1996 Disco 300 TDI, passed 110k miles this morning. I've been trying to deal with potential problems such as the infamous alarm spider before they strike. Still sounds great, although that might be the Double S exhaust and Safari snorkel....
1996 Discovery 300TDI. She's got it where it counts...

95 'n' reg 3.9 v8 144,000 and still going strong, just needs the 16 new tappets fitting.

Dread to think how much fuel its used!

Gav.


Assuming 15 to the gallon...

2,160,000 Gallons of fuel!

 :shock:


think the maths is wrong. avg 15 mpg to the gallon is

144,000 miles / 15 mpg = 9600 Gallons.  

was going to work out how much that is but dont know what price to avg per gallon as its all changed over time!
