James Martin seems to be the oracle for all things LR. And a little scary, like the forums headmaster.

The only issue is that he's in Leicester and I'm in Warrington. Love the orange range rover on his home page though.

Stick with the d2 I love mine yes ive had to fix a few problems and still got a few problems left like battery going flat. But compared to the amount of jobs the wife and four kids and a factory full of muppets breaking machines day and night its easy sailing.
I dont get chance to post very often but I do read this forum a lot and it is very informative
and honest

Update: Currentely having a reconditioned engine fitted. I've had the chassis checked for rust, and there's just a tiny amount near the fuel tank, so it's being waxoyled as well.

Hopefully have her back next week.

what did you make out with the place where the engine was done?

ATD · Mar 1, 2015

All fixed and running perfect. Very glad to have stuck by her. Big thanks to Mark Prinold in Stoke on Trent who installed a new rebuilt engine for me.

discodrivercumbria · Mar 1, 2015

That's good then, Glad you like it!
