    Virginia Enchanted Creek Trail and Tunnel - Defender 90 and 110

    Not a lot of Virginia trails and this gem was right under my nose. Pretty easy trail that any Defender should be capable off. Would be more adventurous at night. Well traveled and no pinstriping. Trail is only open Aug 1 to early Jan. Good Creekside camping spot about 1/2 way in.

    Defender first time offroad video

    Tried this trail a month ago and transmission spectacularly blew a gasket before I even got to any wheel spinning. Repaired and returned to the same trail for some redemption. No cheesy music, just TDI snorts and whistles: Unintentionally the 300tdi did 'roll-coal' on the Jeep 4xE a few...

    LR3 Steering wheel upgrade (2011 RRsport wheel)

    This is old hat on the UK forums, but I have never seen reference to it here. My cruise control buttons wore out from too much IDDtool use probably. I found lots of threads about bad switches and some bad clock springs, but no wheel upgrades. LR wanted more $$$ for the cruise controls switch...

    LR3 (Discovery3) ARB Rear Locker installed

    I was un/fortunate enough to follow a LR3 HD around for a day and saw how significant the little differences actually are. I did more difficult trails that day than I have ever done and got stuck on a rock climb and needed a winching (the HD did not). The HD LR3 was slow and steady, where mine...

    How far can you drive an LR3 / Discovery 3 without an alternator?

    Short answer easily 1 hour per 900amp battery with wipers and defrost on (no headlights). Once it shuts off the suspension compressor, you have alteast 45 min of power remaining. After this little swim killed my alternator 3 hours away from home, I decided to give it a try and find out. We...
