They are not hub winches - too weak and do not stick out enough - they are steps to climb up into the cab. My 101

The Ambulance and Vampyre are different vehicles with different purposes and a completely different look. Ambo is an ambulance and the Vampyre is related to Electronic Warfare/communications. Ambulance...

Of course you can - just bash the kids to make them shut up.

Just disconnect the compressor exhaust pipe and you can here the compressor running when ever it runs.

Having owned two early Disco 1s over a 15 year period I am not sure what these reliability issues you talk about - no different to any other vehicle - though the vehicle you are looking at is now 23 years old so any vehicle of that age will have issues. Any issues that do come up are easy to...

What model disco - there are a few variations - Disco 1, Disco 1 Update, Disco 2, Disco 3, Disco 4, Disco 5 - various engines and gearboxes and suspension layouts.

Why do people assume it is a crazy idea to buy a RR. If you think it is crazy then dont buy it. If you go into a purchase with a negative view you will always have that view and never be happy. Go an see a therapist to get rid of this pessimistic view and then when cured go and buy a RR with...

Associated with the yellow error light you should have a message in the message center - mine just came on as well and it says check brake pads in the message centre. Changed mine yesterday and fault messages gone.

I store my spare fob in a secret spot inside the car. I have had a spare blade cut and it is stored in a magnetic box that sits on top of the chassis under the drivers seat. If I have an issue the I use the spare blade to unlock the emergency door (you do need to ensure this is maintained and...
