Finnished up on the sale today. I sold my 1999 D1 for $3000 and tossed in about $2000 worth of extra parts. Glad to be rid of this garbage that Land Rover calls Discovery. My continuous weekend repairs are forever over. BYE, BYE 7MPG. I bought myself a Kawasaki KTR 650 that gets 50-60 MPG. I still offer my plastics services to whoever needs them. The rollers will now be under control of my son Shane. I will still monitor this site and my email for anyone needing to purchase rollers or any other plastics. Glad that little need is over. Good luck all, you'll need it.

 

To be expected from someone out of Lawton.

 

Like a boat, the two happiest days are purchase and parting ways. Write it off as development costs....

 

 

7mpg? wtf?....

 

Nearby forum members, who shall remain unnamed, were sneaking over and siphoning two gallons every other day. On Fridays, they poured it back every third week.

 

Normally I would feel bad when someone must sell their Land Rover due to not being able to maintain it......NORMALLY

 

With you on that one. Kinda sucks to get rid of one, but I cant wrap my head around trading a Disco for a bike an average sized man will wear like a thong, much less a Kawasaki. A guy ditches a Discovery for a dirtbike and tells us we need luck??? Ironic huh?

 

Good riddance. That guy was given all the answers. He was pointed in some good directions. He repeatedly took up peoples time and knowledge then proceeded to ignore some good advice and performed what can only be assumed to be shoddy work. He was full of BS stories and very apparently had little mechanical or electrical work EXPERIENCE... reading wiki articles does not qualify...

He threatened to sell that POS of his numerous times. What got to me the most though was his insistance on handing out advice!!! This chucklehead who was completely unable to maintain and fix his own truck had the ***** to pipe up tell others what to do. When flaws in his advice were highlighted he showed how thin his skin and knowledge truly is.

I will simply say this... " A shoddy worker blames his tools" and in this case an inadequate mind blamed an inanimate object for HIS inability to fix it.

pathetic

 

Wow; I am new here but what I got out of this was that you think all of our vehicles are garbage and we will all need help with them but you will be glad to continue selling parts to us and take our money. I am not so sure your son would appreciate your remarks; at least not in the same post.

I sent a PM just over a week ago about sunroof repair parts but have not heard back yet: no need.
