Beyond the controls, do you have a choice as to how you install a DII seat, such as back a bit on the rails for a tall driver or very forward on the rails for a short driver? (And then the controls provide finer adjustments from there.) Or, are those suckers fixed?

Surfing the guts of Land Rover's site I came across a peculiar section that seems to insinuate that DIIs have Bluetooth for hands-free calls - there is a section for "Discovery" here: http://www.landrover.com/us/en/lr/owners/bluetooth/overview/ Is that true, or a lie? There's a section where it...

My '96 has them and they're, um, useful even in urban settings. The DII I have my eye on doesn't have 'em. What would you add?

I'm going to ask stupid questions again. Here goes: - So if I get a DII with 18" wheels instead of my DI with 16" wheels, what happens to the 6'6" clearance that just barely gets me into my favorite parking garage? (Is this why they're off-road vehicles, because you can't find anyplace to park...

Thanks.

... in what order. Looking at a Disco I may buy next week. Guy's loan for it is with Chase, so they hold the title document in their innards (whatever form it may be in - electronic or paper). We live in California (they have branches here). In layman's terms what is the procedure? Say the...

There it was, the CAR. Nice lines but still a sneaker. A *hatchback*. How do you think the rotary gearshift will go over? (Shades of the ill-fitting placement of the seat controls on the Discovery.) Not that I'm panning it. I just wouldn't buy it. But vs. other 'crossovers' out there...

Hi all. So I'm looking harder at getting a D2 (have a '96 d1 now), and a clean one that I like unfortunately is not an SE, it's an S7 (basically a 7-seater base model S, and the original buyers opted to get 2 moonroofs). This does not have speakers in the doors, just some basic AM/FM/cassette...

I'm looking at an otherwise clean 2003 D2 ... the moulding looks like this around the side windows in the cargo area, and the little windows on the edges of the top in the cargo area. Wondering how big a deal cost-wise to have all that rubber refitted (if I don't do it but find a capable...

Matte Range Rover near Taverna Tony in Malibu, Calif. This appears to be at least one process to create the look ... it's some fancy 3M wrap applied with a heat gun assisting. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNlwLYc_Ayg I don't think one could *really* achieve this with primer...

Contemplating replacing (no no no!) or adding to the current Land Rover collection, which consists of a DI. Are the Range Rover interiors from 2003 or 2004 ever actually black (not that medium gray). Did any of these puppies ever come with a second moonroof? (How the hell did I get spoiled into...

Actron, I love you. My codes clear like a spring day - P1317

I used to drive a Jeep CJ7. I have a '96 Disco. I want an '03 Disco. I am being talked out of an '03 Disco into an '03-'04 Range Rover HSE. Hence my cost range (not including repairs of course) has gone from $0 to low teen-k's to high teen-k's. My question is what other-brand SUVs would you...

If I don't get an '03-'04 the alternative is keeping the '96. Anyone heard of anyone recovering the seats with black leather and swapping-in black carpets? (If you can even get them for D1s or dye them without atrocity.) Wonder what the cost would run. I'd have the dash and trim stained black...

An '03 Disco I'm looking at was a base model with specific options added. Can anyone tell me how it differs from a stock SE? It has 16" rims not 18", dual moonroof, fold-down jump seats in the back (like an SE7), heated seats and windshield. Don't know about the radio setup. I'm used to an old...

Looking at a DII SE7 with all the rear seating (not really a fan of that but price and color are right). I love the pull-tarp that my DI SE has, and am wondering if there is a built-in or add-on similar thing for the DII SE7's ... also whether it would require removal of those far-rear seats or...

If I'm looking around year 2004, are 2003 and 2005 roughly the same? (And after that.) Any favorites in those years?

I have a Disco I still love. Flirting with idea of trying one of the big Range Rovers though. When in the 00s were the biggest exterior body style changes? (When did the lines get more vertical and less angled at the back?) Any particular year you love? (Anyone love the Sport more?)

Without having to remember how long ago I actually bought the Michelins (stock-y) on my D1, what's the best visual rule of thumb on tread wear that says time to replace? Also wondering what you like as to on-road tires that deliver a great, comfy un-noisy ride ... but maybe are a little beefy...

Hi. So I love my 96 disco with 140k but am looking at possibly buying an LR3 SE (not SE7). Between the model years 2005-2007 did a lot change with these that would make you prefer one over the other? (A better this or that under the hood or for that matter even cabin redesigns.) Oh yeah, and...
