Wanted, disco 200 door.

Oct 09, 2006 13 Replies

Anyone got a decent 200-series 4-door front door?



Father's managed to naff up one of mother's, by rolling it back into a wall with the door open. I've straightened the door enough for it to work but it'll never look right.



K reg motor, if it makes any odds. AFAIK I can transfer all the various componentry.

(if you've got a disco it can be worth the membership fee to get the discounts at places)

Though I usually find one the right colour the week after I've bought one the wrong colour :-(

These may be worth a try....

condition more important than colour - I can always get it resprayed; I'd rather a really good door with no corrosion or damage and the wrong colour than an iffy one the right colour.

cow-turd green, more or less. I doubt that's what land rover called it mind. Not a common one.

Yes. In Green. Yours for the postage, or you can collect. ;-)

similar colour to the one on your lift in the picture...

aha. You might be the source for the wheels I'll be hopefully wanting...

6½ or 7" steel wheels, 16", with 2" more offset than standard LR 90/110 wheels. i.e., I want the inner edge of the rim to be 2" further from the centre line of the vehicle. I guess they could be 15" as well, for all that

- I could put 31-10.5s on it. I've had 7"x15" white 8-spokes with more offset before, but I don't know how much it was.

It could be done with spacers, if such are available, but rims built like that would be better. I may yet end up either getting 'em made or making 'em meself...

Had a look at some series FC rims the other day, and while they're wider, the "inside" looks the same as standard 109" rims, i.e. all the extra width is on the outer side, so no good.

where d'ya see that? The only page I could find was this one:

there's a disco on the lift which is similar colour to the one I'm after a door for. Mind, I can go and look at it now...

... Eskdale green.

further to the door question I see the nice Mr Beamends has door skins... what sort of a job is it to change one?

since I managed to straighten the frame enough to get it to open and shut normally, this might be the best answer. Means getting it painted, but it's apt to need that anyway.
