    Military Sales...Anyone familiar? (I want a New 2017 Disco BTW)

    So I got out of my LR3 after 9 years and jumped into a Jeep Grand Cherokee. I love the Jeep but it's not a Land Rover. I really bought it in the end due to the diesel, which I absolutely love and will likely not buy another Gas SUV ever again. That being said I like the new Discovery 2017. I...

    Had to say Goodbye...but it was a good run.

    3 Special Edition Defenders for the 2015 Finale. If you could, which would you choose? Personally the Adventure Wagon in Orange would be my choice rig. Back in 05 when I was in Iraq, I almost had a 06 Disco 3 Diesel on the ship to come home. After some checking it all out, most LRNA dealers...

    06 LR3, High Compressor usage

    Good morning gents, My 06 has about 78K miles on it and had one compressor replaced about 3-4 years ago from the dealer. I have noticed that the compressor runs way more often than it used it, or so at least it seems. It runs every single time I start the vehicle, and seemingly longer than the...
