It was at the time when most beers were keg carp, and thanks to the much maligned CAMRA, the British beer brewing industry was saved, just in time, and you can now get decent beer all over the country. I was living in Bath at the time and you had to go far and wide to find decent stuff. Watneys red barrel etc was the rubbish of the day.
 
Hey OP, looks really nice and clean! Did you really want the third row of seats? I have those in 2 discos but much prefer the side bins, they are so useful for tools and spares (oh blast, just gave it all away!)
Like the idea of the rack, but do know quite a few other people whose racks have cost lots, those implants are not cheap!

Lol, thks, u know I haven’t got a clue of what the BHP or NM is on mine

The discovery do they also call them series 1-2-3 , reason I ask is I thought I saw something like that on the back of a D2 but not 100%

Plus decided my next project is to remove the bonnet letters , already done the tailgate

How’s ur list going by the way , service first or other plans

Cheers and thks for putting up with me asking questions , good u have the ACE

Great the links will hopefully be of use, just thought there was a lot of technical data there and as always like to share the links so it helps others

Having the ACE does that also mean it has the CDL, read where some had it but some just didn’t have the lever fitted

All ur fault as I just had a look ref D3 data , lol

191 PS / 188 bhp / 140 kW @ 4000 rpm
440 Nm / 325 ft.lb / 44.9 kgm @ 1900 rpm

D3 Engine weighs 205 kg, Christ that’s nearly 1/4 ton, u know the engines are bloody heavy but to be honest never gave it a thought

Id handled well for a big 4x4 ;)

The throttle peddle travel is about a foot long so it feels sluggish until you realise the pedal takes a good prod to get going ;)
