i know its a TD5 but!

My mate who went to Romania in 2015 has just finish painting and rebuilding the bodywork and some frame work. I think his boss and him has made a good job of it

Well done Wayne mate now stop mucking about and sell it to buy a Toyota

 

[ratrace]

he won't as the parts are cheap and its easy to find add-on unlike the LC

His front and rear bumper are cheaper than my front bumper alone

Slightly off topic, but saw one this week on the road, Then new blob shaped discos look vile... nothing like the originals, more like a Range Rover sport

 

[Towpack]

A LR it maybe but that looks like a very thorough and top quality spray job. Nice colour too.

Agree 100% on the new Disco. They're all starting to look the same, RR, RR Evoke (WTF is all that about?), Freelander, and now Disco. I may be turning into a GOG but I just don't get this 'Sport' badging thing on big lumbering 4x4's or even many modern cars. To me, a 'sports' car has 2 doors, a horny coupe/drophead body and performance to match. Just sayin'.

Nice colour, really suits it.

Personally, I detest that colour, but the job looks absolutely first class.

Please let Wayne know he's welcome here anytime Mike, doesn't matter what he arrives in!

Wot a load of shit

Wot a load of shit

Now c'mon Tony, don't sit in the fence, say what you mean…

I too detest the colour but it does look a superb job.

 

[ratrace]

i don't like the colour but the best bit was the whole job inc paint was free so it save wayne a lot of money

 

[Gasmanjc]

Great colour, nice job also.

I actually like the colour and the truck looks very nice IMHO - despite being a LR!

On the subject of the new LR/RR range - have you seen the new RR Velar? It sits between the Evoque and the RR Sport. The top 3 models now all look the same to me - FF RR, RR Sport and Velar will be indistinguishable from 50 yards away.

As you may notice, the Velar is based on the Jaguar F-Pace. Shame they didn't sort out all the issues with it before they launched a new model based on it!!

Hi like the colour waist of a good job on a TD5.

 

[ratrace]

[ratrace]

[StarCruiser]

I love the photo with the oil pan underneath…classic.

Joking aside, that looks like a top job.

 

[ratrace]

thats normal for the old girl

Guess what might get the LC90 back after 4 months in a garage getting a few jobs, not looking forward to the bill, glad i kept the LRD1 so easy to fix
