muddyjames:
It does state in the listing the gearbox was a bit notchy before he stopped using it.
£1500 for insurance. Pah thats cheap. My first years insurance was £2200 tpft and that was reduced with doing my pass pluss by £600!!! He has a bargain at £1500 then :wink: :lol:
It is painful though to know m reg discos are only getting £1100 resale. I paid £4200 18months ago for my m reg disco :cry:
Disco-andy:
If as the guy says it fells a little notchy then it may well be that it is the gear box oil needs changing. Old thick oil get in the teath and dose not alow a smoth change.
I dont know how old you son is but i was insured with flux when i was 19 on a 200tdi disco for around £550 when i was being quoted £1000+ every were elce. it dose meen a max of 5000mile a year though.
He got him self a bargin mind I just paid £1900 for a m reg 300. A few less miles and a 5 door, but still it show the dirence in car prices in the north.
beatmasterdave:
ive just turned 19, been insured since i got the disco in july under norwich union van insurance. my disco is a 2 seater comercial 300tdi s reg. number of seats makes a huge difference. under dad's name its about £600! bargain. goodluck!!!!
cardiff_gareth:
That was a bargin, a bloomin big bargin.
When I had my first Disco I paid £5200, that ws 2 years ago and on a P with 162k miles :x
The one I have now I PX'd a diesel R reg Scenic and £500 so I feel better now although the list of things fixed and needing fixing gets longer.
How is finding the gears, it could be the selector plate about to go :?:
paul and sam:
well the son has been and gone off down to cornwall it doent look too baad except you cant get it into diff lock at the mo i think this maybe due to it never being used. the problem with the gearbox seems to be with the first and sometimes the second gears still not sure about this.could it be due to low oil in the box? wrong oil? i have been told that some of the 300s have a diffrent box and the oil is diffrent any thoughts on the matter ? it seems that this maybe the only problem (fingers crossed :(bloodshot): )
