Got one! 1999 Discovery Td5 auto, completely original, it managed the run from the midlands down to central France averaging 32ish mpg or just under 9l / 100km if your brain works that way!

Yep, radio code too. Now to sort a few little glitches, drivers door solenoid, rear passenger door solenoid and I think washer motor or valve gunged up as motors run. It's all coming back to me now :D:D
