Thread: What did you do with or to your Disco today

Who knew that you could get so attached to a car? As I explained to someone today, not only was it a daily driver, I have also lived out of it for weeks at a time going all over Australia. At those times, it's not just a car, it's your home away from home. Hopefully the new owner gets as much enjoyment out of it as I did, and has as many fun times in it. I'm still keeping the D3, but boy am I going to miss the rugged simplicity and the enjoyment in just driving that car, and modifying it too. So Bon Voyage and safe travels to my well loved little blue box on wheels!

I'm sure It's new owner will indeed look after it and have many adventures. Thanks again mate for being so awesome about it all. Can't wait to get my hands on the old girl and take the kids for a spin in the bush. She will be looked after well and taken care of. It will be great to be back in a Landy again after the last few years away. Particularly one that has been well looked after. Cheers.

After bit of heavy rain last few days the young bloke who’s been driving the disco complained about water dropping on his leg found when the windscreen was replaced they did not use enough sealant around the top of windscreen ran hose over all fixed

These two files may help - linked in the 'FILES' section at the top of the page. They are D1 water ingress manuals; see file number 10 on page 1 and file number 20 on page 2.

After snapping off at some point in the last month, I got my rear sway bar bracket stuck back on. Think I'll leave the actual bar off though, can't tell any difference in handling whatsoever...

Also treated ourselves to a Darche 270 Awning, bloody brilliant bit of kit! Can't recommend highly enough.
