Who said germans don't have a sense of humour? You guys are hilarious! Keep up the great work and videos coming. Love from Australia from a recovering LR addict.
Yeah, they are trying. That joke,about The Police man asking why his wife is in such a state ! With him explaining her various accidents ! I think that most German people have, a tongue in cheek humour. Where, actually. The joke is, how casual they are about some horrendous crime ! Or perhaps behaving in an unacceptable way in a blundering , clumsy way yet still determined in their determination to reach a goal .
I just took my 17 year old Discovery 3 down to the fields to check a newly planted crop. A guy who lives in our village is a recently retired LR Director (only 50 something years old!). I told him that when I get home, I will watch this video and I will forward it to him. I am sure he going to enjoy it. He then said that the Discovery 3 was a huge landmark for LR, so good that they should still be making that same vehicle today. Which makes me smile that he arrived at the field in a one year old Defender! Anyway guys, keep up the good work. You are doing it all right! I especially love the idea of the frame and jockey wheels to mount the body on work on the underside, without occupying your 2 post lift. PS, IMO every Discover, RRS and RR should use a maximum of 18” rims for a more comfortable, less bumpy ride on badly maintained roads.
Disco 3 was their big transition from Disco 2 "rock crawler" to "mall crawler". Too bad they didn't keep the Defender Disco2 suspension. Also, it appears that they made a lot of complicated "enhancements" to the vehicle leading to multiple failures (as well documented by LRTIME).
Yes I almost agree with you lol I have a 4.2 Supercharged Overfinch Range Rover it was running 285-35ZR-22's and the ride was frankly bloody awful ! I got a secondhand set of Pirelli Scorpion M+S 255-55's on 19" rims and it transformed the ride completely. I don't do crazy speeds these days as I'm getting too old so the "Lesser" grip tyres are no problem and on wet grass I can actually get where I want to go!
Big rims and rubber band tyres are all about show. The ride is horrible, they buckle easily, the vehicle can’t use the (allegedly better) grip. Just NO.
Let me tell you that I am very impressed with your work and professionalism, and one of the most beautiful things in the universe is that you do the work that you love in your home, with all the tools necessary for work. I wish you health and strength to make us happy to do all these educational episodes Thank you again, Christian and Vera.
I have to say that effectively ‘restoring’ your D3 is a real testament to your commitment to the brand. And I love Christian’s description of the keyboard mechanics. Awesome episodes on the way 👍
Hi, Christian & Vera,, I've watched many of your fantastic videos. My name is Kenny and I'm from Scotland. I had to send you this message as I found you both to be extremely happy with each other and your lives together along with your sons.. I was a mechanic to trade and its great to see you making tools to help carry out the various projects for your own cars and those of your friends.. Both of you are extremely kind and generous and wish you everything that you would wish for yourselves. I only wish your hobby was for BMW 640D's.. 😂. Great Blacksmithing and bike tricks from your younger son. Wishing you and your family continued health & happiness.
Christian, you express really well what so many non Toyoda owners feel. It is a much more emotional connection to these great, yet sometimes flawed but very “lovable” engineering marvels. 😊
I just love the humour for the 'desktop mechanics' and the ability to laugh at yourselves as well. You show when things don't go right unlike so many Toyota channels ...
To the professional moaners and dumb ass armchair mechanics who think you know better... post the links to all the work you've done and filmed and let us be the judge of how smart you are... No matter what mood you are in, Christian & Vera definitely make you smile. This is going to be an epic series to watch. The more I watch, the more British Christian sounds with his witty one-liners and jokes.
danke Vera und Christian, Sonntag mit Euch und viel Spaß, dankt Euch bin Landy Besitzer eines Disco3 mit Motorschaden aber jetzt der Wagen fährt nach % Monaten Werkstatt. Macht WEITER !!!!!
Good evening Vera & Christian 😊 just back from Albufeira Portugal 🇵🇹 after a holiday so nothing better that a LR video to chill out. Love how concerned Vera is about her beloved Land Rover 🤩 Looking forward again for another exciting LR time video. As always a big kiss for Vera for her dedication on videoing all the hard work Christian puts in xx
Hi folks. I studied Chemistry and thought of Land Rovers. Because we learned that things should be engineered with, metals the same. Iron with iron. Yet, The Land Rover used to have a Aluminium body. So, it's nice to see a couple working with their baby, as a car is like a baby to some people, I heard. I wonder if the body is still Aluminium or are modern Land Rovers steel ? What a complex machine and really an incredible achievement to own this amazing thing . My only tip is to wear gloves and beware of stupid mistakes in British Engineering.
