My Red Discovery 4
Hi,
Owned my Discovery for just over a month now and loving it! Not done too much other than polishing it and adding mats / rigid boot liner.
Seems to have everything needed including some items the dealer forgot to mention (or didn't know it had) such as surround cameras!
Thought I would add some photos.
Thanks,
Craig

black alloys would make it look even better

Thanks.
It was actually advertised with black alloys but apparently (according to the dealer) these where damaged and couldn't be sold. - sounds suspicious! I like the straight spoke look over curved ones so I am quite happy with them but black would be a nice upgrade in the future.

Thanks, Reds the best 8)
Think the logo projectors come as standard with new models but I'm not sure.
They come as a pair so you'll need to buy two sets to fit to all 4 doors or just fit to two doors if you want. Easy to fit in 5 minutes, just unplug the original light fitting and plug in the new ones, taking note of the direction of the logo so it can be read from the person entering the door.

Love those puddle lights, so distinct. The MY15 comes with an outline of the Disco projected from the wing mirror lights.Cheers Scott.

Blimey, I had no idea such a thing could be bought!
That red is a bit of a thing of ours - this Disco, the currrent Freelander 2 AND even the FL2 before that!
I wouldn't be too worried about the wheel colour, the silver looks just fine 2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2

My last Land Rover was red too (Freelander2) when I bought it the dealer recommended against it due to resale value and they said they had never even seen one before... seven years later theres loads of red Land Rovers going about! Not so many red Discoverys around here but I have seen a few.

I did see something along those lines but wasn't sure if it was the mirror or the door lights with the Discovery logo. I wonder if anyone has both as it might look too much!?

Thanks for that. It's a crazy, pointless idea. And I've just ordered a pair!
With a little Googling, I've just found that this code will get an 10% knocked off at the checkout

How did you get on with your old FL2? I wish I could manage to keep a car for 7 years. I always start with good intentions! Mind you, the only way I can afford this one is by running this one into the ground!
