Hi New Landy Owner here.

Hi,
I just picked up a new (to me ) Land Rover Discovery Series 2 GS. Never had one before but, I was strangely drawn to this big blue motor!

It's in decent shape for a 18 yr old. 103k miles on the clock. After buying it I took it to my local 4x4 land rover specialist who checked it over, gave it the thumbs up and has given me a list of things to do.

I've landed here as this forum keeps cropping up in my How do I googles.

Welcome. It’s a brilliant source of info

Yeah it is a great source of info. The Haynes' manuals don't describe the pain points in the same way!!

The manual fails to tell you that nearly all the old bolts snap

Funny you should say that. I was using another posters guide to install a reversing camera (the guide was great btw, I will comment in that thread) Anyhoo needed to run a wire to earth and found an existing earth strap so decided to run the ground cable to that. I spent more time messing around with the cheesy nut of the earth point than I did with the rest of the install! To be fair that nut is getting on for 20 years old!
