After years of wanting one I finally purchased my first disco 3 at the weekend fr forum member brianabbot. It's a 55 S model but has many upgrades to and is great condition. Big thanks to the other forum member Geoff who guided me through what to look for etc.
Got it for a great price so a little in the kitty for a few upgrades!!

First upgrade needs to be a Golden Amexco
If your household does not have em, get quality tools and Baldrian / Valerian drops. Think of doing a Yoga course and relax.
Once you got all of this you can drive.
CONGRATS and have fun.

Sorry for the poor quality just took some in the rain on my phone. I think any mods will be aesthetic. Definitely need a 13 towbar fitting, back windows tinting, side steps (wife's a short ) and possible leather retrim (and if I did that, I'd have to replace the interior lights with LEDs.
