    Bought a Disco 1 via auction - need some advice please

    We recently bought a 1995 Discovery 1 V8 3.9L online via auction and will collect it soon. As we're collecting it from Canada, do you see any parts (besides the usual service items) that need to be replaced in order to do a long-distance drive home?
