    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    Not arrived yet! I won’t get them fitted until probably late July or August after it’s had an MoT and service. I haven’t got chance until then…

    Rear corner chequer plate?

    Definitely don’t cover it with chequerplate! The rest of the disco looks in good condition. Chequerplate would look awful on it.

    How to: de-ASBO my old V8

    I had a V8 90 CSW and it’s the one Landy I regret selling! As for the sound, don’t try to hide it, enjoy it! A decent exhaust system will help, not a cheap pattern one. And a heavy right foot!😎😎

    l didn't think the TD5 was as prone to rust as the earlier models.

    Would galvanised mud flap brackets help?

    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    I’ve been after some wolf wheel studs on eBay for some time. I found some for a good price but they sold out. The seller emailed me last night to say they were back in stock so I ordered a set this morning. When I checked earlier this evening, they’d sold out again. £39.99 for a full set...

    The oldest is 7 so tried to negotiate. The youngest is 2 and just sprayed the oldest with the hose which diverted negotiations away from money!

    A new set of standard height springs and shocks will transform the ride. Worth doing whilst the chassis is being replaced. I had a set of poly bushes on my disco and I’m looking at doing the same for my 90, although not everyone agrees.

    Discovery Sport Third Party Warrenty

    I can’t recommend any warranty companies. However, from experience, warranty companies will do their utmost to avoid paying out. I had this with an Audi is used to own. The favourite reason not to pay out is the term “sudden and unexpected failure “ of a component or claiming it is a service...

    Less than 10 years and it’s rusting already?!

    Washed it with help from my two daughters. Although I think they got more soapy water on themselves than on the Landy…

    Spare wheel...

    Get a swing away spare wheel carrier. It keeps the spare on the rear but takes the weight off of the back door.

    A rusty galvanised chassis? Does it live by the sea???

    Don’t forget your credit card company if you paid using a credit card.

    Greetings!

    Best pressure washed in warm weather and rust proofing applied once nice and dry. You can get it yourself and do it or pay one of the companies to do it. There are companies that advertise in the Landy magazines or google. You can use lanoguard, waxoyl or dinitrol. All have their pros and cons...

    Greetings!

    The chassis on a disco 1 is not usually a rust issue. The worst areas for rust are the sills, front inner wings, rear arches and boot floor. All benefit from regular treatment.👍
