New to all of this

Hi,
I'm Hannah, I don't have a landy yet, however, looking to buy a Discovery 2 Td5 in the very near future.
I have only ever owned modified cars, lowered, loud & I did the Nurburgring, however, I never ventured to the 4x4 side before.
But now it is time!
Hoping to get plenty of advice from you guys =]

Welcome to the forum, one thing to budget for is a decent diagnostic machine like hawkeye or nanocom cos being a land rover sooner or later you'll need one

Welcome to the forum

If yer getting a D2 then learn to weld

Welcome to Lz….

Where's the pics of these modified cars

Hello Hanna and welcome.

Probably not that exciting to anyone else,
But took my tuned R53 cooper s to Nurburgring, got through a set of tyres & cooked my brakes just on the north part of the track ...
Since then,I've had, B5 1.8T - When I realised there wasn't much tuning potential without spending big money I lost the love, then had a mk2 Granada, 2.8 V6, that was an awesome car!
72' Beetle, loved that, 2006 E91 Bmw, just a map alone got 260bhp, then a 1990 Mini 1275, I now have a 1990 Vw Breadvan which I've owned for 4 years amongst all this.
So a little miss-matched really! I shall upload some photos when I get chance.

In other news I purchased my first Td5 Disco this weekend
