Thread: Show us your Disco

I wanted a Disco since 1995 when a mate's parents bought a Tdi and they let me drive it - such a lucky bugger. She was manual and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

So 12 years later, I finally got mine, purchased first week of Feb '07:

Built Nov '00, first registered in April I think 2001. Td5, 5 seater, no ACE or SLS. Currently has 189K kms on the clock. I'm the 3rd owner but the 2nd owner bought it from Lance Dixon LR for their round Australia Trip but had a massive heart attack and died only 2 months after purchase. She sat in the garge for 12 months till I bought her.





Since purchase I've taken off the factory steps and sold for a pretty penny on ebay, fitted an ARB Winch Bullbar, GME TX3400 UHF and Motorola GM950Plus VHF Radios, installed an old aftermarket Pioneer stereo with 12 stacker, 12" sub and amp. I've also made up a rear work/camp light which is telescopic; will post pics when I have one.

As she is at the moment (less the mud usually )

Here is my rear work/reverse light. Nothing flash, just a home made effort.

Well I thought I better show mine


Sorry there is no off roading pic's yet as I have not been able to take it

Adam, you have a nice rig there, from were you got the snorkel ?
I was about to order one from overseas because I do not like the plastic ones available here.
Cheers

Mine is a 200tdi so it has a air box like the V8's not like the 300 take a look at the pics below




Its made from 316 3" stainless tube and using 3" intercooler pipe from ebay and I got the snorkal top from a tractor supplyer from Victoria all up it costs arount $150 and took about 2 hours to do


Adam
