    well thanks everyone, but we test drove a tdi disco today and surprisingly it was slow and sluggish,that was a 300tdi. But we test drove a 200 tdi Range Rover as well, and boy did that have some poke. We are now looking for a Range Rover tdi. Good turning circle me dad says as well.

    woo got it running now not perfect but still it lives once again. Had a look at the wire that goes from ignition to coil, pulled it of and straightened it out and tried it. Wen we tried to start it it turned over the fastest it has ever done and it started. Cheers for the help lads!!:D
