Got a chance to buy a k reg Disco (200tdi?) mot failure for £400...
I need the alternator, power steering pump off a 200tdi and an electric fan (which this motor has one on) anyway so I'm tempted to just buy this, use what I need, keep the engine then break what's left.

Is there anything else on a disco which would be worth keeping for my defender?
I'm thinking I should atleast make my money back after I've sold bits and then scrapped the rest?

Cheers, Butch!
 
I haven't got the space to keep the axles etc unfortunately! I will keep the engine though, maybe have a go at rebuilding it at some time in the future :)
It's a 5 door
 
speaking from experience i broke my Frontera for parts after the fuel pump let go and i made more than the car was worth complete and mot'd by breaking it. It was heavy hard work but worth it as i couldnt have afforded to replace the car had i not split it for parts. I took everything i could off the car including doors etc (quick tip take all window regulators and central locking actuators out and sell them separate from the door you'll make more money) then with the help of a few friends weighed the shell in for another £100!
Depends how much time/space you've got i suppose.
Cheers Griff
