well its coming up to the time of year everyone dreads MOT time for my 300tdi auto 98 disco, thing is its going to need quite a lot of work this year i think to get it through.
I dont use it all the time now as we bought a small fiesta to run around in and save fuel when costs were high and we are still using that every day at the minute
So here,s the question, do i spend loads on getting it through the mot to bring it back to life or while i,m at it and i have another car to run about in do i spend some money on mods such as engine performance suspension and cosmetic looks and upgrades?
having sold off the fleet :lol: of my other discos i,m sort of hankering after something to go laning and playing in again, its either that or i go out and look at something newer like a td5 seeing as they seem to be worth pence round here at the minute, even the apprentice at work has bought one :roll:
its going to need
A good service of everything is due anyway
front right swivel ball is corroded and starting to leak
brakes looking at odd abs fault
engine has developed several annoying leaks on the filter housing and the front timing case
windsceen is leaking somewhere but i can pin down where yet
complete exhaust front to back it is the original so its done well its more like a sieve now
and i have the usual niggly faults like some switches dont work, heated seats dont work, cruise control dont work etc etc
to fix everything to standard or to mod while i,m at it?
what to do
