I do a few local lanes in my P38 and did the LRO training day at Rockingham in it - an experience and a half (highly recommended for £50).

I've just had a free and very enjoyable afternoon in the new 4.4 V8 Diesel Range Rover at Rockingham Castle with Ed Cobley as my guide. Had about 30 minutes on road and was blown away by the performance, it really is something (coming from a 4.6 P38...). Like the flappy paddles, although...

I've got a Thule carrier for my P38 which carries three bikes. A quality bit of kit for around £100. Just bolts onto tow ball nice and easy.

After a disagreement with the garage door and the silly mobile aerial on the roof... I need to drop the headlining at the rear to gain access to the aerial cable. My question is, how to I remove the plastic panels that sit inside the boot over the B pillar (i.e. between the boot opening and rear...

Booked mine too and it is supposed to by a lot of driving, both on and off road. You aren't sharing the vehicle with other people - just you and instructor and up to two guests who can also drive, for 3 hours, although there will be an intro before you get going.

What diameter hose is needed for this - I need to replace some on mine?

They swan necks occasionally pop up on eBay, but expect to £75 upwards... Luckily after buying my P38, when I opened the floor hatch there was a brand new one sitting there!

Love mine too. Just sold my regular car as since getting the RR I hardly drove the car and don't do that many miles. Worked out that the cost saving of tax/insurance/mot on my car would pay for the difference in fuel costs for the mileage I do...

Yep, I'm going with the wife and kids in our P38 4.6 for a gentle workout. Do you know the opening time - is it 10:00 -16:00?

Well we were (wife plus 2 kids, plus a car load of camping gear) all heading to the south of France in my P38 4.6 HSE, but never made it! I'm glad to say that it was simply because we enjoyed Brittany so much that we didn't want to go any further south. The 8 hour 450 mile journey from south...

Do you mind saying how much it cost to have the modulator kit fitted?

Hi HSE30, I see these are out of stock at the moment, how long before they are available again - I am now getting the clicky break pedal...

Here you go: http://www.lro.com/events/ Look for the "LRO Adventure Club Driver Training day". Have got a few small videos which I will try and upload soon. Was a bonus that we only had the vehicles in our group so lots of instructor attention.

Did an LRO training day at Rockingham Castle on Saturday in my P38 4.6 HSE along with a friend in his bobtail classic. The day was simply amazing, a fantastic safe way to learn some off road techniques and gain an insight to just what these vehicles are capable of. The weather was lovely...

I replaced all air suspensiin bags but had a minor leak on the front drivers side where the pipe goes into the top and overnight the whole car would drop a bit. After trying to fix and naking it wirse (pipe is now scored and needs chopping but is already quite short) it now drops pretty...
