Old disco is a tdi 300 deisel, I sit on 85 to 90kmh. Hills slow me down a bit if they are long, turbo temps start to creep up a bit. Have been told by some you can get 900km from a tank of fuel. I have never had them figures, best ever was 720km with that roof rack and ladders on. The more you carry the more fuel you use and as it was a work vehicle it was loaded all the time. If I can get 600km a tank I will be happy while towing. cheers blaze
One of my mates who is semi pro with the camera reckons I should submit some for publication, I dont photoshop any photos and they come straight off the camera and I dont think they are good enough. But I do see what he has published, of late they have been postcards and calanders and a couple of mags, he puts a fair amont of work into them cheers blaze
Already got work teed up when we get to Perth doing some of the 4x4's in a rally or something that runs north of Perth on easter weekend, dont know how many yet though. cheers blaze
Best wishes Robert for your life on the road, hope you get plenty of work.
Re your Disco, I have friends with an 02 model (petrol). They recently upgraded from a camper trailer to a Jayco Sterling and in order to fit a weight distribution hitch they replaced the rear air bags with coil springs. They now find that the rig tows much better and is more stable on the road since doing the modification. As I'm not a Disco owner myself I can't give much more details than that.
Hi Jim Towed the van around some of the worst roads you may encounter on the way to our annual camp, twisty, bumpy and hilly and the van tows straight and true even when taking evasive action. I run 20 pound in the air bags (only air assist). I very neally put air assist under the van this year to lift it up to get into the annual camp site as it was very wet and bogged up. Still may fit them one day as it would be handy to get another 3 inch cleanacr at times cheers blaze

I can make it rain or snow but the effect is not that good, can also make the clouds move, problem with these images is that they are 14mb and thats a gif file
