    Adventurer - Gunsmoke Silver front lettering

    Hi all, I am looking for the Land Rover lettering for the from of my Disco 2 Adventurer spec. Some of the letters have broken bits and I'd like to smarten it up. I can't find any on eBay so hopefully someone can't point me in the right direction. Thanks Will

    Breaking - Discovery 2 TD5 7 seater

    Only just seen this thread too. I could do with a few parts if not too late? Window trims, door trim (driver's door) and more.

    Here it is complete with mud! I need to do a couple of bits, the driver's side window trim is coming away so I need to replace that and also the an interior window trim on the door. Does anyone know when LR stopped fitting the centre diff in the Disco 2 range?

    New Disco arriving on Saturday

    I picked it up yesterday and so far I'm chuffed, drives lovely, condition is very good. Can't wait to tinker with it. Naturally the other half is out today and has taken the Disco with her!

    Thanks for the reply. I have been assured it is mechanically sound so I'm actually pretty excited. I'm coming from an Audi S3 so this really is a step sideways! Would you recommend a different map? The mileage is not high for a Disco which was one of my search criteria.

    New Disco arriving on Saturday

    Hi all, Just put a deposit down on my first Disco - Land Rover Discovery 2.5 Td5 Adventurer 7 seat 5dr I did a fair bit of reading on here about what to look for and things and I think this is a pretty good buy. It just had its MOT today which failed on suspension bushings, the garage has...

    Is this anything to worry about?

    I'll give it a good checking over. It's going to be sanded down to bare metal and painted before the tub goes back on.

    Thinking about replacing the gasket and oil seal as everything is accessible at the moment.

    Restoration has begun - slowly!

    The welds are terrible! I will be redoing all of them. Couple more pictures of the weekend's progress. Question, what can I spray inside the chassis before wax oil to help hold the rust? The section in the picture wasn't terrible but wasn't great either. I was thinking of spraying as much...

    Replacing leaf springs

    My standard springs look alright I think but as the tub is off and I'm restoring everything from the ground up I thought it could be an option to replace/upgrade. My rear springs have 4 springs so I believe these have come from a 109 at some point. Pretty still on an 88.

    Restoration has begun - slowly!

    Another small update. Started the long process of grinding and rust removal. Quite pleased with how well it's coming together. I fully expecting things to start moving a lot quicker now I have more time on my hands. First coat or red oxide on the bumper. Going to give it 2 coats of red before...
