Hello everyone. My name is Rich, and I live in the lovely Staffordshire countryside. Im buying a Discovery 2 TD5 today from a colleague at work, as Ive always wanted one.

Im sure this forum is going to be very helpful, as I love tinkering with vehicles. I look forward to chatting with you, about Discos for many years to come...

Welcome to landyzone and the joys of green oval ownership there will be ups and downs and they can drive you to distraction.
But still love every minute

Cheers, picked up the Disco today. Drives like a bloody tanker. My daily drive is a Transit, but this is a big wallowy thing. Im going to be asking a lot of questions believe me...

Hi and welcome!

The disco 2 is a great truck. Just make sure you keep an eye on the rear end of the chassis for rust and invest in a nanocom.

I guess it all depends what you are used to and how you drive it, but a D2 should not "wallow like a tanker". You might want to check the suspension.
Welcome BTW
