New member and a dream come true!

Hi there to all, just wanted to share that I can vouch that dreams definitely do come true as I'm finally (after three decades of dreaming) the 'more than happy' owner of a Land Rover, a 1996 Discovery 2.5 TDI I work full-time as a professional wildlife artist and hope to one day have the nerve to do a little off-roading. Looking forward to getting to know LR club members

Hi there and thanks for your 'welcome'. I bought my landy from a friend, he's a mechanic and has kept it in really good condition etc having had all it's services/passed MOT's etc. It wasn't really for sale in the first place but he knew I was after one and he'd got his heart set on a motorbike and the rest is history so they say

Thanks for your 'welcome' and yep I do intend to enjoy my LR to the full and if that means donning some overalls and learning how to weld then I'm all for it - life's a continuous learning curve that we should ride like the crest of a wave!

RichP & Juiceyv8 better to be dropped in at the deep end than to never learn to swim at all ;-)

Cheers for that, I think!
Just hoping that a 50:50 mixture of enthusiasm and insanity will see me through

It will, as will your your wit to see you through this site, welcome. Oh I have a Dicovery I'll sell you for spares when you need them.

Welcome to the madhouse, Kerry.

There's just two things you need to know about owning a Land Rover:

a) If it ain't broke, it soon will be

b) If it is broke, there'll be someone on this forum that knows how to fix it

And if you need any tools, let me know.
