Good lad
 
Hopefully have the beast soon. Adding the snorkel is a dodgy move though. Was going to have it completely bog standard but now the floodgates are open to the works  |

certainly a possibility, to replace windows with solid panels and remove the rear set of seats, but I'll wait til the little ones have flown the nest
also - the panels would need something .. a sign or logo |

Is a nice looking truck. Owned a csw 90 before. Then the Disco3. Will be strange with no windows in the rear. Sure I'll get used to it.
Any pics of yours? |

Ok, here it is! Part 1 finished and about to go into part 2! Bilstein dampers, Discovery transfer box, Snow cover and lots of other bits and bobs and mods
Absolutely love the truck. It's very aggressive with both accelleration and noise which is exactly what I asked for. Very different to Big green who could be polished to a sparkle and a bit more down to earth. Hardly any smoke due to the top quality PWR Intercooler you can see peeping through the grille married with the remap and turbo boost modulator. Had the JW Speaker lights fitted at the weekend which definitely add to the look of the truck which I believe, is AWESOME!!!!! 
Thanks for following folks, will add more pictures as we go along... So, from this: Click image to enlarge to......
