Hope it works out well for you.
What's the difference between the new style and old style dash.
I have not much ideas about Discos - anyomne know where any pics to illustrate the dash difference ?

Also major difference between series 1 and series 2 discos - and what years were involved.

Clue me up, Scotty :!: [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

https://www.roverparts.com/How_to_Identify_Rover.htm

for some clue on models

as for the dash the early disco's (upto 1994) had a more open layout

quote from www.landyonline.co.za :

The Discovery first became available in 1990, and quickly grew to become the most popular Land Rover to be seen on roads in South Africa. Based on the chassis of the Range Rover, the Discovery combined exceptional off road ability with road comfort. Since its introduction, the vehicle had three main eras: '90-'94 V8 3.5l, or 200Tdi engines and LT77 and LT77S 5 speed manual and ZF auto on V8; '95-'98 V8 3.9l or 300Tdi engines and R380 5 speed manual or ZF auto gearboxes; '99-on Discovery SII completely revised vehicle with new engines, improved gearboxes and many other electronic traction control, handling and safety features. Secondhand Discovery's are a good buy especially ones that have seen little off road work. The V8 models are more plentiful and cheaper than their diesel counterparts, later Diesels, after 1996 are better with increased power output.

Good answer, thanks Dave.

Which is the nicer dash and which is the "best" disco- the early ones or the series 2 ?

Useful after a hard day's performing at the Forum and your feet are hot.

So you take off your long shoes, the grease paint, red nose and orange wig.
