Had an hour to kill earlier today, so I tossed together this to show some parts of the exterior of the car.
Will probably to a better tour soon, but there is so many things that I would like to change or upgrade. So the "timing" is never right so show off the "finished" build.
Any questions? Fire at me!
Thanks for watching,
K
Great video! I would love to see what your sleeping and living setup looks like on the inside, if it isnt too personal. Most people who overland longterm sleep in a rooftent so your setup would be interesting.
Will do! But I usually don’t show it too much because I want to redo it, and it’s also usually full of stuff 😅
@@kasperhoglund looking forward to it! Everything you do looks so efficient and practical
Nice build! Hope the electronix work mostly :)
👍👍👍
👍☺️
The best looking D4 I've come across hands down. The balance between the retro look and the modern parts are balanced perfectly 🤌
Dreaming about doing a similar build for overlanding and work in the near future, but will probably have to settle for the D3 for economical reasons (and I have a strong dislike of start buttons/ electronic key systems).
Yeah there is a bunch of electrical stuff in this that I really would like to not have. A dumbed down and simplified D4 would be really cool to make. But so many laws regarding car modifications here in Norway that it’s a hassle. Even my car is in the “grey” 😅
Thanks for the compliment! Really want to have it look like a planned build, and not just random pieces thrown together!
Ha, you speak about restrictions in Norway, and I have no clue what this is about. But coming from Germany, I think it can not ne worse in Norway 💁 … I love to listen to your little stories, and again from me as well, mentioned before by others: It is an amazing style of your car. 👍
Hey Kasper, could you please provide the link to the exterior side rack?
Great video. Definitely keen to see the interior - sleeping setup, cooking and power/battery systems. Cheers!
Cheers! Talking a bit more about gear in the newest one. But the battery setup needs a massive upgrade to keep up with editing on the go 😅
"...I use those words instead of snorkel to avoid stupid people." Hilarious.
I miss the old videos on the carpentry portion - would be cool to see what you come up with to make the inside more a effective for living. I know you said that you want to build a hatch though the roof to climb into the tent - that is also another great idea - kind of like a mini pull down ladder to climb up from inside the living quarters to the pop up - I do like the idea of turning the bottom quarters of into an office space and the pop up into a rest space since there is not much room in the back of the discovery currently for you to sit up fully as Imagine you are about 6 foot or so. Same here. I place to get an LR4 HSE in the States here.
I want to redo the part inside! So would definitely film everything then!
your videos and their calming vibes are a blessing! Building a RRC myself at the moment and its highly inspirational seeing your field tested disco! The compactness of a roof tent-less suv is just so intriguing. Trying out to switch to a hammock inside the car to safe space after I've seen a guy do it in his defender. Keep up the awesome work my man
Thanks man! I do LOVE the fact that everything is secured inside the car. Depends on the weather where you travel obviously. But being ble to stay safe and sound in the bed, with crazy storms outside during Norwegian winters.. It just makes life so much easier than the old style roof tent.
For weekend getaways its really nice, but not as a full time home!
@@kasperhoglund that's so true, spent my first night high up in the Swiss alps cuddled up with my dachshund and a diesel heater running on the roof in a small snowstorm and it was so cozy. A big Van feels so out of place imo. Would love to take it to Norway one day and get that insane experience of the landscape and nature you have up there! If my girlfriend wasnt there I would be living in it full time already haha.
I’m currently in the process of upgrading my LR4 and your set up looks amazing! S/o to youtube for recommending me your video! Can I get the name of the brand of your roof rack? Thank you and stay safe dude
It’s from Prospeed Uk👍🙏
Incredible build - really interested to see if you do a pop top! I’m looking at building a rig just like this 👌
Thanks Charlie!
Have you looked into xlifter for your discovery
Yeah! I actually want to go away from the air suspension in the future to have “less things” that can cause issues. But as of now I have it lifted on rods and just keep it at that heigh no avoid messing to much around with the system.
