f***ing made up, cant wait to see who the little rat is

My discovery is insured with Adrian Flux, but im 21 and as you say they wont insure anyone under 19, but I remember looking around for insurance for defenders/discos around your age but I just had to grit my teeth and wait a few years =/ I know its a bastard when you have it there in the garage...

To be honest the engine size has nothing to do with Insurance costs at your age. For instance my discovery 2.5 is way cheaper to insure than a 1.8 freelander. But for the sake of answering your question you can get a series one with a 1.6 :D Your probably best starting with a series 3 though...

if you set your mileage low around 3000 and go third party fire and theft then Adrian Flux are good. however you still have atleast 3 years to wait before you can even insure a car of any kind and by that time insurance will be much higher than it is now, considering its gone up on average by...

I dont run veg no, but as said in a previous post it doesn't seem to be blowing any more thanks

Just out of interest what's your oil level? could be the beginning of a runaway?

Id say go for it, the auto TD5 can be chipped for more power and economy making it very reasonable for such a heavy powerfull beast. Post 2001 which is what I presume you want with them being facelifted then you are going for the higher VED tax band. Thats band M which had the car been...

ha I wont tell you how I came to that number :O maths was never my strong point :doh:

ouch I get 100miles from £20 in my 300tdi has it had a good service? plugs filters and ht leads checked

Yep last time I used it it was 1.20 per litre but that was about 6 months ago Theres sometimes some svo on ebay but you have to go pick the stuff up and it could be anywere. 1000litres for £800 thats £1.25 a litre? SVO NEW COOKING OIL VEG DIESEL BIO RAPESEED 1000 LITRES | eBay

starting to worry me this, seems more and more discos are being stolen. part of the reason I chose a disco over a defender was the theft problem.

Never driven an auto, mines a manual 300tdi, unstoppable offroad and very torquey onroad. People say autos are slow, but lets be honest even the manuals are snails off the mark. I suppose it depends on your driving style, an auto would be more relaxed and sometimes I wish I went for one, but I...

Im in the knowsley area of merseyside, will keep my eyes open for it round these ways. But first as previously said get some pics up

Strange thing is I checked it last night and there was hardly any blow by at all, weird. The tappets were done by the book and infact its quieter and alittle smoother now. thanks

Bit of confusion sorry lol it is regarding my 300tdi Disco On another note my 2a diesel blows like a steam train lol

After doing the valve clearances yesterday, I started her up to make sure all was well and noticed there was quite alot of gas puffing from the filler cap opening. Now it loses a little bit of oil every few hundred miles but this is down to the various small leaks it has, it pulls really...

Just out of interest I had a synergy fitted to my astra CDTI for a year and then on my focus TDCI and both ran much better and faultlessly. Well recommended

I noticed the exact same wire under my drivers seat yesterday!

190,000 original engine and box, still pulls like a train

Exactly, I suppose that's one thing you must do is always try is buy from a trusted seller, but even then you can still get caught out.
