So I'm not aware of any website that has published part numbers for the newer land rovers i.e. the ones that don't fall into the "classic" category.
But I've found a quirky way into the Jaguar Land Rover Classic parts website.
From what I've seen you cant access any new LR vehicles through the normal classic parts website, but if you have any part number for the vehicle you're looking for, you just pop the number into google and one of the first hits will be from the Land Rover Classic parts website - but for a non classic vehicle
If you do a search to find a generic part number for the vehicle you're looking for e.g. 2020 Discovery sport
I looked for a bumper on ebay and got this part number LR128932
you then get this Link
Now depending on which vehicle you're looking at you either scroll to the bottom and click the vehicle type OR
If you scroll to the top of the page and click the "Back" you can get back to the top of the parts index for the vehicle.
Search Genuine Land Rover Discovery Sport 2015 > (l550) Parts | Jaguar Land Rover Classic Parts
another example is L461 Range Rover sport 2023

Just a recommendation for central ish Scotland, I'm not related or connected with the supplier, just had a good experience.
https://www.stainless-creations.co.uk/
Really nice customer contact, booked the vehicle in (2 week wait) and had a full exhaust made and installed within a day.
These guys don't just make new, they will repair or just change sections of a damaged exhaust, amongst other machanic-ing.

Don't place value on the extra's. Use them as a bargaining chip - ie what can be used or sold on to reduce cost of owning vehicle
In the Project Jay (your is a Romulus, not a Jay) Club, we look at every Jay having worth as a collectors vehicle, so price on how much it will cost to return to standard or approaching standard. This becoming the same with Romulii.
Take a base, well serviced vehicle as being 3K, then reduce by what needs doing - for example sills or inner wings, then reduce by what can't easily be done to return to standard - for example a camel cut
A Romulus with flaky sills is going to be nearer 2k than 3k as a repair isn't just patches
The interior needs to be clean, tidy and preferably not eaten by a dog. If bits have been removed, put them back on.
You have three markets
Beat it to death 'off road' - they won't pay for a tidy vehicle, so just put you op picture up, say it's got loads of 'Off Road preparation and hope to get 1.5k
The huge market that need a decent tow vehicle/family barge/4x4/room for kids - they will be impressed by cleanliness, lots of good pictures and a decent service record. 2.5K is achievable as this vehicle needs to last
The collector - weird lot, may pay 3k if it's really tidy, may not even offer 500quid
I was chatting to a chap last Saturday Morning (03.00) who is looking for a decent solid 300 and he has budgeted 3K for the buy, with 6 for the tidy, respray and a few goodies. He's looking for 10 years plus form the motor.
Good advice.

Hi folks, D2 Td5 - I've got a pin hole in one of the steel pipes that sits below the fan/radiator, I've ordered a new part but I want to do a repair as I'll change the pipe out when I do the chassis later in the year, initial thoughts were to to use an appoxy with some kind of patch material, Dad recommended some kind of tin skin patch outer held by jubilee clips, especially as araldite type material get soft ~80 degrees.
Anyone got any recommendations/advice, needs to be good to hold some pressure.

In around 2002 LR changed the door locks from i think it is 8 pin locks to 14 pin locks, i.e. they made the door lock barrels longer to accommodate the same key that was used in the ignition lock, which made the door barrels a little more resistant to breaking and entering... so obviously the alloy handles are built for the later spec locks.
I've had a good look about and cant find any individual part numbers for the bits you need, Exmore obviously assume you're already upgrading a later style door lock so you can just swap these parts over, I think you might have to bite the bullet and order some standard (late type) door handles, to use the parts from them, you could also pop a "wanted" add in the forum to see if anyone had any old ones going.

hmmm they salt the roads like they salt the fish and chips up here.
As interesting as my wee 3 year break living in Englanshire was, my 90 thanked me more, they don't salt half as much.

Has this truck been in the sea? Or is it a common issue?

