I cut away the old metal to fit the side panels and went from there ;)

no air con in mine....never thought of that!

Battery MegaStore for mine - 1000CCA and fits like a glove - a very snug glove.... http://www.batterymegastore.co.uk/hankook-mf31-1000.html First one lasted 8 years, and now onto my second one, never gave me any issues

as I said, just got additional roof bars, chopped them up and welded on the different half's to make up a roof bar. I then added additional metal to the bars to make them a bit more sturdy and chunky to enable holes to be drilled to mount the cross bars. Then just line them up on the roof and...

I got some additional roof bars and modded them to fit behind the ones already in place so I could have a full length rack as and when I needed one without the extra height and weight of an expo rack that I used to have on..... Can remove the cross bars when not in use ;)

nah, sorry mate, I just offered them up and cut away until they fitted.....only tip is to cut away less metal and work from there and not hack off too much in the first go!

if you are handy with an angle grinder and welder to make up some brackets ;) Need to re-wire the setup with a couple of relays to work dipped separately from high beam too. Usual D1 maintenance :)

yup - I like lights :D:cool:

I know - there is no respect for old classics anymore......

Glad its not just me thinking that then :D

By washing it!! It looks so very different when clean - almost wrong :eek::D:cool: Will have to wait almost a month till I am at Kelmarsh LR show to get it mucky again.....

265/75/16 Mud Terrains - steering lock is excellent - no rubbing and the bump stops are wound right in ;)

I have the above -35 offset modular on mine, and they do the job well, and look good too - I think I prefer the modular to the alloy of the modded disco

Adrian flux are doing a laid up policy now for £38 which is fire and theft only, so that's what I will be doing this time.

Sold :cool: New gearbox here we come :)

Must go....sensible offers accepted £1,650.00

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

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’...

OK, thanks. Are there any guides on changing the 2 cables?
