The underbody guards are already on my to do list as I intend on going green laning (nothing too serious as I don't ant to wreck it and so the wife still likes it), im going to make my own dog guard and the snorkel was on the back of my mind just purely for cosmetics if anything else as I love...

Cheers, was looking at wheel spacers as the wheels currently sit a little but too much into the arches for my liking. Do you know what kind issues fitting them might cause? Could a slight adjustment to the lights make a difference to the reflection off the bonnet?

Struggling to add all the images of the disco on the same post so here's one of the front angle, I'll post more when I figure out how to add them all at once

Well not exactly, I bought a 200tdi commercial back in March but it needed work and therefore sat in the workshop gathering dust until I could find the time to start the repairs. Work has been really busy and the 200 was just gathering dust and this little beauty came up on a sales page on...

I don't have any pics yet as I was in a rush getting back but I was pleasantly surprised at the condition of it. For 200,000 miles the engine is spot on and is sat at 80mph quite comfortably on the motoway. It came with a new clutch just fitted, a new battery and rear seats should I want to fit...

Well, today's the day I pick up my first Land Rover, looking forward to it although a bit apprehensive as I haven't seen it. I bought it off eBay mainly due to the sellers feedback and amount of items sold and the fact he sounded genuine about the work he has done on it so far. I'm in no rush to...

Thanks, a pal if mine has his own paint shop 3 units down from mine but I'll defo be in touch re powder coating

Sound, I'm in Irlam. Looking forward to stripping it as I hope to use it as advertising my business for more resto work

Thanks mate, appreciate it. Where abouts are you?

Well after years of looking and thinking, I finally took the plunge and bought myself a Land Rover. An L reg disco commercial and will hopefully be picking it up on Tuesday. I've bought it to restore and to use as a towing vehicle for my welding business. It's relitavley straight although I'm...

A pal if mine has a D3 auto. He has had the engine cleaned by a company called Terraclean. Not sure exactly what they do to it but he claims that it is now more responsive, quieter and gets around 32-34mpg!!! Sounds good to me and it's good to know that I could probably get a decent D3 for my...

I don't have a clue if I'm honest, I've always wanted a LR so having my own business now is helping me get one

What kind of issues do you have with the D2? I can't afford a D4 but I'm guessing their pretty much the same as the D3? With my budget of around £8k would that get me a reasonable D3 or would I be buying someone else problems?

Morning all. I have a welding business and currently use a LWB merc sprinter for traveling from site to site. It's a great bus but sometimes I'm lugging it around with a big generator/welder plus tools and equipment to site when all I need is my cantilever tool box and my small inverter...

Morning all, I have actually been a member on here for some time but only visited a few times as I have been mega busy getting married having kids and setting my welding business up. I have had a passion for Landrovers since I was a kid when my granddad gave me a red 90 truck cab toy car...

Many thanks for all your input, your explanation of things to check would make it very easy for me to notice any issues I'm sure. Unfortunately though, just yesterday the clutch started slipping in the wife's Insignia and now today it has gone into limp mode with a suspected turbo problem so...

Drive it around the driveway! How bigs your bloody driveway???

Thanks for this. As I said, when it comes to mechanics I'm as dumb as they come. What is the Black Death?

Yeah that's the one, I want a diesel so I can use it for work towing my welding gear about but for the condition and the noise of the v8, I just can't not go for it. If it turns out to be a shed then I don't mind walking away and finding a diesel. I'll actually get more use out of a diesel

Thanks for the tips guys, its good to know that body parts aren't too much ££ and as I said, being a welder I will be doing all the work myself. The disco is a 1 owner from new with fsh so hopefully not much to do as the pictures do do it justice but will know better when I get there on...
