    Well done JonnyP. I'd love a Disco but funds don't quite stretch that far for me.

    Been very busy on the Disco. Replaced the main and crankshaft bearings, put in a new timing belt, tensioner n idler and I have just painted it.
    After uming and ahing over what colour to paint it, a mate of mine found some cheap chassis paint that he was impressed with, so I went with that.
    It was a bit too cold when I painted it and I got more runs than Brian Lara, but I managed to sort most of them. I will re-do it again when it warms up (if it ever warms up )





    I also have a 2000 watt 7 speaker sound system fitted, which I bought from the proceeds from selling my old air rifle.
    Loads more stuff to sort on it, like the front bumper needs tidying, the interior needs sorting. I still have the oil light flickering on idle, and its leaking a bit of oil from the head gasket, so will sort that at some point..

    Really good workhorse and it's looking good, I killed mine with 100,000 mile of motorway driving. But for normal road speeds they appear to last forever.
