Disco 3 and me

[AutoshiteBoy]

Did you ever read the full story of the Rowan Atkinson's rebuilt F1? Fascinating.

[LynehamHerc]

I read a brief article in Car.
Have you got a link to the full story?

[AutoshiteBoy]

The full story switched to Haymarket's Car & Classic. Sorry, I've not got a link. Its truly awe-inspiring. The level of detail and depth of engineering was fascinating to behold.

Holy stuff etc.

An MOT pass after rear drop links cut off.

Turbo still partially seized. Injectors probably ok.

Cambelts replaced.
Aux belt and tensioner replaced.
Next up new compressor, rebuild was partial due to twisted housing so genuine here we come.

Building up to body off for turbo.
Must be mad. 209,000 miles.

I'd forgot about this, I'm impressed it's still going.

And my Shogun has yet to even blow a bulb approaching 7 years old. My missus Disco is currently in bits.

It hasn't missed a beat, and pulled our old twin axle caravan like it's not there.
Genuinely used it for everything. Van, bike, 7 up, tow hack.

That's good for a 'modern' one.
Cut my teeth on them from 86 to 92.

Er... at the risk of tempting fate, so is my D3

Bought another.
