The only place for a coil spring is up Zebedee's arse

Is the obsession with customizing and upgrading the Range Rover P38 diverting attention from its inherent mechanical flaws? What if the solution to enhancing its performance lies in addressing the existing weaknesses rather than adding more gadgets? Let's discuss the balance between modification and maintenance.

I'm not obsessed with customising either of mine. The only mods are replacement stereo (1 wasn't working, and the other was missing). Maintenance has been varied from one complete engine rebuild to sorting the EAS properly on both plus wheel bearings, steering joins, prop spiders,etc.

Or are we overlooking the real question, is the user real?

If not AI, in the US where everyone thinks they know better than the people that designed it. As standard it was the best off road at the time of production and can still hold its own against more modern machinery if the driver knows what he is doing.

Everyone??
Ahem.....
Careful how widely you tar us over here with that very wide brush you are using....
There are a lot of us all over the planet that want to keep things just as they're designed, thank you very much!

Having stepped off of my soap box, I can certainly appreciate your take on the unwashed masses that are currently teeming on the dark side!
Some of your answers are vintage Toad Hall!!!
Got me laughing several times.
Do you also have an urge to drink good single malt from the bottle with a straw
Whilst you moderate over there?
Keep up the good work. You are appreciated wether it seems like it or not.

Now, could you please send me a tacho conversation box for a 454 big block Ford I am installing?

Yes, I suppose I am influenced by some of the lesser educated over on the dark side. I have to keep my answers to a level that doesn't cause the profanity filter to kick in too, re-inventing the wheel springs to mind. Martin has done it and documented it all but he insists on trying to do thing differently and it is never going to work. Quite why he is so hung up on the tacho when he doesn't even have a means of connecting his gearbox to his transfer case is beyond me....
