welcome snowcat - from south of the border. Up your way quite often with wife, kids, and the dog. Also a landy owner, but Disco 3 & 4. Would love a 90, but 4 kids and a dog demand a bigger motors. A few of us UK members are talking about a get together. be nice to meet up with like minded...

UK based 2.7 diesel land rover discovery 3 - fully loaded, recent trip to scotland, 29MPG. Discovery 4 on same trip 31MPG with 3.0 ltr Diesel 8 speed gearbox.

Stunning job. Given me a few ideas for my disco. I like the picture with the bottle of wine and glass shown. bit of a treat for all the hard work ;-)

Few pics from scotland. Bizarrely, non of my Land rover. We had just had our dog and so our focus was on her, including getting her used to us and the kids. Plus taking her out for lots of walks to the beach and into the mountains. As for shows. I can do the overland show in warwick...

Definitely a fetish for cold places. Storm boris hit when we were in Scotland for xmas and storm Doris has just passed us by. Cold and wet, but still beautiful. Have some pics which will upload when I get home. We picked up a 10 month old St Bernard bitch called noodles on the Thursday...

I am up for a meet and donnington is just along the road from me. Unfortunately I will be in Scotland on 19th for a weeks break in a log cabin. Could do the overland show in Warwickshire

I know, but any fool can be cold. I was toasty. But when I sent that photo to my wife she replied with have I joined Isis? Cheeky moose. Also forgot to add, I recorded the gps route that we drove, so if anyone wants some of the lanes in the Peak District, then let me know. I use motion x...

Hi Folks, I mentioned earlier in the thread that there was a camp coming up in January called Icefest that was being set up by the disco 3 forum. This is my brief update on what went well, what lessons I learned (aka what I got wrong) and a few photos (mostly related to one of the things I got...

Count me in

Hi Rob, Very funny story and difficult for the poor chap to respond to. Whilst the wife's logic is sound, it is second nature for us to continue to tweak the vehicle setup in order to make it a better vehicle overall and one which they will ultimately have a bit more luxury in. A difficult...

Quick follow up. Had my MOT check today and it failed. MOT in the UK is a check which all cars over 4 years old have to undertake in order to prove that they are fit for driving on UK roads, i.e. they are not going to cause major crashes with being unfit to drive. I tend to find that my bill...

Yep that happened to me as well. I kept meaning to email corrie and Mike to let them know that the customs charge was being hiked, something like 8 or 12 pounds being added by customs to handle the charge which is passed on to royal mail. Then I think royal mail added more on top. I think...

some very nice landies on this thread. here is a couple of pics of mine. These were on a trip to spain.

@Joey83 let me know when you fancy a trip to the UK. Would be nice to meet other members and take in some of the beauty that the UK has to offer. Yorkshire and Northumberland are great destinations and I guess you would come into Hull via ferry (assuming you bring your rig). If you fancy a...

@thorstein thanks for sharing. Looked awesome and I love your rig. Shame I cannot speak your language, but you left no doubt that you were enjoying yourselves. Just added Norway to my overlanding destinations list.

very nice indeed. keep the photos coming. cheers John

hi @nickburt. I am UK based. Couple of miles from Alton Towers in the north midlands area. Disco 3 and 4, although the 3 is what I normally drive off road. Group of us go out a few times a year if you fancy tagging along. Last time we did north yorks moors for a weekend and it was...

Land Rover has been making mechanics out of ordinary drivers since 1948, so I guess thats them out :tearsofjoy: Shame though, they have soul and make you smile.

I am sure there would be a few of us with spare seats and would welcome the company from fellow enthusiasts.