The price of older disco's seems to be creeping up, that is the first 200tdi first series. When I bought my Romulus facelift 300tdi finding one with a decent MOT and on the road wasn't so easy, there seems to be few on the road these days, most 300tdi's I could fine where modified in some way or another with prices from 1500 - 3000+ dependent on the kit they had on. I finally found a GS (basic) spec unmolested for 2k, with a dubious 11 months MOT.
Off the road trucks seem to bottom out at 500 which equated to getting an engine and gearbox, but I only got that price from asking about and visiting a few garages with old trucks sat outside them.
so "in my opinion" any truck with an MOT its going to be 1000+ dependent on how rough it is. MOT less... down to 500 dependant on what needs done to get it back on the road, if it needs a stack of welding then its as good as the engine and gearbox, but if it doesn't need welded then that makes it more valuable as its much easier to get it back on the road.

I ran my 200tdi on OAT for quite a few years, but wasn't all that convinced with it, especially after doing the head gasket a few times in relative succession I was gobsmacked to see how the blank water holes had corroded, so I swapped back to Glycol although I've not had the head off to see if its any better, I feel I've had super rock solid coolant temps even when I seriously maxed out when towing some heavy stuff up some big hills. 200tdi would have been spec'd with Glycol from the begging, and td5's would have been OAT - I'd say stick to the closest you can for what the engine was initially designed for.

Can China make anything completely original?
Why make new when you can save a heap of cash just copying what someone had done already.

So looking at the actual swivel it is standard across :
Defender 2007-2016 - All models - Quantity Required - 2
Defender 1983-2006 - Models from VIN LA930456, (axle) 61L to 63S & 10M to 17M - Quantity Required - 2
Discovery 1 - All non ABS models - Quantity Required - 2
Range Rover Classic - All non ABS models VIN CA on - Quantity Required - 2So in other words you can probably fit the swivel ball (the chalice or whatever you want to call it) to any D1/RRC/Defender as long as it doesn't have ABS.
I had it in my head that there was a difference between the swivel ball from raliko to roller bearing type... it could be totally dreamed up mind, I dont have a later one to hand to compare.
-
So I've puzzled over this myself a few times, from factory "generally" 10 spline = Raliko bush type... and 24 spline = roller bearing type, except late RRC's 😝
I have a suspicion that you will be able to fit 10 spline half shaft, CV, Stub axle and Hub to a later roller bearing type assembly, but I've not tried it.

I've heard of some folk who run 110's at 60psi rear/ 40psi front!
This is what Land Rover recommend (for the rear)

Well as I agree with the above, I have just snapped a half shaft... when I did the first re-build on my 90 in 2009 the half shafts are the only thing I didn't change in the transmission, I know for a fact they where abused before I had the truck, but they looked good so I re-used. 15+ years isn't too bad, I did install my ATB just over a year ago in the front and I did wonder if this accelerated the issue, but I'll never know.
Something I have invested in recently is a Dye penetration crack testing kit, I tested the other front shaft that didnt break, which looked worn but not twisted and it didnt show any cracks, but I changed it out anyways. I've now got 10 spline Britpart shaft and CV's in the front axle now and to be fair they looked not to rough.
I've got Ashcroft HD shafts in the back with the ATB so not too worried about those.

I have fitted the 1.3 to mine with the 4.6 auto, as I found the 1.2 too high and the 1.4 a little low. I haven't had it on the road yet but had done plenty of kms with the other ratios before I made the decision. I am running 285/65/18 which are around 32"
@Paul C I'd be interested to get some feedback on your driving experience of the 1.3 once you're up and running.

You haven’t got a photo of the gearbox mounts have you @Maverik ? Without crawling around underneath the truck . As my chassis is a 200tdi with td5 rad mounts and rear end , as I wanted to keep the engine in the 200tdi position and was thinking of swapping to 300tdi mounts for the gearbox .

Anything but standard 200tdi mounts... 300tdi seem to be a good compromise between size over hardness, I converted the standard 200tdi gearbox mounts to the later square type and even that made a hell of a difference. I'd defo consider td5 first.
-
You've also got the option of 1.3... ashcroft do the this as a gearing option, I had half intended to do it on my manual 200tdi, as I think it would compliment it more than a 1.4 for all around "use".
But Auto's are a little different but worth considering.

struggling to find part number for elderly neighbour

See if you can find a part number for the other side that will allow you to narrow in what you're looking for.
