Default best part of owning a land rover

Is definitely not the reliability of the rover, but the people who own and work on them. And especially those dedicated members of the rover community like spike, buzz and mike. Without you guys I wouldn't know where to start when my disco starts acting up.

I really just want to say thank you for all your input, advice and jokes. I love my land rover and you guys make it possible to keep it running.

Hope you guys have a kick *** day.

Thanks. It takes noobies, questions, answers, pictures, humor, pros that post, and all the downloads we can find to support a diverse community. Rover ownership makes weekend mechanics out of a lot of owners.

My day has started with a quick look under the hood where I was greeted by two bright green stripes of coolant moved forward on the valley pan.....

As others have quoted, it's never over with a Rover.

Thumbs up

I agree with FlyingZebra34 and caymandrew.

As a new owner of an older Disco, I have learned a lot by reading stickies, browsing the threads, searching for specific topics. I now have the RAVE manual on my iPad to see how the vehicle went together plus an UltraGauge and a NanoCom to understand how it is currently behaving.

Many thanks to the contributors who helped me prevent problems and quickly address problems that do occur. You guys have reduced my stress level so off-roading can be more fun!

-Rob

And thanks to you and many more that I didn't mention. I loved seeing your engine tear down and will probably have to refer to it when my engines time comes.
