    I reckon the best thing you could do to a Disco is attack it with a gas axe :P

    Going back to the vehicle.

    I think that it is clever....but ugly and inappropriate.

    It looks like what it is: a chopped up Disco and that is it.

    The 130 Defender lends itself to this modification because a Defender has utilitarian "beauty". Robust and not precious.

    The Disco was conceived as a "microsoft" self contained vehicle where as the Series and Defenders are "open ended" and "free ware" (like Linux).

    You can frig about with a Disco but you need to have the code to do it.

    IMHO the person who did this didn't have the code. (A designer's opinion).

    I'll pass on the Gas Axe until I've worked out where to apply it. 8)
