sorry to be the jonny come lately!!!
I have a 96 disco as you do... it is my first and i bought it out of pennsylvania. it was a good 10 hour drive back to KY too. drove like a champ except for the steering. I need to put a TLC into it but can't totally justify the cost yet for local commuting. I, like you, have hung up the rover for long trips aside from the occasional camping/fishing trip. Too much $$$.

another issue is all of the water leaks in the cab, since you are looking for other disco owners with vehicle boo boos! fixed one but still haven't fixed the big leak in the bed...

have fun and cheers!!!! i love my rover!

As for routing wires in the firewall, I found that you can squeeze them through the existing rubber grommet on the drivers side to the left of the pedals. There is enough room to fit a few more wires and you don't have to punch any new leaky holes!! Hope it helps

Loss of cruise control is a common issue. It is a vacuum system and if you do some google searches you will see the fixes out there. Basically the rubber hose's wear out and you either replace them or if you can cut off the worn part. The cruise control unit is in the front of the engine compartement under the jack. You can barely see it but you can trace the hoses back to the block and see where they attach. I fixed mine in about 20 min's and it is a recurring fix.
