LO10 MUD, LO75 MUD both available. Latter works for me for £399..... (edit: but duh - can't be fitted on a car of your disco's age)

AH11 AWD (or other "AWD" variant? I am not sure my suggestion works fabulously. SWxxMUD?)

:?
Hmm SW55 MUD sort of works. SW<year of birth> MUD is available but too new for the car.

Hmm. That's a possibility. Just a pattern that looks pleasing could work, it doesn't necessarily need to mean something.

The engine is a Ford / PSA joint effort. A bit tenuous here.
The AJD is a family of V6 and V8 turbodiesel engines with a clean-sheet architecture and variable valve timing developed by Ford of Europe for its then-subsidiaries Jaguar and Land Rover, as well as for its partner PSA Group working under the Gemini joint development and production agreement. It is called the AJD-V6 in the Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles and the DT17/DT20 by Citroën and Peugeot.
