Got one at last now a 300tdi landy owner

Hi everyone been on the site ,abit gathering much needed info

Has mentioned i`ve finally bought a landy dicso 300 tdi and i`m new to landys but my girlfriends uncle is a landy nut who gave us a huge list of paper with what to look for advice.

Took ages to find a good one, seemed to be finding alot with more rust than bodywork but patience worked out.

Thankfully got one owned by an older gentleman in his 60`s.
An R-plate 97 in blue thankfully no sunroofs 100k miles with some history too, 12 months mot 6 moths tax, new clutch.

Don`t know much about the engines yet but on the test drive the engine was cold when we got there, it took about 15mins in yesterdays warm weather for the temp gauge to move and it sat between 1/4 & 1/2 on the gauge on the test drive hardly moved when sat in traffic.

Only niggle which he did mention when i called him the drivers window is`nt working i`ll investgate.

Whoops forgot i`ll post pics when i collect it tomorrow and cleaned it too.

:welcome2:to the world of Disco ownership

cheers for the welcome.

I would`ve posted pics but the numpty insurance people:doh: have mucked up on transfer date so tomorrow I pick it up.

by the time I`ve finished work and collected my new money pot has a close mate of mine who`s a mechanic has told me so unfortunately it`ll be
