As the title says, I am breaking a Range Rover. The car has been stood for 18 months, and has 99,000 miles on the dash. All items available with the exception of: Engine and loom Flywheel c/w torque converter - although this may be available if it isn't the one griffman wants Open to...

Hi, Can anyone on here help me out and collect a P38 from near Huddersfield, and deliver down to me? My transport plan has been torpedoed. Obviously there would be an exchange of money for said services if someone can help. Thanks, Jon

Apologies for posting here, but I can't post in the wanted section and thought this might get a bigger audience. I'm looking for a good GEMS 4.6 V8 to replace my knackered engine. I know there a few on eBay, but am sceptical about the quality of some of them. Would rather buy from someone...

Ok, so I've accepted that the block is knackered, although no liner slip is evident, water is getting in somewhere, after renewing head gaskets and getting heads checked. This week I shall get the engine out, strip it down and get it relinered. Is there anything to look out for when removing...

I finally picked up my eBay bought disco1 V8 on Thursday evening after winning it just before going on holiday, and will be spending time looking around it this weekend. It drives ok, although it seems like there might be a bit of slack in the drive/prop shafts somewhere so all the UJs will...

Right, I have finally managed to get a Disco V8 at a price I wanted to pay, with nearly a years MOT(no advisories) and 6 months tax. Won't be seeing it for a week or so as I'm away in Spain, but I do know that the LPG system doesn't switch over, so it is currently working on petrol only. What...

I am looking at changing my van for a Discovery but am having a hard time deciding which one to get, engine wise. I'm leaning towards a 99 or 2000 model as I prefer the forward facing seats and 3 point belts all round. I have 4 kids so it's quite important to me. My major dilemma is...
