    Hate to have to do this already..96 Lift Disco 4sale

    This is Stu454's old Disco. I literally bought this nice ride just over a month ago. Unfortunately, my wife's LR3 developed electrical issues and decided it was going to start leaning right as the air bags had decided to check out in what seemed to be the perfect storm of British automotive...

    Opinions on reasonable offer on Rover

    I could use the opinion of you guys on a possible Rover purchase. I checked out a 1990 RRC today and I'm on the fence on what to offer him. It seems to be somewhat mechanically sound outside of the check engine light being on and the pass rear window not working. Has working A/C. You can hear...

    1999 Discovery 1

    Have been considering letting my Disco go. We have an Lr3 now so, I'd really like to do some things to it and maybe get a Baja bug on the side to rip on for kicks. It's a good old car and I've put 12k miles on it this year alone. Never let's me down. Just a heads up. I wrote some pretty...

    Looking turn up the exhaust sound on my D1 V8

    I'm looking to get a more aggressive sound out of my D1. Upon inspection of my undercarriage last week I notice my exhaust is slightly pinched in the turn going to the rear muffler. Since I'm worried this may be causing power loss, I've decided to do something about it, but if I'm going to work...

    I have an 07 LR3 SE V8. I recently drove it 6 hours to Pennsylvania from my hometown of Louisville and back.

    Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway

    We took another day adventure to Daniel Boone country yesterday. This time we decided to hit the "Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway". The Byway is in the same region that a lot of the "KAT" is. Although, the DBBB is more suited for a day trip because it is a lot shorter of a trail than the KAT. <br...

    Let start off by saying some of you may burn me for this post but, I feel it's important to tell this story, so that people that have a Rover or are in the market for their first don't get screwed the way I did. Earlier this year I began searching for my first Rover. My main quest was to find...

    Panhard Bushings

    Unfortunately, my D1 needs panhard bushings. No local parts store seems to carry them leaving the only option to order them. Before I pull the trigger I was curious if there is possibly bushings the big auto part chain stores carry for another vehicle that would fit the Discovery 1?

    So, today I was coming home from work and my Discovery started making a rattle/knocking noise from the front of the engine. I can't really figure out where exactly it is coming from. It doesn't knock with every rpm rev but, with most it does. Seems to be worse as the RPMs drop rather than...

    I have a 99 D1 SD V8 155k miles. I got the car about 3 months ago. Has been a great vehicle surprisingly. I drive it 50 miles a day with no issue.
