Post by: Mareng on January 25, 2007, 19:01:42: looks very similar to the one on your profile which I presume is the one you sold, so have you bought it back, or did you vow never to buy another Disco when you sold the last one?

:D

Well, I think it's quite funny :lol:

I decided recently that I really needed to get a 4x4 again and started to look (at all sorts!). Then, I remembered that the chap that bought my Discovery mentioned that he might just use it for his Wales trip and look to sell afterwards - so I emailed him to see if he still had it / wanted to sell it.

No, more complicated than that! I'm having my old Discovery back and he is having my Alfa (plus a bit of cash) as a p/x against a TD5 :-s

Well spotted :) It now has a winch, Guardian rear bumper, rock/tree sliders, snorkel ... and the gearbox/transferbox have been replaced :D

Post by: Cal on January 25, 2007, 21:21:57: Excellent work Gords!!

You must be well chuffed??

I am really suffering without my Disco so can imagine how pleased you are. 8)

Nice mods too - saves you a bit of work!

My plan was to go 12 months without a landy and save like mad - not sure I can manage it - especially with this snow about! :twisted:

Post by: beast5680 on January 25, 2007, 21:33:16: so the idea is sell it to someone else they fix it and you buy it back again better well done that man :lol:
Title: hehehe hahaha!
Post by: dreadnought110 on January 25, 2007, 21:37:59: had a relative who had his car nicked a few years ago got it back with better seats and alloy wheels and a full tank of fuel.. 8) 8)

suits us both really! He got the use he wanted out of it and moved on to his next vehicle without the hassle of selling. I got a car back that I know the history of with the major problem fixed (gearbox) plus extras :D

My series Landy is with a guy who is slowly restoring it bit by bit and he has said if I ever want it back just make him a sensible offer :wink:

I will wait until the rear cross member has been done before I make an offer!!!!

Thanks mate! :roll: :wink:

I know what you mean - it's better than what was on there before but I don't know that I would have chosen it. I'll see what it's like after I've looked at it a few times :)
