Tear it up Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Thought I would join in the conversation and introduce myself as I am a new member. I have a 300tdi discovery, less than a week old (to me anyway) and already nearly destroyed it. Anyone know any good sites for breakers and new parts ie winch bumpers, rock sliders, guard kits and lift kits. Used to own a 2 door crr 3.5 v8 bull nosed, bob tailed and converted to a pick up. Used to always be out with a group of mates green laning. Lost my way for a bit but now coming back to join the fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_d Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Welcome This forums For Sale and Wanted sections would be a good place to start looking for bits. If you truly intend to get your toy muddy then the bits you fit don't have to be new or clean. Enjoy Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Henson Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Nice truck Juz - I mean really nice. Shiny - really shiny, shinier than a shiny thing on a shiny day. I bet you polish it - go-on admit it Oh no - wait - the N/S wing corner has a dent - bluddy shed! Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Paul Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Hello! I'm sure you'll find everyone really helpful & knowledgable round 'ere. People even reply to my random questions!! Tis a very tidy truck - got any big plans or just going to get out & use it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juz Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Hello! I'm sure you'll find everyone really helpful & knowledgable round 'ere. People even reply to my random questions!! Tis a very tidy truck - got any big plans or just going to get out & use it? Thanks all. I must say, the pics make her look better than maybe she is, although I do think she's pretty tidy. Bought her off a farmer that had done all the work on her with plans on keeping her then things changed and he sold her, so I'm confident she's in pretty good shape, although she was sat in a barn unused for a year. She has a couple of niggles that need sorting, but basically I have no big plans yet, just going to get out and use her a bit. My girlfriend wants a snorkel (just cos she thinks they look cool), so that will happen shortly. Thanks for the welcome. Juz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godlykepower Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Hi, welcome Juz!! Neat looking vehicle you got there mate. If you DO polish it.....dont admit it to Uncle Les, you will never hear the end of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stravaigin Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Hello, first post here, been lurking for a while so thought I'd better say hello and join in! I use other UK and US forums as kevb, We currently drive 2 90 TD5s and have bits of an old RR in my shed (maybe this winter......). Into long range camping expeditions rather than comps at the mo but wouldn't rule anything out. Just back from a big trip to the US. Waiting on my green 90 getting back and will do a thread on it when I get it together. There are some great projects on here, very impressed and envious. Heres on of mine....

kent594 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Hello! I'm new to this forum but have recently bought myself a freelander TD4 ES estate. I used to have Land Rovers before but went off them when they started getting too expensive for us mere mortals and tried varying Japenese, and one American offering. I'm not really into offroading but, even so, have managed to fit in acouple of weeks up the Alps plus the usual trip to Erg Chebbi via the Atlas. I used to own a three door 1.8 in 2001 so, when I saw my present one advertised, 26k on the clock with all its main dealer stamps in the book, I just had to have it.

samtope Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Our posts resemble personal introductions to a therapy group or some such! Well done Lord Rick, all out of our shells. I can add that the advice I've recieved both current and back dated on this site has been invaluable and accurate so far, as regrds my 1960 series. Now if the bl##dy thing would just stop leaning..
