In this weeks video we show how we build a high quality pressurized water tank which can be used as a solar shower. We mounted the tank to a LR3 onto the Frontrunner roof rack. Hope you enjoy the video.
Come back soon to see the full material list here.

"Fitter" is exactly the right english word for what you are doing on the installation - but the design and build of this project, particularly the tank support brackets is called "sheer genius" ! Beautiful job Christian.

Fantastic work Christian, a very involved project involving lots of various tools and design, Vera will no doubt have been the main brains behind the operations but too modest to let it be filmed 😉👍. Fabian should be able to get tax relief as his vehicle can also act as a fire fighting vehicle now 😀

I would love to hear more on you theory of "do not rotate" when assembling PVC parts with PVC cement?? I was always taught a 1/4 turn to help the glue engage with the parts and help eradicate air bubbles!! Love the M6 allen's holding on the cover half's and the addition of the O ring was about a "German engineering" as it gets . Great project Great result!!

Another great video thanks but here in Australia there has been a wake up call on roof racks and roof load limits. You will find that on the D3/4 that the dynamic load limit is 75kg. That includes the weight of the rack as well as anything else attached. Take care!

A lot of the things you have done i.e the heating for the roof top tent an the shower I also had experience of on my liveaboard boat , I was much more trail an error an copius amounts of bad language than you two but I got my chinese heating to work and also used the exhaust to make a coil heater for my water, using brake piping . RU-vid is a fantastic learning tool an you are wonderful teachers.

I love all of your videos! My first Land Rover was a new, 1973 L88 3 door with safari roof that I bought in Denver, Colorado USA. Then a 1999 Discovery II, a 2009 Range Rover HSE Sport and now I drive a very civilized 2016 LR4 (disco4) HSE LUX V6 supercharged petrol. I bought it used with 74.800 miles, 1 owner, it looks brand new, for $25.000 US dollars! I am a cleaning freak, just like Christian and adorable Vera! I installed interior Land Rover Rubber Matts, and cleaned the interior with sprays and brushes, compressed air and lots of vacuuming. The interior looks brand new! No scratches. I washed the engine bay with brushes, compressed air, degrease the engine components, and hose it down where water is allowed. Your videos are very instructional and straight to the point, without the extra useless comments found in other videos. My next task is to de-clog the sunroof hoses, because we moved from Utah to Florida where we have torrential rains just about every day. Keep up the great work!

You have really excelled and bonus was you got to use the the fly cutter ,the 3D printed cover made this professional work ...thanks for all the hard work you put in you have me thinking about going to a D3 with all your maintenance /repair video's to help keep one running ,my 21 year old D2 is far less complicated but not as comfortable but I don't worry about scratching it 😃
@Vera_and_Christian
@Vera_and_Christian 3 года назад
I would take a D2 any day. Unfortunately, because of the emission standards in our area, I'll have to wait until the D2 turns 30. Then you can apply for a historical plate and emissions do not matter anymore. That is Germany😥. But we do not worry about scratiching our D3 also. 👍🙋‍♀️ Vera

EXACTLY what I've been looking for. I have a disco 5 and a Front Runner Rack but I'm either looking to mount it on the side or make a smaller one that would mount inside or like on top of the roof rack towards the rear since I carry a roof tent on top too. It would make it a bit smaller in capacity but I don't really have room for anything else on there once the tent is on. However the shower would off set the awning on the other side though.

So spured on by your amazing and very well detailed videos I decided to do a job on my Range Rover Sport (Discovery 3 in a posh dress). The engine oil sump was porous and weeping oil so I decided to change it. As per all your advice I set the car into extended mode for extra height and then I remembered that I needed to pull the 3rd fuse and also I pulled the solenoid. Imagine my horror when I took the cover off and there was no fuse box 😱😱😱😱then remembered mine is a UK car and as such on the other side but I automatically went to the other side as you do in your videos 😂😂all done and no more leaks. The pan was not only porous but around the gasket the rust had gotten to the mounting face and so had bits missing! One for us all to check. Keep up the good work and any indication of when your glamorous assistant will be sending out the stickers? Apparently I was in the next batch but that was a while ago 😉😂😂👍take care and stay safe 😷
