New toy

Hi all......

I have just purchased a Discovery 4 for work, having had Range Rovers from 1992-2012 when I bought a Navara Crying or Very sad

In all hnoesty the navara wasn't a bad tool but it's no landrover Banging Head Banging Head

Due to what I do and the recent snow on Boxing Day I was at Gordon lambs @ Chesterfield the following day.
I'm on call every night to the Ambulance service to recover/assist with any issues.
Eg
Stuck in fields, flat batteries, RTC's and so on.......

This leads me to my first question.
Where is the best place for a winch kit? The one that fits discreet in the bumper.

My disco will be liveried up similar to a police car with more lights than Blackpool next week.
I'll post a pic once done.

Anyway enough from me for now.....

Paul

Quite a few have fitted the D44 front bumper. Pricey but worth it they say.

Welcome along BTW Thumbs Up

If anyone can recommend a supplier (I'm all for supporting the forum) and its sponsors
I'd appreciate that.

Another question guys

If I leave the car running with the remote in my pocket ( me out of car) if someone was to drive off would it stop the engine when it gets out of range?
