looking at buying a 1996 disco that has no fold down seats in the boot, are
these an optional extra?. is it easy to fit them? how much would it cost
roughly?

We have a 2001 Disco and were able to get a couple of extra seats from our
local LR service agent for a few hundred dollars. We were lucky enough to
ask at the same time as someone wanted to get rid of theirs. LR fitted the
seats for us but they're removable. Since we don't need them often, we
currently have them out - easy enough to do, except that they're quite heavy
to lug them around - our storage area is on the 3rd floor of our Sydney
terrace house!

They're certainly not difficult to fit, although some of the bolts are
in awkward places. From memory they're about £90 each new but you do
occasionally see them on eBay for a lot less. If you buy second hand
make sure you get all of the washers and spacers as well or it'll be
difficult to get a good solid installation.

different seats in the 2001 - the '96 will have the sideways-facing
fold-ups.

they're not that difficult to fit, dunno if the 5-doors have the fittings
behind the panel for the seatbelts, though.

breakers would be my guess for the best bet to get 'em.

meant to say - the 200 and 300 discos appear to have identical fold-up
seats.
