Re: Interesting modification

If you like the look of the sport, then buy a sport, dont take away the iconic design of the Discovery. Plus it will cost a bomb and anyone behind you will just think its a sport.

Re: Easy Option with Adblue

So do l to fill the bottle, would not want a funnel stuck out of the Ad blue filler point on my car, then having to lift 10lts up to fill it. If you work out the costings, its 6.36 for a proper container that fits your car in the correct fashion with no risk of spillage.

Re: Dash cam fitted to front & back

Just fitted one l got from Halford's, did not go for the rear one, if they hit me, then that's their fault, however don't we all think its about time that the likes of JLR and others started to have these in as standard, or as an option, like any after market device, you have to have a wire showing ...
