Guys I'm going to view a 1991 90 tomorrow. It's an ex raf truck that supposedly has a from factory 300tdi in it. Is this possible? I know the military didn't use 200tdi due to ladder frame but I didn't think the 300 went into production until 1994?. Is it possible to have a 300? If not what...

Hey guys, Any recommendations for a 1995 disco. My 1989 110 is with Adrian flux. Insured for £5000 at £14 a month for 3000 miles. To exchange to disco with a value of £800 they want £32 a month? Makes no sense. Footman won't insure as classic on disco? Normal insurers are stupid prices. Any others
