Hi just joined Disco 3 forum and hope someone can help me!
I recently had my spare 19" HSE alloy stolen from under the car. I have a new replacement through insurance but have not put it back on yet as worried may get stolen again. I know I can get a space saver but does anyone have any other ideas that would secure the 19" alloy under the car? I have spoken to Landover but they were not much help!
Thanks

Access height - drops the car 2" and may make it less desirable and more awkward to remove the spare...Cheers

There's a lever to the left of you, and to the left of the terrain response setting (near the big yellow button in front of your arm rest/coolbox. One way puts it into Off Road mode and the other way puts it into access height. Access height drops the height of the Disco to make it easier to get in and out of the vehicle, but more importantly, makes it much more difficult to get underneath the car.

Sorry to hear you plight on the stolen wheel issue, and I hope all is sorted soon, but cannot help in thinking that maybe, just maybe and sorry to suspect things
