    Is there a decent one about in tas at the moment. I haven't dreamt (Err I mean looked) for a while.

    Rust in the alpine windows is one particular one to watch for, as well as rust in the boot area under the carpet from leaking wondows, otherwise mostly the usual stuff. If you want more detail i've got a great LROI article on buying a Disco that I coulod scan for you, it's quite good, even deals with the test drive.

    G'day Defender=1st

    If it runs hot it already has a problem have a look in the "Hells Bells" postings, and at the post with link that Deejay put up and you will see some disco prices that are better than in Tas, would even possibly get an AULRO member to look one over for you Then there is the 96 300 TDI Auto that Inc. has for sale will Full History nice unit, headlight upgrade,pump tweek, Phoenix has the info on that one


    cheers
