slickdicko 0 Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 ive had one now for about 4 years and there a good runner but the boot fuks up after a bit ...have to keep a eye on the gear box as mine cost me £900 to have a recon fitted... and dont hit a bump in the road over 70mph or you will be then called shacking stephens. bodys are great though sun roofs need attention from time to time!! dicko Quote Link to post Share on other sites

STAN22 3 Posted May 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Got 5 bf goodrich muds but not going to put them on untill september time, dont need them in the summer! getting a snorkel from billing in july for it. Not going to bother with a lift seen 2 many problems with them! Boot floor is mint not a spot of rust on it full service history at 110k. Had a 200 tdi before and i like the 300 alot more. Trying to sell the 200 at the minute but not having much luck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dogman541 0 Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 (edited) Just thought id show ya all a few photo's of my disco i picked up today.110k miles with fsh its mint. Will look great when i get my bf goodrich muds on it and a snorkel. Very tidy,i've just bought a 1994 isuzu trooper LWB and its just as tidy, only looks a couple of years old. anyone have any experience with these?comments good or bad would be appreciated. Its the 3.1 diesel automatic,it is badged as an opel monterey.full electrics and leather interior.handling by lotus. never had a 4x4,had a few audi's but got fed up with paying through the nose to fix faulty sensors and huge service bills.so i opted for something bullet proof and simple fancied a toyota hilux but this caught my eye.

DDD 4 Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 Don't forget the slight angle of the valves in the 300. Bl00dy expensive when the belt snaps or tensioner gives up. This doesn't happen on a 200 - most you'll get is a bent push rod. Nice motor though - check the front inner wings under where the shielded cables run (notorious for collecting water) and the rear floor - may look ok but lift the rubber mat & look properly plus the front sections of rear wheel arches, the bit hidden by the rear doors. Parts are cheap & should run for ages IF properly looked after. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
