    Awesome car, currently restoring mine! Love the idea with a suede headliner, going to do that with my build

      Adds a great touch! The upholsterer suggested it as a no cost upgrade. Great decision!

    My father bought a Discovery 2 Td5 in 1998 (was one of the first D2 in Portugal) and everyday that goes by, i love it even more. Just like you said, I look at it and all the good memories from vacations and trips come to my mind and it's such an amazing and versatile car that I just can't get rid off, no matter what. COngratulations on you're D2, it's really beautiful, well-equiped and in very good shape!

    Great color, I hope you keep the truck in your family for a long time! I have a 2002 SD that was original purchased from somewhere in New York and it has the exact same sunroof setup as your Disco, so maybe our trucks are related! I believe the sunroofs these use are not the factory Land Rover sunroof as it doesn't seem to be prone to the leaking issues so fingers crossed that keeps a few of the issues at bay lol.
    Cheers from New Jersey!

    Hi Alex, your D2 looks great! Thanks for the info. What mix did you use to resort the plastics planning to do them also. And where did you get the oil?

    • @AlexBeras
      @AlexBeras  2 года назад

      Yes of course- Linseed Oil, Vaseline, Aloe. Wipe dry after two hours!

  • @sleepycatpictures1176
    @sleepycatpictures1176 4 года назад +1

    Man, that is a beautiful Disco 2. The cd changer is under the drivers seat in the UK, and it is a pain to get to, but good sound! Plastics drying out is not such a problem in the UK! And the roof liner usually drops because of the leaking sunroofs, but the seals are replaceable. That car is a keeper. Good luck with it!

    • @AlexBeras
      @AlexBeras  4 года назад

      Thank you so much! My mom loves it. She’ll likely keep it forever. The humid Florida climate contributes to the need for a plastic and headliner restoration. Otherwise it’s a beautifully preserved car. Thank you again!

      @@AlexBeras My pleasure. It's a treat to see a non-rusty Disco! It's usually wall to wall rust under most cars over here! It killed my first Disco but the second one I bought is older but better! Comes down to decent metal in the end.

    Hey Alex,Hows the leg room in the drivers seat? I am play with the idea of buying one as an off road toy but I am 6'5, it looked a little cramped for you during this clip..

    • @AlexBeras
      @AlexBeras  3 года назад +1

      It is borderline close! It is a little cramped, as with all Land Rovers from this period, but you can live with it. It’s not friendly to longer legs, but it can be done!!

    Hi Alex Beras you have the beautiful car. I have one Disco II 2000, but it dosen't recognize the control key and I don't know what happen with it, Do you recomend me something about that, please? I don' have the key code
    Thank you

    • @AlexBeras
      @AlexBeras  3 года назад

      with the key fob, it has to be programmed. Before I got it fixed, I manually locked and unlocked it. If you could live with it, and everything works, it won’t interrupt any functional operations.

      It changes daily, but I think anywhere between 10-15K gets you a nice example.

    I was given a blessing of a 2003 discovery with only 126,000 miles. I'm restoring whatever I can find she might need an A pillar y hff e piece across the middle under windshield wiper arms a decal for the back handle. I think I will have to do the headliner it's perfectly clean but says yes.it has everything else. I have DVD screens behind both front seats. I need to look under the drivers seat there iui s a box there. I don't k pw if that's a CD player. I don't bv think so