Spent most of the last twenty years. In Germany on Business but mostly pleasure. I collect Porsche’s. You are the Epitome of the Beautiful lovely people. I’ve met. Keep up the excellent work
this is crazy, this is the first time I've ever looked forward to someone with a German accent talking to me about an English car. You are awesome. Greetings from Eastern Europe Vera and Christian.
Have you seen Lanoguard anti rust protector? Had my L322 done. Very pleased with it compared to Dinitrol etc. Much easier to apply. Not hydrocarbon based. Based on lanolin which is the oil in sheep’s wool. I’m a fan 😊
I laughed out loud when the clock fell off. I also need one of those invisible masks off Amazon 😂 you guys are so funny and great to seethe progress on the LR3
The way Vera labels and stores the removed parts is a really good idea. This will be an interesting project. Taking body off looks well worthwhile for doing significant maintenance. You'll get no stupid comments from me. Nobody forces anyone to watch and have you both entertain and educate them. You've certainly busted the myth the German blokes have no sense of humour. Great channel and chemistry from you both. Thank you.
Yep! My 2005 Defender 110 300Tdi (rest of the world spec) also leaks oil from the top of the gearbox (R380). LR did a great job carrying over these amazing characteristics to the newer models.
Hi guys another very interesting and entertaining video. Thank you both for your commitment to keeping your LR3 in prime condition. I’m already looking forward to next Sunday.
I like the armchair mechanic description. I ve been doing similar, though much less ambitious on a 17 year old S Type jag. Your humour and anecdotes resonate with me. Keep up the good work.
If I took my lr to a garage and they paid as much attention to repairs as much as you do I would be a very happy guy. Despite what all those other so called negative mechanics say, you guys are one of the pros. Great vid.well done.
Bought a discovery 3 with discovery 4 lights on it. Already bought an original set to go back on. Loves the videos. Always entertaining. Keep up the great work 👍
“Mall crawler” 😅 In England we call them “Chelsea Tractors” as they’re all bling, never go near any dirt and are only used by posh ladies in Chelsea, a very expensive suburb of London.
As a Jeep man (5.7V8 Hemi) I wouldn’t have a LR product even if it was free. But I love watching your videos and I love your work ethic and attitude. I’ve been to Germany 3 times and have always enjoyed the country and the people. Oh and the beer and food❤️❤️
Good morning all. Another sunday of learning about land rovers, as the saying goes " everyday is a school day" I'm new to land rovers and are taking baby steps with a freelander 2. But enjoy learning about discovery 3 and 4's just in case.. keep up the great work and great videos. Take care and drive safe..
I have watched the past 3 videos keeping my thoughts to myself, I think christan has done a excellent job on doing jobs that most land rover owners will never do this takes skills , know how and a good memory, even tho taking photos can still leave you confused, what I did notice with lr4 engine overhaul was how clean and new everything looked the previous owner must never driven it on bad weather and I noticed how clean christan work space was I am known to set down tools and get grows feet I can't find it when I just had the tool in my hand 😮 now I can see the difference on a well driven lr3 I know vera so happy to be getting a engine overhaul I hope you never get rid of the lr3 it's has a 6 speed manual I wish I had in my lr3 even tho I just had my transmission rebuilt I still have a transmission fault, when I get home I will remove battery and check my transmission/ Transfer Case Control Module TCM , to see if and corrosion I'm hoping of dose to end this drama and the wires on passenger side door trim area , this is simple fixes , sorry vera I know you seen my upgraded tail lights from a lr4 but I am not making my lr3 a lr4 my lr3 is white it about enhances the looks in a black & white theme , this part for christan I just installed my snorkel and like you 3 holes become hard to drill thru but with a different drill bit I was able to without touching the airbag inside, I have a new tool I love by Milwaukee tools it's a battery operated Rivet gun wow what a game changer now I want to Rivet everything well worth the money 💰 🤑 I only wish Milwaukee made battery operated nut insert tool soon I installing my defender ladder and storage box on side of land rover and replacing btake lines that are rusty and broke off anyway good job christan & camera girl vera c u next Domingo
Wow, this is a great show. Just a tip: When restoring the body work, use a rust converter as this will get to any unseen hole that have the potential to restart the rust process from underneath the new primer and top paint, you can if you want to remove this new layer but most rust converters are also like a primer coat. Still think you should extend the filming time as some people are not sure how to use a spanner, i.e. Toyota drivers. Looking forward to the next video.
