    What Engine is this?!

    Struggling to find evidence of what engine this is or easiest way to identify it… help would be much appreciated. It’s in a 1994 County. I think it’s a 200TDI

    Removing side steps

    I’ve got folding steps that came fitted, trying to remove them.... passenger side is easy! But because of the fuel tank on the other side I can’t get to the back of one of the bolts... is there a nack to removing them? Please don’t say I have to remove the fuel tank!

    Changing wheels 1994 county

    Thanks for all your advice.... after some thought I’m probably going to keep the rostyles on and get them re painted and change the tyres.... so the next question is can I fit tubeless tyres? And if so does this restrict choice?

    Changing wheels 1994 county

    I am looking to better fill up the arch space, give it a more substantial look. I think it looks a little perched on its current wheels. And to fit a tyre suited for mild off road use. But I want to keep the classic look hence the white steel wheel... yes a budget but that’s just not to spend...

    Changing wheels 1994 county

    Thanks all, that’s great. So as far as getting a larger tyre... what’s the biggest off road style tyre you can fit in the standard steels? Thinking the BF Goodrich type ones with medium tread

    Changing wheels 1994 county

    Here it is.... so I’m thinking solid steel wheels and bigger tyres to fill the arch space

    Disco 2 reduced MPG

    I've got a 51 plate disco 2, I use it to tow a horse box and just as a general work horse. It used to do about 26 mpg which I was happy with. But now it's doing something like 17, I haven't changed the way I drive or what I use it for. It's just had an MOT and they've done 'all the checks' and...
