Hi all, Sadly I'm selling my VGC Disco 2 :( A copy of the AutoTrader blurb is below with all info. I am the 3rd owner and this has been a fantastic vehicle, starts every time. I return roughly 30 mpg on a typical run, on a longer motorway run that creeps up slightly. Condition wise, it's...

Hi all, Looking for someone not too far from me that would read the codes on my Disco. Will happily provide beer tokens or similar for the favour. Trying to get to the bottom of the Three Amigos fault. Thanks Will

Morning all, I put a new HU in my Disco but now have poorer radio reception and no AM. I understand that the second aerial is an amplified one but I wasn't sure how to connect it as well as the standard one. Does anyone know how to connect both to an after market HU? Is there an adapter or...

Morning all, This has happened twice now in the 2 weeks I've owned my Disco. Driving along normally, the ABS, TC and downhill warning lights come on on the dash. There is no change in how it drives but still slightly concerning. Any ideas? Thanks Will

Morning all, I am half way through installing (and blowing out and cleaning inside the dash) my new stereo in the Disco. So far I have removed the standard head unit and CD changer and begun tidying the wiring loom to allow a bit more room for the new one. My question, as the speakers are all...

Hi all, I'm looking for a set of General Grabber ATs or AT2s for my Disco. My current tyres are 255x65x16. Cheers Will

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

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...

Morning all, My Landy hasn't been driven more than 2 miles in the past 10+ years. The oil on the diff casing, is this any to worry about? Cheers Will

Hi all, My restoration is coming quite nicely now. I am looking at replacing the leaf springs and a friend of mine suggested I go for parabolic springs to give it a bit more lift. Is this correct and will I need to replace anything else if these springs do give more lift? Cheers Will

Has anyone converted their Series 3 to a canvas back? Where did you get all of the parts from to convert it if so? Easy job? Cheers Will

Hi all, Is a Defender 90 wider or is the driving position better than that of a Series 3? I have a Series 3 I'm slowly restoring and the driving position is very tight (the door is literally resting on me) being over 6ft. I'm looking at getting a 90 from Rugged Guide in the coming months to...

Hi all, I've been doing a lot of reading lately about restoring a Series 3. I'm wondering if I've bitten off way more than I can chew here. If you have a look at the album (link attached), I've tried to show all of the rust and damage to the Landy that needs doing. I don't think anything has...

Hi all, We have an X reg Disco XS in the maroon colour, 110k miles and in excellent condition. For the amount of vehicle and the features it has we don't seem to be getting offers of much above £3k... An auction house said we'd be lucky to get £3k. Is this right? There just isn't a market for...

Hi all, I finally made a start on the S3 during my day off this week. A couple of weeks ago I spent the best part of 4 hours with the father-in-law getting the engine to fire. I still have the blister from the pull handle to prove it! The engine has only done 38k miles and ticked over lovely...

Hi all, I've joined with the intention of learning a lot about working on and restoring a Land Rover. This is the first time I've really been exposed to one so my current knowledge is lacking! Just recently we had a loss in the family and one of the things left behind was what was hopefully...
