Discopols shopping list for his UK visitation (Diff is the important one)

'Ow do.



I need rear diff for a 300tdi disco 24 spline three bolt flange, in reasonable nick close to Manchester/Bradford.

Im not in the UK until around the 21st of December and leaving again around the 29/30th but willing to travel around 50 miles from either location to collect.

whilst Im at it some rear light clusters wouldnt go amiss and the handbrake lever too, maybe a electric window panel aswell, not the switches just the plastic panel that they sit in.

ive got a 200tdi rear axel if thats any good? dunno if diffs are the same? in midlands. 40 quid

Hmm, i might still have the rear lights from my disco... if i do you're welcome to them - what route are you taking through the UK? I'm on the M1 next to Northampton

I've got a 3 bolt flange diff from a disco 3,9 efi if its any good ?

and i also have a handbrake lever from the same motor ….

I have everything on your list apart from the diff. I could post to a friend or relatives address so you can collect there when you are here?

Hi Bump, Im coming in via Hull to reduce the driving time as much as possible, personally i have no issue with 22 hours but the wife and son prefer the 14 hours via Hull - Rotterdam

Hi Discopol,

I managed to get a central locking solenoid so no need to bring one over for me. Thanks for the offer and have a safe trip. Where in Poland are you travelling from.

Hi bud, glad you got sorted.

I live about 20 miles from the center of Warsaw, so its a fairly easy run over straight out through Germany then Holland and into Belgium then the ferry over to Hull and finally landing in Manchester with the 'rents. all told about 28-30 hours including ferry crossings, going that way its only a 1500km(940miles) ish run so not too bad at all.

Sounds like a good trip. I did Stoke to Swiecko/Slubice (just over the border) via Dover on a Kawasaki ZZ-R 1100. Threw in Amsterdam, Hannover, Berlin and Copenhagen to make a great bike run. Had a really sore arse by the time I got back to stoke though.

Really sore arse????? It's true what they say about bikers then.
The run over is a regular thing with me,I do it 2 or 3 times a year, that's the problem with marrying a pole but it's compensated many times over by marrying a pole. :lol:

She is simply representative of the dizzying array of high quality scrat there is in this country.

Is this the electric window panel?

You can have it....

It was just what all my switches came in for my defender when I ripped them out of one of the discos down the farm. PM me one of the addresses and I'll stick it in the post 2nd class. It'll be there in time to collect then. Should only cost about £2 postage with a used jiffy bag.