You guys are hilarious. I love your sense of humor! "I got these silly 20 inch rims on here. I know some people think they look good, but I'm not a drug dealer, ok? They don't suit my needs." That was golden 🤣🤣🤣.
To cheer you up as regards the sniping of the armchair mechanics, may I recommend to watch the sketches of the comedian Harry Enfield involving his 'irritating know-it-all dad' character who advises various people with both household tasks and diverse jobs, viz: 'Oooh, you don't want to do it like that , you want to do it like this' Or 'You don't want to use one of those, you want to use one of these' etc etc.
Missed opportunity to quip “time flies when your having fun’ when holding the clock! I think your both amazing BTW, I wish you were a little closer to me, I would love some help with my P38.
Hi guys a little tip when removing ac lines or brake lines. Use ear buds to stop anything coming out. Work great and colourful so you cannot forget them when re assembly
Very cool. Time kills cars, not just mileage. Most cars need seals replaced after 20 years. The bodies on Land Rovers always look great due to the use of aluminum. Glad you are giving it some attention.
Fantastic start to a Sunday again. Not as many OMGs as I expected ... but I've enjoyed every video from small to big builds and the travelogues. Can't remember what I used to do at this time 😁
I loved your vidoes on the engine rebuild of the Discovery4. Greatstuff. I have never heard a Discovery sound so good before. And to think I feel a bit put out when I have to take my Toyota in for it's annual MOT and service. Keep on with these great vidoes. More power to your elbow.
For a 17 year old car with that mileage, it looks pretty good. My first D3 that I bought new in 2005 did 370,00 km in 14 years before I sold it, one of my lifes biggest regrets. If I manage to buy it back I will do the same as you are doing to Vera's car. Will watch this with interest.
Very very entertaining you guys are great ! My wife a non car enthusiast (stitcher) watches your vids ❤ keep up the good work looking forward to next Sunday too 🤠
This is so cool! I'm a newbie to the LR3 scene and am searching for one to buy at the moment. Both of your enthusiasm is infectious and I've really enjoy watching your videos. Thank you! I've subscribed and look forward to the next episode. Cheers from New Zealand :)
I would love to see Land Rover Classic invite you and your Discovery to their workshops to see how they would overhaul a Discovery 3... pipe dream I know, but would be great viewing. Ignore the keyboard fatalists with their sense of humour bypasses stuck on. Your videos are great entertainment, don't change. 👍
Personally..I wouldn’t listen to the keyboard experts…there are many ways to do something, part of the fun is taking a different path. Love the videos, wish I had a 10th of your skill and time. Looking fwd to this series..from Downunder.
I stumbled across your videos after purchasing a new Amarok ( I haven't picked it up yet). I wanted to find out about the v6 lion engine that it will have in it. I love your videos. Very informative. My son and I are learning about engines through your channel. Very educational. Thank you from Australia.
Looks like this will be a really interesting series too. As for desktop mechanics- well if the way you did it works for you, then it’s the right way for you!
Thoroughly enjoyed this video, Vera and Christian 👍 looking forward to this series. I too love my D3. A vehicle totally worth maintaining / restoring 😊
My '06 LR3/Disco 3 was one of the best vehicles I ever owned, right behind my 1986 944 Turbo and 2004 986 Boxster S. Beautiful styling, insane road manners, but mine was the V8 with horrific fuel consumption. So I went with a L494 diesel...and then I saw your video. Oh well.
