    Defender or Discovery?

    Hi guys, I'm buying myself a landy. But I am unsure whether to get a Defender or a Disco. I really like the practicality of the Defender but I heard they will be outlawed in 2015 to meet this pedestrian safety malarkey. Is this correct? My dad has a 2004 Discovery and I really like that too...

    WaxOyl-ing my Disco

    Hi guys, I spent this morning WaxOyl-ing my discovery 2. Definitely worth doing if you want your disco to last. It will kill any existing rust and prevent new rust forming.

    Hi, I'm Richard. I recently bought myself a new Discovery 2 with 126, 000 miles on it! :eek:. What checks can I make to establish if there is wear in the drive and transmission components? Also, what would you say is the mileage that these Discos 'die'? Mine has a full service history.
