Reputation, poor maintenance records and some genuine problems contribute to depreciation. Pull need to pick a model/year/engine and then research that combo specifically to sort potential issues. With a few caveats, a well maintained Rover is generally as reliable as a BMW, Merc, etc.

I’ve owned a variety of Rovers over 20 years, RRC’s, D2’s, LR3, RRS and an Evoque. Evoque was a great daily, fun to drive, sharp steering and the ivory interior lovely. Only downside was space…I’d recommend one if you have no kids, if you do the Disco Sport is the direction I’d go. Sport mode...

...of course you can, if you don’t have tires that are too big. SYA = Save ****************. It’s insurance for people with big tires. Limits the drop when air suspension fails. I picked up an LR3 used that needed an alignment, would drop to bump stops on the highway (for perceived safety) thinking I...

The SYA kit is for Rovers running oversized tires. If you have an airbag/compressor malfunction and drop to stock bump stops, you will grind into your tires and you are dead in your tracks. LLAMS ain’t gonna help you then. Anything over a 265 65 18 (if I remember correctly) on an LR3 puts you in...

No armor - but some better suspension options, thanks!

Thanks for the info - still waiting for some rock sliders to be available for the new Titan non-XD's, so far only steps on the market. I would definitely want sliders and at the very least the uprated shocks from the PRO-4X before hit any trails. Still not many sturdy off-road lift options...

No I am not, love Canada and have had many off road adventures in Ontario with Canadian friends. Alberta always looked like a great place for hitting some wide open trails...especially now that I have a full size truck.

No thread hi jacking, just a similar on point concern! I’ve been off road with a stock Xterra back in my Land Rover days in muddy/rocky Canada...very capable vehicle...

Modding the new Titan in non-XD form is not really easy at the moment. No rear locker available, no winch bumpers, no great after market lift for real off road use out there either. Pretty much street queen spacers and the Icon lift which is still an expensive unknown for performance and...

I've done the National Land Rover rally in my old D2 with 3" lift, rear locker and front Tru-Trac...had a blast. Now that I am Rover-free and in a stock Titan, just wondering if anyone here has been involved in the Gone Moab event and could offer feedback. Would love to go for the social aspect...

Fuel economy rises as the axle ratio lowers...

I picked up a 2017 SV 4x4 a few weeks ago and am pleased. Very comfy, easy to drive despite its size - doesn't drive "heavy." There were some complaints about the transmission shifts in 2017's that was rectified in 2018's. I have no issue with the way my 2017 shifts but the 2018's I test drove...

Picked up a 2017 SV 4x4 and wanted the bench seat up front, that meant sacrificing on audio and rear-view capabilities. Just got the new sound system and back-up camera installed. Here the audio bits I used and some pics. - Kenwood DDX8905S Head unit - ALPINE PWES8 8" powered subs x2 - ALPINE...

I'm in...after about a dozen years of Land Rovers, rolling in a 2017 Nissan Titan SV 4x4...stock...for now :)

FOR SALE! (5) Hercules Trail Digger Mud Tires 33x12,50xR15 on black 15" steel wheels...wheels fit Land Rover Discovery 1/Land Rover Defender/Range Rover Classic. Tires are "C" rated. These only have several hundred miles on them, both wheels and tires as good as new. Off road twice in them and...

Yep - good stuff!

...one video from my annual trek to the Bobcaygeon/Minden Ontario area for some great wheeling, beautiful scenery and seeing good friends... Features my 2001 D2, a Jeep Cherokee, a Yukon and an Iltis that gets a bit tippy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCpK8qfacl4

You won't find many (any) that would suggest the spacers over springs and shocks, but I'm not going to get preachy...The job will suck. Everything will be rotted, stuck in place, fused together. I'd pre-buy new hardware, get a spring compressor and to get a little more room, you can use a bottle...

Yep, turning it into an offroad truck and ditching the driveway queen stuff...rocksliders are on the way!

For your "non-expedition equipped Discovery 2"... Great shape, $150 + Shipping. If you have a Greyhound station nearby, it's probably going to be a relatively good option for shipping. I can send pics if you like...
