      Nah.
      They’re all thinking that there is no way our own Discovery 3’s will ever last as long as Christian and Vera’s now.
      So we might as well drive our own vehicles into the ground!
      This D3 will now outlast every other one on the planet, designating all LR Time videos from now on into the History channel!

    A very good Sunday morning from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 This is one mammoth job on sweet Vera’s LR Christian 😊 She’s so lucky that you’ve got the time a patience to strip down completely her Land Rover and most of all record it for us to be entertained and educated as you pull it apart exposing all the bad bits 😂 The frame looked like a Christmas tree at the end lol 😆 Good seeing Robin getting involved also 👍🏻 His blacksmith skills look awesome 👏🏻 Maybe he could start his own UA-cam channel………. 🤔 Or show more with you guys. Well next week can’t come quickly enough for me 🤩 So in the meantime have a lovely weekend as Al hug and kisses for Vera 😍 x

    I love how thoroughly you are rebuilding this Discovery. )) I used to have Discovery 3 until 2022. It was manufactured in 2008 and by 2022 it had 398.000 km milage. I never had any issue with the TDV6. Can you believe it? I had to sell it last year. I miss it so much. 😢 so when I watch your rebuild project it reminds me of what I was going to do with my Discovery. Maybe sometime later I will join the LR community again and undertake similar project.
    Thanks a lot for your guidance and wish you all the best with all your Discoveries ❤

    I like both your comedy and your car restoration skills. A friend had a stainless steel peice of wire, from a wire brush from a angle grinder, in-bed deep into his skin. They couldn't use a magnet to retrieve it. So now he uses a leather protector when using wire brushes on his grinder.

    Great job and having done the same to mine I know exactly what it feels like to do all that work. On the lanoguard front, I sprayed my chassis and underbody after all the preventative painting and rust inhibitors as a final sacrificial layer to be topped up before each winter. If you want to see rust you should see land rovers from Scotland which is why I got mine from much further South in England. Looking forward to the rebuild. 👍😁