This promises to be another very interesting series, I really like the way you two work as team, I have no doubt at all that if that was a Mercedes you would have broken anything that was made of plastic, "they seem to design it to break" they have a special ABS mix, it's Absolute Bloody Shite and found a LOT more rust. don't ask me how I know.
ist immer wieder faszinierend wie viel Erkenntnis aus euren Videos kommt. Ich denke es ist erstaunlich welch hohe Qualität die Bauweise hat und so macht es natürlich Sinn ihn zu erhalten. Allemal bessere wie neue zu bauen die schlechter sind.
I'm curious to see the rust status of the frame and underbody, especially considering all the problems the earlier LR's have with rotten chassis. What could be seen in this video looks good.
I know from the beginning that I will enjoy these videos, as always looking forward to the next episode. l have a friend with a Discovery 3 of a similar age as this one that has had very few problems with, the only one l can think of is a faulty handbrake, his is a manual version which seems quite rare.
It doesn't matter how you decide to take a body off it is your choice, on my classic Austin club members say drop the engine down & get it out from underneath, i use a crane & lift it out from the top, it's my choice no one elses & it's not any harder the way i do it
Apologies for missing a couple of episodes; I’ll catch up with a binge watch session shortly. Just enjoyed this episode with a nice mug of hot chocolate and a few fruit shortcake biscuits, what with it being Spring Bank Holiday.
I think the big rebuilds are what you do best. I'm very much looking forward to watching this projet. BTW, it would be very interesting to see you for a full restoration on one of the older 'traditional' Land rovers at some point. Best of luck with your project but I think you both make your own good luck. ❤
I am very excited about this project, would be good learning material for me. In few years I want to do the same for my disco 3 2007. I want to keep my car forever hence overhaul would be required.
ITS LR TIME😊😊😊 once again great video.such dedication to detail.this discovery will be better than from the factory.looking forward to the next great episode next sunday.till then you guys have a great week😊😊😊
The clock breaking in the first 20 seconds almost killed me haha😂

Rebuilding a working Disco 3 is simply heroic! 😂 👍🏻

Hi guys a little tip when removing ac lines or brake lines. Use ear buds to stop anything coming out. Work great and colourful so you cannot forget them when re assembly
👍👌I have been using earbuds in all of our engine rebuilds. It‘s the best. 🙋♀️Vera
I love your video's! Never mind the comment's, you are doing a great job, and not many people would go this far with maintaining their vehicle!
Very cool. Time kills cars, not just mileage. Most cars need seals replaced after 20 years. The bodies on Land Rovers always look great due to the use of aluminum. Glad you are giving it some attention.
Not even a 17 year old Toyota is in that good of condition Vera and Christian have many more years of fun with this car 👍

For a 17 year old car with that mileage, it looks pretty good. My first D3 that I bought new in 2005 did 370,00 km in 14 years before I sold it, one of my lifes biggest regrets. If I manage to buy it back I will do the same as you are doing to Vera's car. Will watch this with interest.
I have a Range Rover classic with a Toyota Diesel engine, best thing I have ever owned!
😳👍
I like the way the Amazon Invisible Respirator also protects your ears from all the grinding noise…..

Buen contenido, tengo una discovery 3 tdi y aprendo con ustedes, saludos desde el Perú
This is so cool! I'm a newbie to the LR3 scene and am searching for one to buy at the moment. Both of your enthusiasm is infectious and I've really enjoy watching your videos. Thank you! I've subscribed and look forward to the next episode. Cheers from New Zealand :)
I would love to see Land Rover Classic invite you and your Discovery to their workshops to see how they would overhaul a Discovery 3... pipe dream I know, but would be great viewing. Ignore the keyboard fatalists with their sense of humour bypasses stuck on. Your videos are great entertainment, don't change. 👍
Watching this series with great interest. I didn’t realise LR3’s came with manual gbx. That’s a big plus in my book! 😊
You guys are the number 2 mechanics,l am the number 1 and if you had of come and seen me 50 years ago l could have taught you to be number 1.
Number 2 is great. Thanks. Christian
Missed having a Sunday fix of OMG. All the best wishes.
Oh wow, I was so looking forward to this, I never thought you would be doing it so soon.
I wish I had half your energy and drive.
Wow, that car is in amazing condition for its age
Personally..I wouldn’t listen to the keyboard experts…there are many ways to do something, part of the fun is taking a different path.
Love the videos, wish I had a 10th of your skill and time.
Looking fwd to this series..from Downunder.
