I would like to suggest that NO Disco has ever rolled ITSELF over, this action requires consierable input from the NUT behind the wheel, Regards Frank.

Im realy suprised that a lot of people have sugested getting a diesel motor from a rolled car

For starters a diesel will run at any angle , if you were to get a motor from a rolled car that the engine had not been shut off straight away and left to run for a while , just think of the damage that could have been done to the crank mains , bigends , rods , cam ect All due to no oil or lack of
