    • @lockonandfire
      @lockonandfire Год назад +77

      @lptomtom yeah, seemed like Rory touched a nerve for Alex and no-one was really expecting that. I dunno, they have put it in a video at the end of the day so even if there was a little bad blood at the time, I'm guessing they cooled down and cleared the air off camera.

      Makes sense. My Zimmerman slotted rotors all looked the same. No specific sides, my mechanic told me. Funny, now the ones on the right side, which channel brake dust into the center, collect a lot more of it on the wheels...

    • @Tewty11
      @Tewty11 Год назад +2

    I remember when my dad used to have a Discovery 3 when I was a kid, and I thought it was a very nice car indeed. Ours was a 2005 (55-reg) HSE model with the 2.7-litre TDV6 diesel paired with the 6-speed automatic, and it was finished in a dark metallic blue (called Buckingham Blue) with the 'Alpaca' cream leather interior, which looked really nice.
    It was September 2010, and I remember eagerly awaiting the moment when my dad would pull up onto our driveway in it, and when I saw PN55TZH pulling onto our driveway for the first time, I immediately went outside to have a look around it, and I remember being very impressed by what I saw.
    Because ours was an HSE model, it was fully loaded with all the bells and whistles, some of which we’d never had on any car we’d ever owned before, including tri-zone climate control, heated rear seats, rear audio controls, etc, which 10-year-old me thought was very impressive indeed. Plus, its air suspension made it a very comfortable and relaxing car to travel in - as Jeremy Clarkson said in his Discovery 3 review back in Series 5 of Top Gear to describe the ride quality, "it doesn't go over bumps, it just flattens them."
    Even to this day, I consider it to be one of my favourite cars we've had out of all the cars my family has ever owned so far.

      @kc550 Год назад +2

      @Maksimov1337 yeahhh they have a lot of electric gremlins. Mostly due to the horrible sunroof drains and windshield gaskets that allow water in behind the dash and carpets, right where all of the harnesses and many computers are. Fun times! I remember unlocking it one day and the speakers proceeded to blast static at full volume while pulsating the subwoofer. Couldn't turn it off. Had to drive 2 hours back from my camping trip with my earbuds in, drowning it out with music 🫠
