Engine removal/Vehicle overhaul

(1/2) > >>

sulley:
For some reason I had a mad idea to take the engine out of the Disco and have it overhauled, at the same time have the vehicle treated to a new coat of paint.

Been thinking of doing this for a while.  The plan is to maybe (not definately) do this during next spring/summer.  Would take the vehicle off the road during this time.

Just wondering how much it would cost me to have the engine removed overhauled and reinstalled (I am about as technical as a toffee apple) and to have a new paint job done.  Thinking of a pearlescent black.

Would also be replacing the headlights etc.  Might also get it waxoyled or similar at the same time.

Cheers

LROI have the second part of an article on 200tdi engine removal etc in this months which dropped through the door this morning.

sulley:
Yeah I got that this morning and they are to blame for kicking off this idea again!!!!   :P  :roll:

But they never give any indication of price for this sort of thing!

Wanderer:
If you're not in a hurry you can do a lot of it youself. It's when you start to need engineering skills that you may not have.

We might be doing similar on Bev's V8 soon.

They haven't said, but I'm sure you caould give them a call and they would love to talk about it until they have put you too sleep. There should be a phone number in there somewhere, they are based at Emap Towers PEterborough (should be a 01733).

Or whasn't it frog Island they were using for the majority of the work.... try them.