For leveling I usually just park with a wheel on top of a rock or something (and I’m not really sensitive about sleeping on an angle hah)
Hi, what brand of boxes do you have on the sides of the car? Thank you
Cheap no name boxes. Bought at a norwegian store, But often see them labled as other brands on eBay or at hardware stores in other countries
I really love the white roof! What does your battery/power setup look like for charging cameras, notebooks and all?
I think yours is a HSE Lux, which is a notch above HSE.
Nah, HSE with the Nordic climate package 🤌 Lux has a additional little badge as well as some other bits
Hello. I am also a professional Photographer from Romania and i also filmming my car, an Yeti 4x4 bought for a Overlanding Project. You have a new subscriber now, i really like your video, i love your car, but is so expensive for me right now. Cheers and good luck !!!
Should chop the rear so it's like pik up and get hot oil gladiator in there then go to Iceland get extreme lift kit and you have a beast you can drive to the North Pole 😊
Too much laws on Norway regarding modifying cars to even think about that 😂
@@kasperhoglund inside tour to see how you sleep inside cold temps be cool or get a hilux and put a big lift kit on it be cool
@@alextop1850 will show more! But staying with land rovers 🤝
@@kasperhoglund ua-cam.com/video/9LS3BBdvnw8/v-deo.html
What was it recorded with? Very good quality.
A compact and small OM EM5 🤝
holy shit. i'm amped. I'm excited. we can do this. WE ARE NOT GOING BACK!!!
great inspiration! I'm currently in between LR4 and Raptor for my first overland build, I really like the look of LR4 but they keep saying it's not reliable. but then I watch content like this one and get confused instantly. have you had any reliability issues? if you were to build a new rig today, which vehicle would you choose?
Hei. Kjempe informativ video. Har nettopp kjøpt en lr4 og så er jeg usikker på hvilke 18" felger som passer pga bremser. Har du info på felgene du har kjøpt?
What is the company that makes the side racks?
MP off-road 🤝
Great upload as always. When you planning on creating the pop top?
I'd do it right away if I had time and money, but there's a high milage eying rocking under here that might deserve some love before anything big is done. Its been really solid, so I'd be foolish not to show my appreciation back, hah!
@@kasperhoglund yeah wise words! theres always something essential that needs doing before the fun stuff! 😤🤣
Great video. I couldn’t find a. Video of your camper bed and inside build?
My Bucket with wheels will do fine. VW Fox 1.2L :D
Hi Kaspar
Wow, you have done the most amazing job !! CONGRATS
Can you give me some detail on the paint that you used to do wheel arches/bumpers etc
Best wishes
Tom
Thanks! Its Raptor bedliner on the arches and bumpers in the standard black🙏
Did they change they style? I can't find an LR4 that looks like this on the web site.
Why to do you have a rearview mirror?
I use the rear camera and the side mirrors 👍
I was waiting for this video! Your d4 is inspiration for me. I always loved the defender so I buy one recently and make him cool for traveling but I hesitate so much between d4. And itch time I see one of your video I am regretting my choice. Because the confort of driving you have, it’s difficult to have with the defender. At least without putting 100k€ on it.
Keep going with those kind of video you make it great! Love it so much 💪🏼🤌
Really cool to hear! I did also consider the defender when I bought this. But as you say, "stock" its not as comfy haha! But my dad has a 110 Puma that ive taken on some trips. And its not as bad as a lot of people say. The most exhausting thing in there for me is the sound. Because you don't really think about how loud it is. So long drives with a really good head set is actually making defender life easier!
@@kasperhoglund yes exactly! I have the 200 tdi and it’s worth than the puma. Even with the good sound deadening it’s loud. So the best I can do it’s not driving too fast. So I think mi next car for traveling gonna be the d4, for those reasons.
Beautiful build truck. a pop top roof is the best there is. In Denmark they sell these in the begin with the discovery 3, because the cheaper road tax. But I don't know if you could use it for actually sleeping under. Or that it was only built for standing height. I myself always sleep in my Lr 3 just like you. But I only do that during holidays and not constantly like you do.
