Welcome. :)

My dad was on a Toyota forum last week enquiring about Aygo clutch problems. Some 'helpful' person suggested he feed the hamsters in his scale model of a vehicle, sell it on and buy a full size vehicle. He was less than impressed, I just wondered which one of you it was! :D:D:D

Sureterm 4x4 were quite reasonable for me, they give discounts for members of land Rover clubs, so you could try them for a quote..... husband used Frank Pickles for the modded discos but think Flux may have bought them out...

Waiting for a day off to strip ruby's engine down, but it is a real possibility that she'll need a replacement. Will contact you to see if it still available when we know the state of play :)

Thanks for the info, wil try to have a sensible conversation with my husband tomorrow, haven't seen him today without 3 kids scrambling for attention and talking over us, so need to pick my moment. :o I'm definitely on the side of fixing it, (better the devil you know and all that) as for the...

It's a hard one. Husband is really handy with tools, we usually manage to muddle it through together he has the strength,(my joints aren't up to it) I can do other bits. On the 200s we replaced diff, axles, gearbox and transfer box, all sorts, it's mainly a time issue for us.... I thought I...

Yes everything all good, she's just had a new water pump, alternator and steering box, she is ideal for what I need with 7 seats when needed, easy access when my pain is bad, easy to get kids in and out of, and boot is big enough for wheelchair or moby scooter AND shopping etc. So my thought is...

Mechanic has looked at Ruby and her head gasket has gone. She is a 1998 300 tdi es auto. Has done 285,000 MOT in july indicated that sills will need repair/ replace for next year. We have 600 in our emergency vehicle fund, so do we put it towards fixing her, or do we cut our losses and weigh...

Hiya do you still have the heater matrix, blower motor and controls?

Hello, and welcome :)

To save fuel on long journeys :D:D:D

No, I jist had faith that the people I was laning with wouldn't abandon me if I did get stuck ;)

Yep, had some great fun in my first Disco, all standard but with BFG A/T boots. Kids loved seeing her all covered in mud on Monday morning school run :D

I didn't mean the actual steam fair people, but there seems to be a definite increase in thefts at this time of year, don't know if people come down for the fair, as usually goes quiet not long after, but yeah probably is just rough tourist types too, whoever they're cheeky f***ers!

Steam fair pikeys at it already?? Have heard of various metal disappearing in the last week around Upton and Nuffield industrial estates. :banghead: It seems to last longer every year:rolleyes: Glad they didn't get him :)

Will have a word with my mates marine husband then, thanks. Have been on Landy Watch and ordered sky tag stickers. Hopefully thief types aren't tall enough to see the back of a disco roof. :D Need to look into another immobiliser thing too, as this one is fried. :banghead: Can't cope with...

You could possibly put a PMPT sticker on your windscreen to deter the would-be's! Hi Half sorted, she needs some wiring and relays replacing, but as he is doing it at 'mates rates' may take a while ;) Am probably being really thick, buy what is PMPT?

That is a bonus. Breakdown man was gutted that my son wasn't more excited to go in his truck, but it was only 5 weeks from the previous one :D

As an easy accessible vehicle for me with dodgy back and pelvis issues, I was struggling to get out of Mondeo, so needed something higher to fall down out of rather than struggle up from. Saw the potential for fun in a disco, so went for it. On my 3rd now! :D

After talking to an auto electrician today, I thought I should warn people that my 1998 Disco 300tdi Auto was tampered with while parked up in Poole town centre, with the intention that I would leave it there and then the thrives would return late at night and have her away! I parked her up in...
