--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just been and picked up a 3 door disco tonight my little bro is going to get into landies at last any way motor is sound runs great and we are going to turn it into a off road beast but originally we thought it was a 200tdi but now we are not sure and think it could be a 300! How can you tell?? i know on the defender you can tell by the side the air intake is on but that is not the case on the disco! so how can we tell??
Regards James

The 300 has bigger frot headlamps and better interior. Usually a 300tdi has a plastic cover on the engine. I think 200tdi is up to L reg and 300 is late L onwards to T reg.

Yellow dip stick top on a 300tdi
Green dip stick top on a 200tdi

Did post on 1st, check in the engine the 300 has a yellow dipstick the 200 is green. The air filters are different, barrel shaped on the 200 and square on the 300.
Hope that helps
