Evening All,
I've come into a little bit of money and I'm thinking of changing my '88/89 EFI rangie for a Disco a little bit newer. I'm torn between diesel and another V8 (yes I know they're juicy but they make a lovely noise and they're not as slow as a 300 or 300 tdi). I've got several sets of alloys for the Rangie and tubular bumpers front and rear. What I'd like to know is up until what reg the bits from my Rangie will fit a Disco? I still have the original bumpers etc from the Rangie which will go back on before I sell it.

I agree with Dennis that the D2 is a much more refined machine than the D1. Not so sure about the electrics though
As for the wheels, yours will fit all the original Discos upto 1998 (S reg) when the new D2 came in. I think bumpers will fit as well, or if not they shouldn't need a lot of modification.
