this started off with oil collecting on the front tie bar (think thats what it's called) this was really bugging me so i steam cleaned the gearbox, block, head ect. so i could eliminate the worse things, but looked like my quick rocker cover gasket replacement, was the culprit. I did the...

I was wondering if the ground plain was any good on a roofbar, might rethink that one maybe

Thanks for the reply trax, i remember when i owned my (don't laugh) 2CV i had to do loads of welding to the floor, i then cleaned well, and put some of that Hammerite underbody seal on, after a year of driving it in all weathers it seemed quite solid, but it wasn't a Land rover, not sure if it...

I have a CB that i want to fit to my Disco 1, i was wondering where you chaps who have them, run the antenna coax, i don't really want to drill any holes to run it, as i don't want another excuse for something to rust. it needs to go from the front dash or overhead map pocket, to the rear of...

since sealing the sunroof frame, drip tray, screws, nothing more has leaked...so far. The front floors are quite dry now too, even though we have had a week almost of rain :) i just want to get rid of all the top rust, remedy it, then seal it all, hopefully it will hold it off for a bit...

Bit of an update, i contacted the seller, via ebay, he said "sorry i didn't know" but it's still worth a try asking him to cough up a little towards repairs, i'll try the softly softly approach first. Consumer direct say i am within my rights to do this, but if he's not forthcoming with any...

The sidesteps came for my Disco today, while i was fitting them i noticed that the sill seam (bottom) was starting to rust, so far it has just swelled the seam, nothing too bad yet. What would be the best way to hold this off, or nip it in the bud, i was thinking of getting rid of the loose...

I was thinking of that it might help with repairs :)

Thanks, didn't mean to sound off, but i'm feeling a bit sore about it today...it was the most i have ever spent on a car :) I have read however the "buying a crock of ****" sticky, and it was interesting I can weld, and used to have a welder, as i used to own a 2CV at one time, but got...

The seller was a dealer, to be honest i read the forums for sometime before going to buy one, i didn't obviosly want to be caught out like i have done, i also test drove it. Like i said all i could do was check for damp/wet on the floor, i think he would of been a bit annoyed if i had started...

I just bought a 98 Discovery 1, from a classified ad from demon bay, i put a deposit on it with paypal of £200 as the guy said when i called that he had quite a few calls and i didn't want to lose it pm me and i'll send the link. I will put the text from the description below: When i went...

Hi all I have just recently purchased my first ever Landrover, a '98 Disco 1, and thought i would join a couple of forums, I have modified/repaired a few things on the car today with parts that i have been collecting for the last week. I love the car, and believe i've been bitten by the bug...
