I wanted to get the BMW front discs and pads changed today but was too wet.
If it dont look like tomorrow will be dry I may come along to watch.
Need to get the brakes done before next month though so I can retax it and sorn the Landy.

I went over for a coffee today, hes fine.
My engine smoke is getting worse so keeping on using it after the tax runs out will be silly. I will take the head off and hope its just a head gasket gone.

Yup. It was a good day.
Got stuck once. Thought it was pretty good considering it is a road standard(ish) Disco. Amazed at how capable it is. Has opened my eyes as to how powerful these actually are!!!!!!!!
Deffo got to get a steering guard, remove my much mangled towbar step and sort new front bumper out.
Would like to block it up a few inches but it won't be until the summer.
Going to do WildTracks on Thursday as I've got friends coming over and want to give them a taste of sore asses

Well a fun day, bit ****ed off with the re-arranged nose, but driver error:doh:
Should have walked the course first and used a little less gas.
Double hill, needed momentum to get over the first and second, but didn't know about the sharp left turn after the hill
Anyway It'll get sorted, but timing could have been better.
A few of the photo's attached + 3 clips (see links below):
