Default I truly wish

Having owned a TR-6 for many years, I appreciated the exotic feel and culture of British automobiles. Thankfully, the Roadster factory backed up and supported that desire. Is it any wonder, then, that I truly wish that "said" company would pick up manufacturing and replacement of most the parts on a Discovery 1 or 2? Carpet and seat replacement would be very helpful, and refresh most of our valued rigs.

I'm a big British car fan as well. Here's my XK8 next to my friend's Defender.



I imagine parts like that will become more available when the Discovery gets closer in age to the TR6. In my car and most others, the interior is great. I'm sure you could find a good donor car. I haven't seen a new carpet set for Discos but I have seen new seat covers.

I've tried Rimmer.TR-6 at the time. But I found RF in Pennsylvania more committed and knowledgeable . But you're right, I might have to shop around Rimmer.
