Modifications

This section details the various modifications that I've made to my Discovery to equip it for my own particular needs. The objective has been to create a vehicle suitable for overland travel, green laning and other off-tarmac driving, whilst still serving as a general utility vehicle and as my daily transport.

Repairs and Maintenance

Generally, I've tended to have this vehicle repaired and maintained by a garage, but every so often it's either convenient or necessary to get my own hands dirty. These are the significant jobs that I've undertaken myself.
