Who is Martyn?

Does he have a spare front wheel arch for a 300tdi disco so when I fit my snorkel I can keep the original wing in 1 piece just incase I ever sell the disco I can keep the snorkel.

If it comes in green even better still

A 200 whell arch would fit as well wouldnt it? a 300 is just a slightly modified engine and a few tweeks to the interior / exterior trim. Nothing changed re the wheel arches or am I wrong? I am kinda new to disco's
