Default Roofless Disco

One of my accounts for work is the Land Rover dealership here in town. Its cool to go in and look at all the cool stuff around. The last two times I've been in there has been this awesome Discovery.

this thing was really built. I don't think I'd ever do that to mine but doing it to a junker might be fun.

They also always have these in the back too. Love looking at all this stuff.

wow, someone really went custom on that disco. imo, seems kind of counter intuitive. has the capability, but looses the comfort.... oh, well...to each....
i always like to see the camels, though.

I suppose if you think of it like a jeep its not so bad. Here it only rains a handful of times a year. But if it were me I'd want more comfort. That's why I have a Land Rover to begin with. A Cj5 or 7 is is way easier to build and maintain. But like you said...to each his own.

You happen to live next to the best LR dealership in the country. They have even more cool stuff inside.

I thought you changed your name to go all "stealth mode"?

LOL. That's much better.

I could see how having a roofless Disco could be fun. But I think the convenience of rolling up the windows in the dust/rain/snow would outweigh the fun.

It's pretty cool, if the sunroof was as big as the one in my bmw I would be happy and if it didn't make so much racket, have to search and see if their is a fix on here or just some duct tape.

I am surprised they bolted the rack to the roof in the disco, I would be concerned with the bolts ripping the roof unless it is otherwise supported, still looks great love the camel trophys
