Thread: Cargo space

My question is. If I fold the rear seats down, how long is the cargo space in the Discovery 1. Its a 97 (Vin code suggests 98) 300tdi and a beautiful blue.
It seems the handbrake has bought a deep freeze and it's a pick up in Brisbane and I am really hoping not to take the trailer down so the Landy's first job will be to bring the darn thing 1000km home.


The deep freeze is 1.37m in its longest dimension
Will it fit?

Martyn I have difficulties to measuring correctly because the cargo barrier and the rear storage unit fitted in my 1998 Disco, but I can telling you that if you are lucky is going to be a very close fit

If I was you, I take the trailer for your pace of mind.
Cheers

er' i just measured my d1 and it won't fit.
however it will fit if you unbolt the rear seats.
as the rear seats are different widths, you might get away with just popping one out.

My new Discovery is the twin of yours.
Thank you for the tip.
I might just put the trailer on for "peace of mind".
Its just the hassle of 2000km with a trailer on.

Thanks Harry
I think I'll take the trailer just in case.
At least the Disco wont have any problems pulling it.
