Discovery 3 (LR3) and Discovery 4 (LR4) Registry

New to me LR3

Just purchased a dark grey 2007 LR3. Soon to add to it with proper mods, roof rack, new tires (not sure what ones yet) ARB bumper with winch, LR snorkel and other things as my now whirling mind thinks them up. It needs a few things to make it truly operational...compressor, get rid of the front dark window tint, get rid of the 22 inch stormer rims and put the original ones back on...that sort of thing. Soon to be a fun vehicle to replace the 1973 Pinzgauer 710M.

It's Been Awhile...

Hello Everyone,

It's been a while since I posted anything on this forum, but I have had a few PMs lately for some updated photos. Here are some pictures of my LR4 from the last couple months. Looking forward to keeping up with these forums better in the new year.

Regards, David

Finlayforprez,
Love every detail of your truck. Not wild for the color though.

Thanks! I don't love white, but I picked it for function and durability. I did not want metallic paint and I wanted to hide scratches. The other paint options are nicer, but metallic and harder to touch up. The white with black package does look sharp, but eventually I am camo wrapping.

Actually, I find , that square structure of LR3/4 presents itself best in silver and white.other colors such as grey and black hide the specific shape and distinctiveness of our trucks.If I switch to a LR4 in the future, it will be White , for sure.

Agreed. The shape of the LR4 is so unique compared to other SUVs. Painting it black really does it a disservice.

Not so fast. While the in-between paints like gray, silver, and similar metallic earth tones may have that quality, black, when either shiny waxed or especially dirtied, shows the body shapes even better than white. White does of course show off the window cuts the best though.

Do you have fronts or rears as well ?

 

[MurphyBob]

I have front and rear. No third row.

Black and Bonnatti Grey are the worst colors to hide scratches and I have a LOT of them , from wheeling in NJ Pine Barrens ,VT and Maine.
Does not bother me at all , as I bought a LR3 for the sense of adventure and will use it to the fullest extend , but I have friends with White LR3/4 s and those trail scars are barely visible.

I already have fronts, could settle for a second row.

 

[MurphyBob]

It is a package deal. I don't want to split them up. Sorry about that.
