discussing this with the wife this evening and she has produced the laptop that has the complete software loaded to use the faultmate to its full extent so hopefully tomorrow I can...

    P38 2.5 Nanacom Faults

    Hi Everyone It now looks like I might actually be able to sort out the P38 as some funds are available that I need to spend wisely. I have replaced in tank pump and glow plugs and car is starting and ticking over. When you blip the throttle the revs are holding for a second and then dropping...
