ello shipmates.
I thought i'd better sign up here too and various other places.
Name is Dave, live in Grimsby, currently own a Frontera SWB and a Discovery MPi (yes there are a few kicking about).

Picked it up for £500, T&T until september. Surprisingly rust free apart from rear passenger door bottom inner.
But alas the head gasket blew today. I know, shock horror in an MPi, they are so reliable!

Anyway, does anyone have a guide on replacing the head gasket? The eventual plan is to TDi it or V8 it what with the body and chassis being so good. That'll not be happening for a while yet.

Bought the disco for the metal work, not the engine. :bounce:

As for the frontera it served a purpose.... and for £155 i wasn't going to complain.

I'd actually forgotten i was already a member here until i did some searching. So I'd better re-introduce myself, even though i'd set up another account in error..

I had a 2.0MPi disco but owing to health issues (mainly mine) I couldn't afford to keep it so it went, i went back to a Vauxuzu Frontroopermu..... but that's not lasted. Health restored, picked up an auto 300TDI silly money with dodgy swivel pins.

So here i be and here i stay. Green oval all the way!
