The door , back and front wing panels and roof
Bonnet and back door are steel (i think)

My 97 was all aluminium, except the chassis and possibly some hinges. Know this as there was someidiot who did some scratches on mine down to the ally.

I'm pretty sure the roof is the only steel panel in the Disco. They can rust around the alpine lights if the seals are stuffed.

the roofs arent alloy as they rust around the alpines

the floors arent alloy as they rust

the door frames arent alloy as they rust

it really is only the outer skin panels that are left that are alloy

eg bonnet, door skins, sides of the vehicles

same as a good old series in many respects style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif

All outer panels (just the skins) are aluminuium except for the roof. All inner panels are supposed to be galvanised steel.
