    Disco 1 My 'new' Discovery... what the bl**dy hell do I do with it?

    I'm seriously tempted to go the 6x6 route :D I've got a friend who's selling me his disco minus the engine for spare parts (he has good chassis/bad body and I have bad chassis/good body) and I know some very good welders as well, so making it initially into a badass 6x4 wouldn't be too much of a...

    Disco 1 My 'new' Discovery... what the bl**dy hell do I do with it?

    I've been a proud owner of a Discovery 3 for about 2 years now and I've been tinkering here and there, getting it modded just as I like it for off roading and green laning, but I've kind of hit the point where everything I want to do to it now is either not available, or too damn expensive...

    bonnet pods ??

    you wouldn't be talking 'bout that heap a crap on my freddies bonnet would ya? ;-) apart from the protrac ones from mm4x4, i've not seen any other bonnet pods for the freelander... there's a few non specific roof pods on fleebay but they're expensive, so i'd say go for bumber or roof mounted...

    well, i spoke to the garage today, seems they misunderstood a few things as when they first opened my bonnet, they saw all the clutch fluid the RAC guy had spilled on the engine and assumed my slave cylinder was external. when they started dismantling stuff they realised the slave was internal...
