Hi everyone...only got mine on Thursday....a 97 2.5 DSE. Now parked at the top of the drive waiting for a new oil cooler hose and steering damper. Bought it home on back of truck and have only driven up and down the drive in it so far in my ownership. But love it already!!!

If it's the engine oil cooler hose, be prepared to buy a new cooler as it's unlikely you will get the pipe off it:eek:
 
Fitted the new steering damper. Has improved the wandering steering but not completely cured it. Might stick the disco R16 wheels on it to see what happens then!!

Fitted my DAB Radio tuner, only listen to "Team Rock" and "Planet Rock" these days.

What type did you get?? one with the window sticker antenna? How is it? getting frustrating having my phone cut out for a few seconds on my long drive to and from work. I too now only listen to Team Rock, Real XS lost it for me when they rebranded the station from 106.1 Rock Radio
 
It's the Pure Highway and an external mag mount antenna. Had it for a few years now and gets moved from vehicle to vehicle.
Where I reside is very rural and found the stick on windscreen antenna pretty useless up here on the hills. External antenna made a huge improvement.
 
Got the Disco out of the barn. Jacked it up, took 2 wheels off, jacked up the Rangie, took 2 wheels off, went to put the Disco wheels on>>>>>they dont fit. Looks like someone has put some sort of adapter onto the disco and the wheel nut centres are on a larger diameter then the Rangie. Put all the wheels back where they came from, put Disco back in barn then noticed a water on the Rangie. Looks like water pump area. So tyres can go on hold until I sort all the different leaks!!!
 
I didn't realise the cost of VED was an issue to some RR owners. That is just something I get Jeeves to pay for and get on with my day.
Don't know many rich folk driving 2002 models old hat :D
Did Jeeves fit you battery too:D

You got it sorted now ? Or are you still waiting for the pick up :p

He got Parker to fit it.

To be honest I am slightly annoyed at LR. I phoned them t'other day and they haven't got y part yet. I'm going to have to either disconnect the battery until Christmas leave or get someone to take her for a run every now and then. But the daft Alphaline was to blame. This Bosch can go 2 to 3 weeks without use and still strike at first turn.