Yeah, I’ve seen the danish version pop up for sale every now and then. So it’s a good confirmation that it’s doable at least!
Hey man ive got to know how you wired your roof spot lights.
so what about wheels and diagnostic outdoor? :)
How reliable is the discovery 4?
All depends on how it’s been kept. I’ve driven mine 270 000 km without any real issues. But if you don’t look after it, you might find it a bit of a hassle to do all of the “maintenance” that has pooled up at the same time
@@kasperhoglund That's what i wanted to hear, im considering buying one for me and my gf to go overland with, and i do love the astetics of the discovery 4, my only conceran is to not be a money sink, like one of those jeeps, etc.
i like your discovery, goodluck!
Set up is super sik
Thanks Jay🤝
I really like the improvements you've made - your LR4 looks incredible. I've watched most of your videos you've made on your LR4. You're a talent! Great videos and awesome upgrades. I've recently decided to keep my 2015 HSE LR4 and upgrade it for touring and you have given me plenty of inspiration. It's just too good to part ways with. Did you leave the rear seats in or remove them to model your living arrangements?
Thanks! Its actually registered as a work van, so it has a dividing wall and only two seats from new 🤝
What an amazing build, love it and the attention to detail.
Would I be correct in saying that the bed liner is similar to the raptor paint you can get to day,?
Thanks! Bedliner is the generic term. It’s in fact Raptor bedliner that I’ve used!🤝
The sweeet ride definitely deserved a fully focused video, well done man! Once again simple recipe of detailing the setup but your way makes the video feel 30seconds Bigup
Thanks man 🤝☺️
One of the things I have found is that it takes a few trips to finesse your equipment and fit out and it's too easy to just get the wallet out and buy everything from the overlanding catalogue. Best to wait and purchase or make stuff as you need it rather than have a lot of equipment you never use but looks great 👍 loving following you on your journey and also your rebuild.😎
yeah, pouring it into the maintenance will be beneficial in the long run!🤝
Thanks Simon! Looking forward to seeing your rebuild back on the road.
Fantastic video and great work on your build. Overall I love it but particularly love the front lights, both what you did with the stock ones plus the extras. Great work!
Thanks 🙏 great to hear that I’m not the only one liking the round look!
Whats the extra antenna on the side of the bonet?
Not sure if I missed, but is there a camera instead of cabin rear view mirror? Do you get stopped for not having an actual window with an actual mirror? Love the Landy btw!
Thanks! It’s registered as a two seater commercial van. So no law saying it needs the rear window. I do have a live camera at the rear though 👍
@@kasperhoglund Thats smart!! Makes sense!
“And all the aftermarket ones like … like shit 😐” 😂😂😂
🫡 gotta be honest haha
Dream rig
Cheers🤝
Love your videos!
Those vents you have for the rear windows, is that something you just jam between the top of the window and the door? Can you buy those someplace?
Thanks! Yes exactly. They’re firm Nakatanenga 🤝
Awesome, thanks!🙌🏻
Amazing as always. With your experience with the LR4, how do you detail your engine? Pressure washer? Anything to think about? Im sceptical on how to clean mine
After an insident when I cleaned my old Alfa engine I’m a bit careful. Usefully just vibe everything down often so it doesn’t build up.
Finishing with rubber glaze or something similar to keep it shiny in there🙏 but it’s been a few thousand km since the last time. And oh, whenever I take something apart for maintenance or replacing I always clean the part before they go back in 🤝
@@kasperhoglund I see. Would be nice to have more of your insight on maintenance. For example rust protection. There are hundreds of opinions online on what to use etc.
Man you did a brilliant job on it, fair play.
Cheers for that!🤝
Awesome Disco 4, would have loved a look inside :)
A bit on the inside in one of the videos before this. But need to do a proper one.. only down side is I’m not really happy with the inside and would love to re-do that!
