That's true but she hasn't been off road before and given the general condition I'm certain it's not an issue at moment, but as you say, following my play on Sunday I will need to make sure it's thoroughly cleansed afterwards

Two great conversations this week. On Sunday I took her for her fortnightly valet. Tried a different place this week, the boss came out and spent twenty minutes telling me how lovely my car was and 10 minutes trying to get me to accept 5k for her. Then I took her for her MOT today, advisories...

Hi, I'm desperate to take my new toy out on some relatively easy lanes. Novice so need some help. I was hoping that some peeps be used for show Ng me the ropes his coming sarurday in derbyshire? Nothing to serious as my disco is also my daily commune :)

Ok, look forward to it matey

He did not (and doesn't) fi the egr blanking. But he gave me advice on how to do it. It's very simple. He hooked my car up to diagnostics upon arrival, no faults (bonus as I paid a lot for the car). He said the air flow was low, so unplugged MAF sensor and advised me to replace. The remap is...

I'm in north Nottingham, easy access to m1

I'm in if you organise something

Hello all, I am in North nottingham and new to 4x4 life!! Looking for some local peeps who know some decent green lane /off roads that would be happy to meet on weekends to show me the ropes. Don't wanna abuse my disco (it's my daily commute) but do want to get it a bit muddy!

Hello, I have a discovery 2.5td (standard) that I am keen to try on the green and brown stuff. As a novice nothing to tricky to start with please. I am looking for a couple of other peeps to go with who can show me the ropes. I'm based in Nottinghamshire. Let me know if your up for helping out...

My word, what a difference. So much faster from about 1100 rpm. Alamo the as quick as my 2.5 5series was!! A lot tyke smoke if I boot it down at speed as gearbox drops two gears down. She flys my friends she flies!!!!!

Thanks buddy yes, on reflection i think i will leave them on. i alternate between wanting it to look like a range and wanting the rough tough utilitarian look. guess thats what makes these vehicles look so good. Its being chipped tomorrow :) can't wait for the long drive home on Friday!

That v nice, disco 3. What model?

Thanks, I have spoken to Dynachip.....they seem to have great reviews. I told him I want the egr blanking off as well. He will give me a Copy of he current map and I assume the eka code.i have three keys in total and the all seem to work ok manually and blipper.

Thanks Brian. I will keep the bar, I need to take It off and clean it up a little as it's starting to corrode, nothing serious but.....thanks for the advice on the wax oil, I'll find someone local to re do it in the next few months.

Where abouts r u in nottts? I probably saw about 15 and like u ended up going way outside area. Once I get mine chipped can compare performance one weekend. I'm also looking for somewhere local where can do light off roading

Hucknall, where did you get yours from? I almost brought a disco 3 but for the same money I was looking at 130k plus miles and the ones I saw all had various faults that the garages said "would be sorted on sale". I wasn't convinced tho. Ended up getting her from a landy specialist, Churchill 4x4

That looks tidy mate!

Apparently wax oiled 3 years ago. I am No expert but had a look underneath, I think until I got it the most off road it had ever done was mount a kerb! The light guards are held in with alum key and metal , Iay leave them in place unless its relatively cheap to have them Filled and...

Hello all, I have recently paid 7.5k for a 2003 2.5td disco with 103k miles. Base model as well but I has had a leather interior and ghastly wood effect added! I paid so much as it has a full service history and loads of bills. It's mint and in the first 3 weeks I have driven it over 1.2k miles...
