Not many users on the D5 site. Better off being a sub group on here, just like D3, D4.

It doesn't seem to have the same feel and banter on D5 as it does here. It seems a bit 'sterile'. Besides a sub group seems like a good idea on here because people like to hear how peeps are getting on and also to stay in touch with those they come to know on this forum.New Defender L663 110 SE (known as Noddy!)
Sold Volvo XC90 R-Design (known as Basil)
Sold - D4 HSE (Known as Gerty)
No longer the Old Buses original owner
231,000 miles and counting
05 S manual owned from March 2005
D4 Face lifted
Still original injectors and turbo
V8 Front brakes
BAS Remap, Allisport Intercooler and deCat
EGRs blanked
T-Max split charge
Hanibal Expeedition rack
Prospeed ladder
Duratrac tyres
IID BT
BAS FBH control
I agree even though I am the poor relation in my D3 its good to see how you lads are getting on with something I will be buying in 10 years or so, hell I haven't even got a D4 yet The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the best of everything they have.

Maybe Martin could give the D5 a subsection on here (contents copied from the Disco5 site maybe) just like the D3 and D4 have?

Really? It is a very active forum. Very little is posted here by comparison.
I just visit both.

I’d disagree. The below screen shot usually pops up.
I’d also agree with Moo personally. Plus the resources and knowledge on the D3/4 site are far more extensive. Just seems a logical extension to include the D5 on this forum rather than separate it.

Are you sure your search is working, some features of Disco5 do not work the same way as the other forums.
I have this saved https://disco5.co.uk/forum/search.php?search_id=newposts and brings up new posts every morning and afternoon for me.
This sub forum can go for weeks without any posts, although is seems to be alive at the moment!
There maybe more knowledge on here about D3's and D4's but no way for D5's.
There is so much that is different and unless you had a D5 then would not have a clue.
Apps, infoitainment, electrics to name a few that raise a multitude of questions.

Kids are on holidays. After lunch I offered them to go to a beach just north of Torridon for a couple of hours. Not that warm, but fine for a walk.
One off in his car with the dog to do a walk in the woods and the other two turned the central heating up to “tropical”
There’s always tomorrow. Might as well go and clear the garage up.

I’ve got a fair amount for the tip but thankfully I’ve got a trailer. I’ve stuffed 8 x 1 cubic meter bags with cuttings. Seemed like a good idea at the time, but I was relying on big boy to help me.