389k km on my Disco 3 and I have been thinking about doing this too... I cannot wait 🎉🎉
I stumbled across your videos after purchasing a new Amarok ( I haven't picked it up yet). I wanted to find out about the v6 lion engine that it will have in it. I love your videos.
Very informative. My son and I are learning about engines through your channel. Very educational.
Thank you from Australia.
Thank you Wera and Christian for excellent videos. I love to watch and follow to you. ❤
I don't know where you find the energy..looking forward to this series 😃
Looks like this will be a really interesting series too. As for desktop mechanics- well if the way you did it works for you, then it’s the right way for you!
You videos are just brilliant, love seeing them every Sunday.
Thoroughly enjoyed this video, Vera and Christian 👍 looking forward to this series. I too love my D3. A vehicle totally worth maintaining / restoring 😊
My '06 LR3/Disco 3 was one of the best vehicles I ever owned, right behind my 1986 944 Turbo and 2004 986 Boxster S. Beautiful styling, insane road manners, but mine was the V8 with horrific fuel consumption. So I went with a L494 diesel...and then I saw your video. Oh well.
vD. Sie sind Superspitzenmaessig!! (ich habe von 1999 bis 2002 in Berlin gewohnt, als Mitarbeiter für DaimlerChrysler AG). Tchüss!
Most impressive, this will be an interesting project. One brand new "Christianised" LR 3 coming up after the laying on of hands.
I must say that you guys are Great! I love watching your video's every Sunday! Thank you!
This promises to be another very interesting series, I really like the way you two work as team, I have no doubt at all that if that was a Mercedes you would have broken anything that was made of plastic, "they seem to design it to break" they have a special ABS mix, it's Absolute Bloody Shite and found a LOT more rust. don't ask me how I know.
ist immer wieder faszinierend wie viel Erkenntnis aus euren Videos kommt. Ich denke es ist erstaunlich welch hohe Qualität die Bauweise hat und so macht es natürlich Sinn ihn zu erhalten. Allemal bessere wie neue zu bauen die schlechter sind.
Simply brilliant video guys, thank you both for all your efforts.. keep up the great work 👍👍
I enjoy the little family shares.
I'm curious to see the rust status of the frame and underbody, especially considering all the problems the earlier LR's have with rotten chassis. What could be seen in this video looks good.
I know from the beginning that I will enjoy these videos, as always looking forward to the next episode. l have a friend with a Discovery 3 of a similar age as this one that has had very few problems with, the only one l can think of is a faulty handbrake, his is a manual version which seems quite rare.
And a fine ass it is Vera! I'm sure Christian is well aware of that too, keep up the great work you guys 😊😊😊.
Absolutely mind boggling... I was wondering if LR has ever offered you a job.
It doesn't matter how you decide to take a body off it is your choice, on my classic Austin club members say drop the engine down & get it out from underneath, i use a crane & lift it out from the top, it's my choice no one elses & it's not any harder the way i do it
My favourite TH-cam channel - Great Video. 👍
Apologies for missing a couple of episodes; I’ll catch up with a binge watch session shortly.
Just enjoyed this episode with a nice mug of hot chocolate and a few fruit shortcake biscuits, what with it being Spring Bank Holiday.
Looking forward to watching all of the instalments on this latest project, just wonderful😊
Ihr seid weltklasse!!!!
LR komoedienstadelmechanikfachlehrgang!!!!
In englisch sind das bestimmt 10 woerter 😅
I think the big rebuilds are what you do best. I'm very much looking forward to watching this projet.
BTW, it would be very interesting to see you for a full restoration on one of the older 'traditional' Land rovers at some point.
Best of luck with your project but I think you both make your own good luck.
❤
Watch (Gavin) "Foreman and Wilms" (Sumer Wilms) for a very humorous rebuild of an old Landie.
I am very excited about this project, would be good learning material for me. In few years I want to do the same for my disco 3 2007. I want to keep my car forever hence overhaul would be required.
ITS LR TIME😊😊😊 once again great video.such dedication to detail.this discovery will be better than from the factory.looking forward to the next great episode next sunday.till then you guys have a great week😊😊😊
I was hoping that you would move onto the Disco 3 after the engine rebuild on the Disco 4. Excellent content as always - keep up the great work.
