Im having a nightmare currently with my newly purchased discovery 2. I have been having an issue of my handbrake cable acting as my earth due to previous owner leaving the main earth off just by the battery. I was attempting to re-fit this back to where it should have been to stop the issue...

To be honest iv had my heart set on a td5 facelift model for quite a while, not too fussy on auto or manual but i think my budget needs upping though from what iv been and looked at im probably about a grand shy of getting a nice one at the moment. Only wanting to get my kid out doing some...

oh yea i deffo get what ur sayin because i know my budget isnt obv the best, 2 grand for a disco is low end really, when i say too much money i mean they have it up for one price then just will not budge when theres a list as long as my arm for repairs that they fail to mention/have no clue...

Hi guys, first post, Im about to purchase my first land rover, a d2 with a few mods on it. The owner says it has a stage 2 re-map on it but has no proof, is there any way of me actually finding out if this is the case? or do i simply line up next to another d2 with a stage 1 and see who is...
