Think I have to go see it tomorrow at least.. I'll try to convince myself it's too much work.

It is solid. And slow, cold, heavy, but also brilliant. I even have a 200tdi (complete rolling chassis) waiting to go in it, but there's something about the p38. I think I'm talking myself into both.. Surely the wife won't mind?!

Question... My old p38, which I did love a little, but which had a knacked engine is up for sale again. Not only has it been fitted with a new engine, but it's the same price as I sold it for!! Just needs ancilliaries hooked back up and mot'd. I do have a perfectly good 110 which I'd...

Hi, I'm considering putting a disco 200tdi engine and gearbox into my 110. While its accessible, what should I be doing to the disco engine prior to throwing it in the 110? The 200 has covered about 100k and ran fine before being laid up. Cheers...

Cheers I'll check the tyres they could be down a bit, but either way the thought of power steering is nice!

Evening, I'm considering purchasing a rolling chassis disco donor, complete with engine gearbox and ancilliaries for my 110. I've read up on the posts about the conversion, fascinating stuff, a couple of questions though... How do I find out what gear box is attached to the discos engine? Do...

Hmm... keep clean... not sure I understand!

Many thanks... I go investigating..

The front prop shaft fell off today, fortunately at very low speed on very quiet road. Will do the knackered old beast any harm if i just disconnect and drive with rear wheel drive?

I'm swaying towards it. it was actually £1.5k, I'm just good on the phone! With a full MOT what can possibly go wrong!

frankly the least of my worries when the thing still heads for the red on any given incline. although some relief - i thought that was a dash out job.

did i mention the small pool of coolant on the drivers mat today? just not about to get that sorted - it has to go...

Cheers for the sums... given ive only had the diesel for a few months, and have so far bought new radiator, thermostat, mid exhaust and various other bits and bobs, and given its F*&*"!* annoying overheating / breaking down every time i do want to go further afield, surley (SURELY?!) a...

So I'm considering giving up my annoying, over-heating Test expired 2.5 DT for a tasty HSE the same age. I can get a grand for mine the way it is, and the unlucky chap selling the HSE only wants a grand for his. Its petrol though not LPG. So is it crazy to go petrol? Diesel is so expensive am i...