Another Masterpiece of video Kasper!
May I know how did you mount tightly the two rubber clamps for your shovels onto the window panels? Thanks
Thanks! They have a bolt going trough them. Bolted directly trough the metal of the side racks 👍
@@kasperhoglund Thanks Kasper!
I do have the rack too, but did you drill a hole yourself through the rack for secure with the clamp? or you add a washer or something?My rack comes with metal squares only.
@@gordonyip8415 drilled a hole for the bolts👍
I am so glad to finally see an in depth video of your setup! Thank you
Going deeper 🤝 but just wanted to start going a bit more into detail!
Beautiful disco. Very tastefully modified.
Thanks 🤝
The round driving lights and steelies looks top notch!
Appreciate that🤌
A very nice build
Have you shown how you modified the LED on the headlight?
Not really! I think I have a Reel on insta showing bits of it somewhere
Superb video as always, loving the frequent uploads now Kasper, I am currently on holiday in Switzerland - I am Irish and wish I had my Discovery 4 with me on this trip, but a Mini Cooper will have to do...
to small tires
good job man and good travel car
Cheers 🙏
Thank you for sharing and honest review. Good looking rig!
A very nice looking car!
Cheers!
at this point just seems like Land Rover ad
So far the most beautiful d4 ever~ !!!
First 😂
🤌🏼
@kasperhoglund had to be done, never been this early to a video before😂, your build is inspiring, gave me many ideas for mine, keep doing what you're doing, from Scotland!
@@k29_lr4 cheers lad! Hoping to make my way over there with the discovery one day🤝
@kasperhoglund fantastic! If you need a guide let me know 🤟
@@k29_lr4 I’ll definitely need some local guidance hah! Also want to go over there to meet up with a bigger LR community.
The landscapes is pretty similar to some parts of Norway. And grey weather doesn’t really bother us Norwegians 🤌😂
I have owned 2 Range Rover HSEs (north America), Discovery 1, LR3 (my favourite when I had kids and had to haul around teams and scout troops as it is a 7 seater) and now a Range Rover Vogue TDS 2010 which I love (so does Jeremy Clarkson!) and a Range Rover Vogue 2019 for city driving. YES I am a masochist but love these old Landys! My son and I just bought 3 Defender 110's from Spain that we are rebuilding. I grew up with them in the Caribbean and they are part of my DNA. Love em or hate em but usually Landy owners have both emotions at the same time. TY Kasper for going through the build I found it very informative.
That’s great! We had a freelander 2 and a discovery 2 when I grew up. Also a 7 seater. So I loved sitting it the third row with the middle seats down with bags and storage when we did long drives haha!
Later had a LR3 and a 110 puma join the family before I bought my LR4.
Now I have the 109 Series 3 and my dad kept the 110 + a Discovery Sport.
Kinda sticks with you this brand 🤣 or otherwise
Thanks for the walk round Kasper. Love the custom touches and homages to the the Camel Trophy etc
Cheers! Yeah, I really like the way it’s actually looking modern but still has a nice hint of the LR history to it as well!
Smart build dude. Well done 👊
do they sell LR4 diesel in the states?
No, EU market 🤝
@@kasperhoglund thanks mate. Lookin to make the leap eventually myself soon. Just lost my job and thinkin to get back into photography.
Love your content!
Very impressive Kasper. Since breaking my glass roof, I'm also looking at replacing it with a single sheet of Aluminium. Do you have any video's of that process and what about the weight reduction. That glass roof is heavy.
I actually thought I’d save a bunch of weight my self. But turns out a 3mm sheet of alu is only a tad lighter 🤷🏽♂️
@@kasperhoglund hah I see, that's pretty thick sheeting. What sealant did you use to stick it too the roof?
@@fredbrackely same as the guy replacing my windshield used to glue that down 🤝😎 don’t know really hah
非常棒的改装案例感谢分享❤
😂 the most important bit inside see bed setup didn't show .?? Wtf 😅
