    Lanes near Gloucester?

    I am thinking about getting a 4x4 again as I do miss getting out in the countryside. Does anyone know if there's much in the way of green lanes or 4x4 clubs within short driving distance of Gloucester? Cheers

    Looking to get back into it - with a UTV?

    Hi chaps, I have been out of the off roading scene for some years, having started with a gaylander, moving up to a disco 300 tdi and arguably downgrading to a Disco 2 TD5. I want to get back into the off road/green lane scene when/if this lockdown ever ends, but problem is I don't have the...

    Disco 2 - any worth having?

    Not been on here for years and that's because I have not had a Landy for yonks now! My last was a early Disco 2 which replaced my beloved D1 300tdi. They both suffered from serious chassis corrosion. On my travels today, I spotted two Disco 2 TD5s for sale on a forecourt. One was on a 03 plate...

    When was the dash updated?

    Got my eye on a W reg Defender 90. Looks OK but can't tell if it would have the original type interior/dash or the slightly mordernised one? Anyone know if it would look like this? Cheers

    Rampant rabbit

    Need to buy a Rampant rabbit for a friend's birthday and thought this would be the best place to ask. I don't know much about them. What is it that makes them special and what's the best one to get?

    TD5 or 300tdi 90?

    I am looking for a 90 to replace my TD5 disco. Have been looking for a decent 300 tdi 90 for 6k for a while but they're hard to come by. On the other hand, I have seen loads of 8-10 year old 90 TD5s for the same money, many of which are in better condition. I used to have a 300 tdi disco...

    Soft top 90?

    I found a nice Defender but I'm not sure about it. It's P reg, for 6k. Had its engine replaced in May. (newer one has 120k on the clock) As you can see it has a soft top. Ideal for weather like this. Do you know if it would have been factory fit or is it likely to have had its roof cut off...

    TD5 Radiator leak

    Ok so I bought my TD5 Discovery just over a month ago and noticed it was losing coolant. I took it to a Landy specialist for diagnosis due to fear of having a HGF. Anyway, they found a radiator leak and quoted £350 to replace it. I phoned up the 2nd hand car sales place where I bought the...

    TD5 coolant loss

    My TD5 seems to be losing coolant. I topped it up about 3 days ago and it has dropped. I know this is a sign of HGF but so far I haven't seen any other symptoms. - Oil cap is clean - Temp gauge is fine - No white smoke - Cabin heating works fine I haven't spotted any obvious leaks either but...

    Hole in chassis...

    Today I noticed that I have a hole in my 2001 D2 chassis on the section which supports the fuel tank. Here's a pic: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8517/8387888198_57b52f42db_h.jpg The pic isn't the best but the fuel tank is at the top. Is this an MOT fail and how much am I looking at to get...

    Why can't we call them "trucks"?

    So most of us know that we can't call our Landy's "truck's". It's clearly frowned upon amongst Landy enthusiasts and you will be laughed at by them if you use the term "truck" when referring to a Landy or similar... Yet most Americans call their 4x4s "trucks" and it's perfectly acceptable/normal...

    Rear light guards

    Does anyone know where I can get rear light guards for reasonable money? (pre-face lift) I've looked on ebay and even second hand ones seem to go for £60+. Why so much for a bit of plastic? They're so expensive that I actually thought I was looking at a rangie part until I looked twice!

    TD5 won't go over 2500 rpm

    My TD5 Disco II still won't go over 2500 RPM when under load. (it will only go over 2500 rpm when stationary) The car will start juddering/kangarooing as soon as I try when ascending a hill or when trying to reach 70 mph on a motorway etc. So far I have replaced the turbo wastegate modulator...

    TD5 - What's missing?

    I noticed that there's some bolt holes on the right hand side of my TD5 engine. Not sure what's supposed to go there. Perhaps air con? Anyone know for sure?

    New Disco

    I missed my old Disco so much that I decided to get another. Here's my new toy: It's only an S model but it's relatively tidy. It has a few niggles but I didn't pay a lot for it. I'm not sure about those "rock sliders" though. Are they the real deal or just for show? They look a bit like side...
