Disco 3 - I better win Lotto soon..

[Bytemrk]

Hi all,

For those that have not read enough about the LR3 or series 3 Disco. I found this:

http://www.mvw.net/lr3/index.php

While all the electronics are still to prove them selves in the aussie bush.... there are not too many bad things being written about them OS and they seem full of some pretty cool toys!

Think in I had a toy like that on the dash.... I would run into a lont more inanimate objects while not watching the road. 8O

DiscoTDI - "isn't" and a :?: , please.

Bytemrk - a comma after Ron and a :?: at the end of your question, please.

When I saw Bytemrk's correction of his initial post, I burst out laughing. I thought the same as DiscoTDI.

But "Think in I had a toy like that on the dash.... I would run into a lont more inanimate objects while not watching the road. " needed more.

"Think in....." ??

Also, had I written the above, I would have put "whilst" rather than "while". However, some say that whilst is too formal, others write:

"In American English whilst is not normally used."

"In British English while and whilst are more or less interchangeable when the meaning is although or whereas."

Clearly, the meaning in the sentence is not although or whereas so whilst would apply. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif

8) gorsh, i recon e ment ta sa 'thinkin'
an watsit mata aneway ow ya spellin is.

and as for the lr3 what a good jigger it would be.

the onboard screen with what's happening is similar to the toyota prius.
i went for a drive in one and the screen shows how much power comes from which power source and all the other stuff in great graphics with moving displays - very techo indeed!

I reckon Ron could make a lot of money if he went to Microsoft and offered the used of his brain for spelling and grammar checking. It would be one helluva lot better than the american crap they use now. Matt style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

I want to see how that screen will look in 5 years time after being baked daily in the sun and covered with a mm of dust!!

Me think it will not last too well....how big is that screen? What else will fit in the hole in the dash when LRA want $1500 to replace the screen!

[VladTepes]

Nah - wait for the new Defender - hopefully it'll have something more useful in the dash - like a cubby box or a drink holder. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

8) wouldn't it be nice to delete the cost of all the junk they put in and just order a basic car and spec it up as you wish.
you know - , no radio, bench seats, column shift, vinyl mats

s'pose they'd make that cost extra to order!

[harry]

8) gosh i miss bench seats [although buckets are more comfy]
like bloody utes are useless with bucket seats and centre console

Lets hope the cup holders graduate to 600mL bottle size. The damn cup holders in my disco are as useful as pedals on a wheel chair. They only fit cans in them, the fast food drink cups fit in, but they sit on a lean cause of the air con controls. Pain in the butt. Matt

Arent they stupid Disco, no one drinks from cans anymore, well not while travelling. I like the bottle cause you can put the lid on, making spilages a thing of the past, especially when off road. Matt

I still get cans of coke for $1 at work :wink:

Yeah, we sell them at the shop for a $1. We figure sell heaps at a dollar rather than sell less at $1.50 etc. We turn over heaps more stock that way. Matt

[DiscoTDI]

and they fit in your cup holders :wink:

I must have missed something in another thread. What shop :?:


And who is the poof complaining about their drink holders.... get a Defender and get a life. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

[noddy]

Drink holder = wife

Hmmm.... suppose that is why I am not married!

Seriously though, I find the best spot to hold a drink in a Defender is wedged between the passengers seat and the cubby box. The seat gives sufficient flex to hold the container. Does not matter what diameter drink you have or the weight/girth of the person in the passenger seat.

Seriously....ditch the Discos and get Defenders. Life runs at a different pace....circa 1948!

[VladTepes]

Cubby box :?: What cubby box :?:

Oh, you got one of them flash upmarket jobbies....


Cubby box :roll:


I even had to put my own radio in....

[noddy]

Vlad -- did you get the extra seat in the middle?

What is where the cubby box is meant to be?

Yep. An extra, entirely useless, seat. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

Maybe if Gidget reads this he'll give me the cubby box out of his b4 he sells it.
