Apologies for the delayed response, I didn't realise there had been a reply to this thread! Do you know of any Irish sites that I could have a look at? I'm not overly familiar with that side of the pond! David.

I’m trying to find my fathers old Range Rover Classic. It was a 1994 3.9 Vogue Soft Dash model in Avalon Blue with the silver 16” 5 spoke alloy wheels. It wore the registration number L530 AHS when we owned it. The chassis number was SALLHAMM3MA651937. The car was traded into Inverclyde Land...

Believe what you will... There's only a few people that know the outcome and an NDA that was signed prevents anybody else from finding out. David.

Jesus... holy thread revival... This must have been 7 years ago now. You're missing the point here... I've been a Land Rover enthusiast for many years and have had well over 30 of them including L322's, P38's, Disco 2's, Series LR's and Forward Controls. The reason this kicked off is because...

Guys, I can appreciate that it is more then likely you don't agree with what I am doing however there are some points I would like to make: 1. The vehicle was serviced 3 weeks prior to this shaft failing, the rear uni with the grease nipple was greased and the front inspected with no signs...

Guys, I am on the final hurdle proving that the problem with the Discovery 2 front propshaft is a design fault to Land Rover. I just need to know specifically what engine and gearbox you guys have experienced the front propshaft damage on. If you could please vote in the above poll i'd...

Thought I'd just update this a little. We have now been through 2 hearings in the courts and Land Rover has tried to dismiss it on both occasions. The Sheriff last time we were in court has set a date to go to proof (Final Trial) as Land Rover at the 1st hearing failed to lodge any answers...

You won't get anyone who loves a Landy more then myself. I currently have a Disco 2, Disco 3 and 5 Series 2B Forward Control's sitting on the driveway. The whole point of this is that LR know there is a design fault with this car and have managed to shrug it off for years. Fact of the...

Guys, Final bit of help that I need to ask for..... If your propshaft has failed, can you please post answers to the following questions: 1. Is your car a TD5 or a V8? 2. Is yours a Manual or Automatic? Thanks in advance. Also, If you don't mind guys, can i trouble you to post...

I have been informed that the email address in my first post isn't working, this is my fault and a typo. Email address should be [email protected] Regards David.

Hi Guys, I have commenced legal proceedings against Land Rover following their refusal to accept liability for failure of the front propshaft on my Disco 2. I urgently need all the help I can get from people who know of experts in this field, have experienced similar failures or engaged in...

its a 2B, and its no. 4 for me!! I have: 1 Flat Bed 1 Flat Bed that was scottish hydro's mobile workshop 1 with a cherry picker. and the one that is on the trailer. Two of them need new chassis, and i have 2 new chassis, the one i bought yesterday i was going to break, but the...

that was all the guy had left. He was breaking it for spares, so i wrote to him and told him name his price for everything he had left. The sub chassis has been cut just behind the cab. And what you see is all that was left. David.

After the topic about towing it home, here's two pictures of what it looked like on the trailer. The New Discovery towed it home a treat, but the 15mpg from the Diesel was slightly worrying!!

i'm going to try and get the straps with the D loops in them to go over the wheels. And then just some heavy duty straps to hold the rest of it in general. David.
