Hi everyone, just got me a 95 disco 1, have worked on them in the past but never owned one, its an old ambition I have managed to justify,I do enjoy driving it,nice and chunky, first impression is it feels wider than it actually is, it feels wider than my old CF camper van,though I know it isn't.
My first intentions are to check the beast out thoroughly,first checks were satisfactory for the age of the disco,its going to need a rear load space floor section,1 rear axle bump stop, a couple of front arch plates welding in but nothing major, its got the 300dti engine with auto g,box, its had the EGR blanked off, a different injector pump fitted doing away with the need for MAF unit, theres not a drop of smoke from it,even when starting,WOW,it seems to have had the cruize control disconnected at the diaphragm,must check that out.
I am in the process of finding out where to get bits at the right price,so far I got a filter kit from Britpart,dead -cheap, need to find load space panel at decent price now. Looking forward to boring you all to death in the near future. Best wishes from Chesterfield.
