Hi Colin, The tyres are 'Cooper Discoverer STT Radials' They have done about 20 miles! and are in new condition. They've been sitting in a shed for the last 6 months waiting for me to come along and waste my money on them! I paid £250 for the set and you can have them for that, unless you've...

Help! I've just bought a set of 4 lovely steels with great off road tyres for my Disco 200. They're LT255/85 R16 and they're TOO BIG! Can't believe I've been such a Tw*t. Does anyone know if there's a way of fitting these without chopping my arches to bits? Or do I just have to bite the bullit...

Hi Everyone, I'd like to make some more room at the front of my Disco. I've seen lots of 200's at 'Devils Pit' with steering guards and what looks like the lower half of the front bumper removed..... Not only does this look very cool it also looks very practical! But is it as straightforward...

lovely, thanks mate

My Disco 1 leaks from somewhere around the Alpine window when it rains! I think it may be comming in through the slightly rusty guttering on the roof but before i start taking it to bits i wondered if anyone has had the same problem? If its the gutter i'll run some 'mastic' or 'seam sealer'...

I ran my Peugot 406 on it for the best part of a year and it was fine. Its dead easy to do and makes no diference to performance. It will smell a little bit but it depends on what oil you use. I only used new vegitable or sunflower oil and you could smell it slightly upon start-up. I would'nt...

thanks accky, just got to look out for a 300 front end now......

Hi All.... I've got a TDi 200 Disco, she's in lovely condition and i was thinking about changing the front grille and headlamps to the TDi300 type. Has anyone atemped this or do you know if its possible? It looks to me to be a straight swap..... Thanks Giles

Hi everyone.... well my series iii is almost there. new suspesion all round, body replaced or welded up, new paint job and wiring! Here's the thing! I've replaced 3 of the wheel cylinders, all the shoes and a couple of lenths of copper pipe (no visible problems with the master so left it...

Thanks Accy

Hi Again, Just want to get all your opinions on the best parts dealer to use. I've been using Paddock and found then reasonably priced and so far have had all i need. They're a bit far away though if i need something in a hurry. Can anyone recomend someone a bit closer to Bedford?

Thanks guys, I'm taken aback with your warm welcome. I like the idea of posting photo's and a narative of our up and coming expedition, I'll get working on it! Giles

Thanks for the swift answer Accy! I'll try that way first

Hi All, need to change the pads on an S3 swb (1983) never done one before, has anyone got any hot tips?

Hi All, before i start to strip it down I'm hoping someone out there has come across this before! Rear nearside wheel has oil leaking from the centre (makes a nice pattern!) I'm guessing that the breather has blocked and popped the seal at the hub.... any ideas? Its a 1983 SWB diesel...

Hi All, Just bought a 1984 SWB diesel off ebay..... She has lots of holes and bits falling off but the engine is sweet (even thought she smokes heavily on aceleration!) 3 of us are planning on a trip down to spain and back in August. Will be spending most of our time in the Pyrinees so the...
