My Disco has done the length of Oz 4 times off-road now - about 100,000km of off-road out of 170,000, and many great tracks such as the Gibb, Strez, Oodnadatta, Savannah way, Plenty and god knows what else. The only times its ever had a problem have been operator error (oops, who needs more than 2 wheel studs on the road to lorella springs). They are enormously competent and comfortable vehicles with amazing capacity to get places. Great to see a group in a run together. One note though….be really careful with the TuffAnt steelies….make sure you torque your nuts every day….I didn’t and that was how I ended up missing three wheel studs in Limmen National Park….
Thank you for sharing this video, it was the best experience we shared with you Shadz, and seriously these 4 wheel drives are made for these kind of trips.
Guys looking for inspiration to give a name to the Grey Disco. Im thinking Iron Hide... what have you named your Disco? Leave a comment below! Dont forget to like and subscribe if you enjoy this content as there’s more to come! Once we hit 200 subscribers I’ll release the next video featuring a Disco Towing vs a 200 Series Landcruiser and Prado. You will be surprised which vehicle performed the best....
Much nicer cars than Land Cruisers. Equally, if not more capable off road. Much better on road. More comfortable and premium interior. Subjectively, they look a lot better as well. You can also get them a fair bit cheaper than an equivalent year Land Cruiser as well (thanks to all the people who constantly bash Land Rover). General servicing will be more expensive because Land Rover parts and mechanics are at the premium price associated with most European cars, but do your research, get a mechanical check done and you can't go wrong. The cheaper 2.7TDV6 also seems to be the more reliable engine so that helps too.
Great video - done a lot of those tracks in my D4 as well - such a beast! Was there in Dec last year and March long weekend - gave Easter a miss because too busy!
Hi Shadz, I am looking to upgrade my tyres and rims and keen to hear you experience and what you have on the Grey Disco. Any other mods needed or did they go straight on…How is it on hwy’s. Etc. Thanks in advance and will subscribe to see more.
Hi Ian, Ive got 18nch Tuff Ant steelies. Their alloys weren’t available at the time but if I were to do it again I would get the alloys they look much better. No mods with the Tuff ants. Highway no real difference
It's a very nice, realistic off-road video😊
The Disco 4 is very good offroad.
Lovely looking D4
Thanks Jerry! They are very unique looking vehicles. Please consider subscribing as Ive got many more videos in the pipeline of the beast in action👍
Where did you get these wind deflectors from?
Great video and beautiful landscapes.
Greetings from Croatia!
Thank you very much!

Sounds like some epic trips there mate!

Awesome content. Do you recommend a D4 over a Land Cruiser?

Glad you enjoyed it! Would greatly appreciate you considering subscribing if you haven’t as Ive got more videos of the beast coming soon...
Such a Leb MashaAllah:))
Hi mate, Great videos :) Im looking to buy a landrover for the family myself. Is there particular D4’s year models to look out for
The best ones with most issues sorted are the last of them MY 14,15 or 16
@@outbackshadz3809 Thanks. Keep the videos coming :) Love to join you boys on a Deer session :)
Hi there, I really enjoyed your video, I am putting together an off road compilation of the Discovery, and wondered if you would like to be included?

Great to see the D4s out where they belong! Was Mt Pinnibar and the Tom Groggin crossing open?
At the time yes they were.
Would be easier to walk
