Being born in Warwickshire in the UK it was no surprise that I would be a fan of all things British, especially British cars. So when I got the opportunity to buy my Disco off the first very careful owner (Dad) in late 2004 it was a lifelong ambition realised.
Details:
2000 TD5 Auto
White
150,500 km
Mods:
Factory snorkel
ARB Dual Battery kit and Bull bar
Old Man Emu Suspension
Uniden UHF radio
BFG A/T
Home made draw system
ARB Fridge
Bodgey arse spotties
Repairs:
Many
Future plans:
HID spotties (looking at XXX or Light force, any tips?)
CDL actuator for use from inside the car
Overall my Disco has caused me some pain through many repairs, some of which can probably be attributed to some of the repairers that I have taken it to. Having said that this has all been part of the experience of owning a Disco. The Disco has allowed my wife and I to go to places and do things that our other cars did not. I enjoy driving it even if it just down the road to Woolies.
I intend to hold on to it as long as I can and continue having the flexibility and extra capability that it allows.
crl
2001 td5 manual. 235km at the mo.
third owner i believe, purchased at 175km with full service history every 20km.
came with bullbar, dual batteries, cargo barrier, dpl chip.
i have added cdl, chunky tyres, suspension lift, spotlights, d2a intercooler and rear cargo draw/box thingo!
only major issue was clutch fork some time back, otherwise all regular maintenance stuff including new radiator at 210km.
only other plans are in cab cdl actuator, roofrack and maybe steering/diff guards down the track.
