Oh that's very kind! I am on a course for 3 months starting next week but once I'm into that I'll drop you a message and see if we can arrange something!

52mm socket for wheel bearings

Stereo/ digital radio is a great shout.

I'd probably come down, and make a weekend of it, (camping) but that's very kind! I'll drop you a message and we shall definitely arrange something!

I'm impressed! What about a mattress is the roof rack not uncomfortable?

Plasters are for girls! You want some sniper tape/ insulation tape/ rag/ black N nasty! ;)

Yesterday we dug 2x 750mm holes in mums drive- less than impressed. Were now going to sink some 5mm thick tube in. And then have a removable upright with some plate spot welded across the center of the removable tube making it hard to angle grind! We prefer the more physical deterrent!

Where do you normally all go? I'm only Wiltshire and on the South Western edge. I'd like to get involved too!

Do you have confidence in the design in high winds?

Big hammer Tapered punches The list is almost endless, but a good quality 3/8 and 1/2 socket set. And 2 good spanner sets is a good start. Grease gun

I drive a Defender 90 which is even less refined than a Discovery! And typically spend 8 or 9 weeks living from a black north face bag and on occasion 7 months! I can fully empathise with the situation and would suggest that that Discovery in the video would be amply hospitable!

I suppose it all depends on the individual. I would consider that Discovery to be luxury and would thoroughly enjoy spending time living in it! As for driving a 101, I think you've got your heart set on it! It's going to be dreadfully unpleasant driving it over distance but that might be a...

I think you could quite easily live out of the back of that Discovery, if you brought a Td5 Discovery it would be far more comfortable for the journey down within budget, and if you did the conversion yourself, you could make it your own. It would come within budget, and if you purchased some...

I know the plain very well, I've walked most of it! I understand all the public rights of way and have an inside knowledge as to what the boys are using and when. Later in the year, either Remembrance weekend or of Christmas leave I shall organise a trip, exploring as much of the plain as we can.

Not much help I'm afraid but my tdci seats are interchangeable with my brothers 2.5NA and the 300's at work- looks like the design hasn't changed much.

@Grem We will advertise further, nearer the time and see if anyone else is intrested in joining us.

I use the Defender as my every day drive too- we shan't do anything silly!
