NEW! Pictures! I just got the Rover washed and waxed, so when's a better time to take some photos? Enjoy:

I bought the Rover used almost 2 years ago with about 83,000 miles. As you can see, it's pretty much stock. I haven't done much to the car, since I just graduated from college (UC Davis - and, yes, I was at the UCD-$tanfurd game!). Here's what I have replaced, fixed, or added so far:

- K&N Air Filter 332737

- Land Rover Genuine Rear Lamp Guards RTC9503AA

- Bilstein B460243 and BE52779 shocks

- Dunlop Rover A/T P245/70R16 tires

- Safety Recall Action B156 (fuel tank replacement)

- New keyless entry remote

In the future , the list includes, in no particular order:

- Tinted windows

- Rear bumper lamp guards?

- Brush or A-frame bar with lights

- Replace rusted exhaust (Borla?)

I have small cracks in the window seals of the rear door and rear windows. Has anyone had these repaired? What's the damage?

If you have any suggestions or advice, please sign the guestbook or email me.

late,
Mike

my suggestion is to shave off the plastic and the fog lights so its flush with your front bumper......take off the plastic peices below the doors it looks better (thats just an opinion)

if you're plannin on takin her off road, go to landroversonly.com. and a big no to the brush guard and light guards, they can mess your truck up real bad in the brush if you catch the light guards on somethin or get pulled out by the brush guard.
