Hello to all you obsessed Rover Lovers

Been lurking for a few weeks and looking for solutions to some issues mechanically.
Just purchased a 2007 LR3 HSE with some miles on her. Poor thing was basically a couch sitting in a yard for over 2 years. Love the look and all the features of this model that’s for sure. I’m mechanically inclined and can wrench on just about everything. I will post up some interesting info on repairs that I’ve done.

Needs some love that’s for sure!

Rescued my 1963 2A, and kept it 27 more years. My 2001 D2 was really a rescue as well. 2 1/2 years later I’m still really happy with it.

Rescued several myself. My XD was just basically rotting away on a TX ranch and needed some love, then my 99 was just abandoned to sit and rot due to just a dead alternator and battery. Welcome to the forums
