Hi All,

Well it's now been three weeks since I bought and collected my new beast (from fellow forum member Netsonic Steve), so I thought it about time to introduce her (and myself) and she starts her new journey in her new home with me.

I'm a Land Rover man through and through. I've been running a Td5 Discovery 2 for the last two years - a labour of love - and decided at the start of 2015 to venture in to Range Rover world. So here she is.

Steve has clearly taken incredible care of the Rangey and it's an absolute gem. I'm looking forward to continuing the love! Since collecting her from Brighton, I've driven her back to Scotland and made a couple of changes.

I've collected a set of 20" seven-spoke alloys, added a topical number plate and made a couple of more minor tweaks here and there (dummy shark fin for the mode modern appearance, phone holder etc). Here are some photos.

Nice - look for the thread I started called Perfect Pair - that image and your "perfect pair" would fit in really well

Great colour scheme! Could be my twin

I really like that nice example of the original L322 in the best colour scheme for that year

Yep, great colour combo, mind you I would say that....

Shame it's got the wrong engine....  Pete

to both. I've always liked the TD5 Disco's. Travelling around in circles again.

Little add-on tonight... Fitted a RANGE ROVER silver dash badge. Just had to order a replacement one for the newer models and saw off/sand down where the screw pins were. Dabbed on a little glue at each side to strengthen the adhesion. Think it looks neat.

That looks lovely - I don't normally like green cars but that looks great - I love the wheels and want a set for mine, a credit to you and the former owner.

Glad it has stopped raining/snowing long enough for you to take the pics

Looking great Chris !
Are you going to take it round Glentarkie ??



Need to meet up with Mike ,Geoff , and have a day out! Sure weegaz is kicking around somewhere!!!

Looks nice mate.

Just be aware that the 20" wheels may give you a bit more vibration when at rest in D at traffic lights. It got on my nerves and changed back to 19s..

Just something to be aware of. Ash

....and even 19 inch wheels were not offered from factory on the td6 because of this issue......18's only available from new.

I went to 19's due to the better look, but then don't sit in drive when stationary. 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

David,

Looks really nice - I like it! Will need to have a look at it properly sometime.

Re Glentarkie - not sure about taking the RR up yet. It can be quite tough on the car. Maybe once I get proper tyres on it...

Not sure if I'm keeping the D2 yet - if not that'll still be my off roader, if I do I'll maybe need to use the RR off road but only gently. Think the SLROC Green Road Runs may be a good way to ease it in...

very smart. Epsom is so Land Rover.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who likes the good old tyre black spray. [/i] 405 AB exec seats Baltic and Cirrus
