Well I've got it home, it seems to drive very well. One thing that has got me a little confused is that it looks like it has a manual injector pump. I don't know if I should be concerned about that or pleased that it has saved me a job changing it over. I assume the manual pump explains why the crui...

Well it looks like I've just bought this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/230987255734
Bit of a gamble given I've not seen it in the flesh but if it's as good as it has been described then it should be OK. Off to collect it tomorrow.

Disco injector pump.
Is the pump in the photo attached a manual or EDC one? It's on a P plate disco so it should be EDC but the cables attached to it make me think it might be a manual...

I'm not expecting something that is bone dry but I think a drip on the ground every 2-3 feet is a little excessive. Given Phil had suggested an MoT fail would normally be 500-600quid I was hoping that for about twice that money I would get something that didn't leave a trail behind on the road every...

if you are going to take engine/box out the sealis easy to change when everything on the floor why not make a low offer dave I want to run it though for a good few months first and where I reversed it back on to his drive there was a splat of oil about every 3 feet so it's more than just a slight w...

Ahh right, thanks Dave. There's no danger of me getting one by accident then as a Td5 would be well out of my budget. Current best contender is this one which we're off to look at on Saturday if it's not sold before then: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201301204987040/ That one should...

There's one on eBay finishing tomorro.. At £670 at the moment... Is that the one I've linked above? I've had a drive of it today and it drives well, no oil leaks or smoke, bodywork isn't very clever though and there are even a few patches on the chassis which I wasn't really expecting at that age....

Does anyone know anything about this one? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221196804436 Looks like it has been local all its life. The bloke says he wants £1300 for it. I'm off to have a look at it tomorrow I think, although the price seems a little high unless it's very tidy. I know it'll have the electr...

Hi Dave, Yes ideally I want a manual pump one, if I end up getting a later one I will probably convert it back to manual. I agree about the MoT point, it would be nice to get one with some MoT, even if it is only a few days, as it means it can be driven home and any faults can hopefully be spotted b...

Looks rather dear to butcher it really.....you'll probably find them around the 5-600 mark.....on't ebay I'm struggling to find any that cheap on your favourite site Phil, here are some of the ones I've seen that have ended recently: This one has an engine issue and 6 months MoT and ended at £795:...
