congratulations, ive got a disco 200tdi and love it, its the best motor ive had, so far lol

[richo]

Its a nice feeling when you get a new motor.

[discowoman]

well I have had a 200 series V8 on carbs - 300 Tdi x 2 .. so this is my 1st 200tdi...so this makes the set of early disco's.. need a td5 now - lol

[discowoman]

well its here!!
previous owner had it for 18 days!!!!!!
Oh well his loss, apart from him its had 4 owners, so not too bad -failed last MOT on welding - which was done (looks like front inner wings - and possible patch on the rear floor, also had some power steering work and exhaust) so touch wood it should be a good 'un.
All door locks work perfectly...including the rear door, very quiet mechanically, but could possibly do with a service..
PROBLEMS
Horn and Hazards dont work (fuse??????????)
No Cubby box
reverse lights are worked off a switch...
Drivers seat is fubard - usual frame broken
and has LARGE spotlights fitted - the sort with sidelights and dip....but theyre Fekkin bright..even on dip beam - so they may be put onto a switch  or wired onto beam..


Will get some pics sorted in the light and get em posted..

Just so you know, it's only legal to have 1 set of sidelight apparently :-k and you can only use 1 pair of dipped beams as dipped beams.  I think you might find they are meant to be fog lights though and probably cost a lot of money.

think they are going to be taken off headlights - and just wired into beam..only driven it for about an hour in the dark - and theyre already peeing me off!!!!
Stupid idea really..
Think the items not working are all related to 1 fuse..as we have NO HAZARDS HORN or CLOCK..something to look at in the daylight, just arranged to get the dricers seat frame welded over the weekend (will keep my eyes open for a good 2nd hand one )
drives really well - and pulling power puts our old 300's to shame up hill in 3rd plant ya foot and hold on :O:O

Well been called a few names today, just taken hubby and friend 7 hours to remove - reapir and refit drivers seat.
Front 'swivel' mounting had seized - so previous owner had forced the seat forward which had torn all the fittings underneath, so had to re-weld and also make some infill pieces, free the base off and refit all the seat springs..result is a seat that now tips as it should and also keeps ya ass off the floor

Also found a lot of rot in the outer sills  :'( but the mate that helped with seat (well ok he did the work hubby watched/helped) has offered to hel[p with welding..just need to get it over the pit and see what else needs doing!

[Range Rover Blues]

If the sills a re going expect the body mounts to be shot and the rear crosmember/chassis mounts too.
