    Holy crap man. Thats some serious cancer on the floor pan!
    Is it worth even keeping it? Cost of repairs i mean versus replacing the car.

    Cost me about $1000 to complete the rust repairs so I'm a happy chappie.

    I was looking at purchasing a new car but I still love the old girl so I'm looking at spending $5+G's on her in the next few weeks. Mechanically she's fine.
    I may get another 18 Yrs out of her

    Today I gave it a good fish oil,
    installed a new steering damper,
    a new drive shaft donut,
    and a new A frame ball joint which I found in the pile of spares from the old Range Rover days.

    Picked up a UHF cb from Repco and threw that in my disco.
    Been using a hand held prior to that
    Repco Catalogues

    Seemed like a good deal. Complete setup. Everything included for under $200.

    Put the trailer on and went to collect a fridge. Engine temp hits the red zone on the return journey with the fridge on. I towed another Disco on a trailer a few weeks back in high 30s and never had an issue.

    The last time I towed a fridge it did the same thing. Bizarre.

    Oddly enough I'm in the process of buying another brand 4x4 at the moment and I'm thinking it might be a sign from God
