At this moment in time it's got a standard n/a rover 3500 V8 in it, accelerates really well in low box :P

And we're in the process of building a 3.9 supercharged lump for it, which i going to be shitting scary. Will find out a full run down of what's on the current one/ going into the new engine for you (Y) Then it;s got the big full stainless exhaust system on it, looks pretty all the way from the manifold and sounds rather sexy! :P

I can bet that the footwell will be full of water, it's going to find its way through anyway, door seal, holes in the floor for drainage, through the boot, through the bulkhead etc etc. I wouldn't have thought that would have any interior anyway.

Yep, it was in the water for about 5 min's while we swapped around so Nigel could try and get it out.

It was up to the door handels at one point, and the water inside was at the same level.

All the interior was nailed, but theres only two buckets in there anyway. The winch went nuts afterwards and cooked itself, BUT it still drove the rest of the day. And drove home with all lights working.

TDI ***.

*It's quite funny seeing those pics, that disco has a 2" lift and is on big tyres. That muds almost 5 Feet deep :P

Basically, the 80" and the 86" need money spending on them, and my mate can't really afford to keep all three of them.

I'll get a full list of things when I get back from school, has V5, no mot, not sure on tax. Structually it's mint, had new rear cross put on it, the engine is brilliant, body's great, just needs a little bit of love.
