    the perfect discovery

    I tow a caravan, in a standard auto. Not had any issues with power. Perhaps your truck is just shagged.

    the perfect discovery

    The perfect Discovery is a 100% original and 100% working order Discovery. I would stretch to a bluetooth module for the standard headunit, a set of top quality AT tires and maybe a stage 1 remap. Just like mine will be once I've got the remap.

    To export vehicles to the USA, they have to be over 25 years old, and be numbers matching. The Defender was sold in such small numbers in America that companies in the UK and America, as well as individuals are exporting LRs to America, they prefer original engined 200tdis or very early 300s...

    Numbers matching Landys can sell for ridiculous amounts of money in the states. I almost sold my 90 that I struggled to sell for £4k in the UK for £10k to a guy in the states, but because I'd swapped the engine and didn't have the original engine anymore, it fell through.

    I fitted a Disco 200tdi. The only differences were the oil hoses, I used the hoses off the 19J. A new rad/cooler. An electric fan. And the exhaust manifold. Oh yeah and a plate needed bolting to the left side of the engine for the filter housing. I got everything second hand, cost me 1k. That...

    Not only that but then you would still have an inferior engine in your truck. Unless your exporting to the USA, that makes no sense.

    Yes, given that logic all classic cars should be scrapped now.

    So what your saying is you'd have no engine. Is that financially sensible?

    Just fitted my GROM bluetooth module. Works great, highly recommended if you have the standard Alpine 1.5 din cassette deck with CD changer. You do lose your CD changer though, but who listens to CDs in 2020? Paul

    Fixed back door. The handle was stuck. Fixed the rear windscreen wiper (I hit it with a hammer, gently). My local LR guy nanocommed my SLS remote and fixed my RF module, so now my key fob works. He is also doing something with the left side track rod end.

    Disco 2 Off road capable phone holder

    So, I bought a magnetic phone thingy yesterday, the same as I put in the wife BMW. Problem is, it's fine on.road, but the slightest bump and the phone falls off. What holders are people using? Preferably not a windscreen one, too far away. Paul
