[@kittehgo]

What i like about this channel, is the humor,friendships and the nitty gritty of tank/ armoured vehicle fixing. No brushing over that it's a dirty job or that it can be painful and aggravating at times.

@MrHewes and his crew are like the armoured version of Hammond, Clarkson and May. Perfect chemestry between all involved with this channel.

All those options available from the factory at no extra cost.

[@Zermattquattro]

Don’t forget the porous cylinder head and leaky injectors accompanied by the need for a rear 1/4 chassis. Ohh and the added fun of trying to drop the fuel tank to replace a fubar fuel pump (without cutting an access hole in the boot floor). They are the gift that keeps on giving.

You guys are having an almost illegal amount of fun, keep up the good work! I am truly impressed with how you remember all the quirks of curing these slightly poorly machines!

Mmm I would think it's not exactly as easy as merely remembering stuff there will be a lot of research/asking people etc goes in to each job. Remeber we only see 15-20 minutes every other day or so

Another ripper Lads! I'm still driving my 04 TD5 Disco and love it ......manual box though. It has been very reliable for me once you know the few things to keep on top of! Just replacing a coolant hose this week, but to be fair, it is 20 yrs old! Jack will love it and fix ix it up nicely I presume 😉 Keep it up gentlemen CHeers Gregg....

Another heartwarming video of Jack being rude to Adam. Equally, a shocking video of Jack being polite to Joe. It better not last, or everyone will need counselling. 😊😂❤😂😊

YOU MUST REALLY HATE HIM TO GIVE HIM THAT PICE OF CRAP .🤣🤣

[@slateslavens]

WOW! I guess the 2000 Disco I bought for my wife was a steal at $2000 USD! 192k miles and in _much_ better condition. OFC, it's suffering from the "Three Amigos" trio of dash warning lights: ABS, Traction Control, and Hill Descent.I have the skills to fix it, but not a diagnostic computer to clear the faults. It's currently down for a failed brake master cylinder. Second of two, actually. The original let go at 192,064 miles and 24 years after later. The replacement 'chinesium knockoff' I replaced it with lasted exactly 24 days and 764 miles. That's 1/365th of the lifespan and 0.397% of the miles of the original part. I'll be ordering a replacement TRW part in a week or so. If you have a low-budget suggestion for a diagnostic tool that's capable of performing the 'power bleed' or whatever it's called, I'd much appreciate it. There's only one local shop that is equipped to do the job of bleeding the ABS system properly after replacing the master cylinder, and they want $400 USD for the job. Considering how quickly the first replacement failed, I'm gonna be in for almost $1000 USD just for brake bleeding before this is over. And that's not even addressing the aforementioned Three Amigos issue. They charge $50 just to connect the diagnostic computer, tell you what's wrong and clear it.... Thanks from a disabled US vet!

[@kiwidonkeyk1656]

oh I bet you get some grief from the "elf and safety" brigade about working under that pack without supports😱😄. Great video as always, thanks.

[@jfro5867]

Long time subscriber. Love the tanks, the military vehicles, the ‘bants’ but this episode has actually hit the nail on the head for me why I like the channel so much. It’s the warmth and friendship between you all. It’s obviously genuine and very rare to find on tv or KZbin. Don’t let this go to your heads but it’s very reminiscent of Clarkson, May, Hammond. I mean that as a huge compliment btw. Top Gear died when they left.

[@Johnkels100]

let's face it lots of old landys, / discos not many of those foreign Johnnies around. Keep up all the good fun while working. Great stuff

[@twin40dave]

Smile on Jack's face ... priceless 😊😊

[@DIVERBLOKE1]

Lovely gift there, all in perfect working order, when it was made (Ok that might be stretching it a bit with land Rovers). Also as an added extra it had an authentic lived in (and partially vandalised) look which will deter predators and anyone with any sense of self worth from stealing it. better than any alarm or disabler. However I had a Disco and loved it till the onboard sprinkler system in the leaking rooflights decided to make driving unpalatable as it would store about 2 pints of water until you went and moved it which would then drench any fire you may have had in your lap as a precaution. It was given to a farmer mate who repaired said rooflight after his Disco caught fire mysteriously as he was welding something on it. It ended its days sideways in a ditch which is where all landrovers should end up. Hours of endless fun beforehand. Bravo Mr H.

[@gagatube]

"It ended its days sideways in a ditch which is where all Land Rovers should end up" - yes, that's sort of their equivalent to a Viking funeral.

Would've been funny af if you'd stolen the van and left the disco in its place then called him.😂 On a side note the wife survived colo-rectal cancer and is a 6 year survivor now. My bit of pay it forward was to put an awareness car together and donate it to FightCRC colo-rectal cancer awareness for their charity. We're currently selling tickets for it now. It's a 73 superbeetle (VW1303S). one good turn deserves another and despite appearances I do actually like the Mrs quite a lot. And remember, behind every successful man is a woman telling him it can't be done.😅 Just don't let Jack use the Whitetown song "I could never be your woman" as his signature song!
