1994 200tdi Disco tax and tested
« on: September 19, 2010, 20:59:19 »
L reg 1994, Aegean blue 200tdi. Tax til Nov 2010 and MOT until May 2011.
I have just bought this car and driven it about 150 miles home all tickety boo. I have realised however that its not what I want.
The running gear, chassis, sills are incredibly clean and solid. The rear wheel arches have been welded but are solid and tidy. The boot floor has surface rust but is wire brushable and paint it to sort out. The inner wings need replacing.
The body work lets it down - it is heavily oxidised around the door bottoms and wheel arches.
Everything on the vehicle works well - the central locking sticks on the back drivers side sometimes.
It needs a new windscreen as its cracked across the top.
I am replacing the radiator as the fins were washed off by an oik with a pressure washer!
There is a repair to the exhaust between the down pipe and mid section. The mid section and rear box/pipe are relatively new.
Interior needs a valet and a repair to the cubby box lid.
Thatcham cat 1 alarm/immobiliser.
In short its no oil painting but very solid mechanically and structurally (apart from inner wings). Would make a great project for offroading or with some TLC would be a nice tidy 7 seat family motor.

Looking for
