Pic of me new toy!
« on: April 17, 2009, 17:54:11 »
Picked up this disco for £500!

Its got 2" spring lift, 2" spring spacers, upgraded intercooler, k&n filter, diff guards front and rear, dog guard and rear ladder!

Taxed til end of June and mot'd til end of May, but all the welding has been done, aside from some easy to get to stuff on the chassis, i.e. boot floor, inner wings, sills etc............

Only downside is that it has no carpets or trim, but i have sourced this for free from someone in Liverpool who is breaking another XS!!

So thought i would share this with you as i spent the afternoon swapping the lightbar, tubular bumper and steering guard.

Looking good Dan,

Obviously those bolts came off easy then...???? can't remember if I tightened them all up now....lmao
Any way I'm glad you got it all done - wish I could say the same for mine but that's a story for a separate thread...lol

Eventually a winch and winch bumper, safari snorkel and i want to maybe put 3" lift springs one it to give it a little bit more height!

But all of that is going to wait, as i need to sell the range rover and buy another 300tdi for swmbo as we bought this one for her, and i kinda railroaded her into letting me have it cos of the lift and stuff!

TBH though she was struggling to climb in it, shes not the tallest lass in the world!

So gonna get her a 300tdi and then stick a standard 2" lift on it, then she can use it for her work on a day to day basis and still have enough height for some good off roading!
