    Rear View Mirror

    There's definitely spare wires up in the headlining. When I fixed my leaking sunroof i had the liner down. I'd assumed they were for the electric sunroof and compass mirror etc (neither fitted to my Disco). If you check it might even have the right plug on the end for your mirror Hold off on...

    Newbie questions

    I run a 2000 4.0 v8 GS AUTO and love it. In my opinion the purchase price you quote is too high, I paid less than £4k for mine less than 6 months ago with 64k on the clock and it's in good condition. As for LPG, do your maths first and work out based on your mileage how long the payback will...

    Automatic

    Towing with Auto is less hassle, but htat;s just my opinion. Towed my caravan with a Manual car until late last year when I got the Auto Disco. So much better, less faff when pulling away, whack the right pedal and off you go! Found it less bother when pitching up too, D, R, D, R until it was...

    Diesel Versus V8 quandry!

    To add my tuuppence worth I'd say don't rush into it and keep looking for the right car at a good price, taking into account all the other advice given, servicing etc. I bought a 2000 (registered 23/12/2000) V8 GS Auto several months back with 64k on the clock for under 4k from a small 4x4...
