We Bought a "Failed-Engine" Land Rover Discovery 4 in Mint Condition / S5-Ep8 

Every time a Disco breaks down with terrible engine issues, the dealers are now shipping them off towards the locality of Frankfurt in the hope that Vera makes Christian buy it!

You guys are amazing, me and my wife cannot even decorate together without arguing yet you two build discoveries together. Well done.

28:16 I've never seen someone so happy about a blown engine lol

This is so addictive I’m thinking of buying one, but I don’t have room for a lathe in the kitchen…..

Your drive is starting to look like a Landrover Dealership 😂😂😂

One thing is for sure: there will never be a shortage of Land Rovers for these two hilarious people to argue over .. I mean fix for us to enjoy on YT ... 👍👍

Love it guys! Your channel is why I bought my my disco 4 about two years ago. She's a 2012 XS with a lot of extras had 117k miles now 126k. So far apart from servicing gearbox and general servicing, it's cost me for replacing the inlet manifolds which both cracked one hot day on Exmoor last summer. She came with a full Landrover service history and two prior female owners. From looking through the computer, she had done 26m in ice and snow settings before I bought her in total and zero miles in any other setting, so I knew she'd never been offroad. Well, she definately has now! We use her as a camper, with an inflatable mattress and all rear seats folded down, we put our luggage on the front seats and it is very comfortable. I look forward to Sundays and seing how to use all the tools I have had to buy to keep my Mall Crawler road and mud ready! To me, your channel is like a video version of the Haynes manual, with jokes and commentary - so thanks for all the useful information and laughter and long may you continue to inform and entertain the rest of us D3/4/Queen - addicts.

If you're in the market for a Discovery 4, then this is the video to watch. Christian and Vera give such good insight into what to look for in a used vehicle from interior accessories, reading fault codes, mechanical inspection and much more. This video (and all the others) is brilliant! I'm going to be looking at a couple of D4s this week and I will have my eyes wide open with my list of things to look out for.

40:29 Christian & Vera, the only owners who sell their LR because it’s too reliable! Love the channel, only wish you guys had a LR with a 5.0 Jag V8 so I could learn more from your channel.

Fantastic guys! Our 2012 Disco 4 SDV6 we've owned 2 years, has just had it's 18th service and eclipsed 170k miles! We love it

Ah, my favourite Sunday morning video entertainment, thanks again to you both.

Dealer starts shaking when Vera and Christian stroll in...😂 ....my favourite duo. Brilliant as always.😊😊

In 10 years time, Darmstadt will be known all over the world as the global hub for the most reliable Land Rovers. I think I should get ahead of the game now, and start an independent LR showroom in the area.

I love this channel. Buying the worst British cars while living in Germany is definitely an odd lifestyle, but it's very very entertaining.

Interesting to hear of all the electrical options in the LR4. Thankfully Land Rover has a fantastic reputation for reliability for all these 😂😂😂

I'm happy watching but sad afterwards because I know it's going to be another 7 days before I see Christian and Vera again.

The two of you have got to be the craziest LR couple on the planet! I salute you 👌

Thanks for putting a smile on my face this morning, watching you both and the lovely energy between you two. Great that Vera is onboard with your projects. I think she will have more knowledge about Land Rovers than many LD owners!! 👍👍👍😀😀

Should call this Series...Rover Rehab!

I love Vera. It’s a blessing to have a wife that loves this as much as Christian does. It means more arguments but it’s nice dor you to have her there. Lucky man!

I've always understood column lettering as follows: Between bonnet and front doors: A column. Between front and rear doors: B column Behind rear doors: C column At back tailgate: D column

When none of your Land Rovers and Range Rover have zero problem. Buy another one! Christian and Vera never disappoint. And you guys should do a reliability video between the LR3 and LR4, you can tag the queen along for that ride.

There is a dip stick on the Discovery 4, it is usually sitting behind the steering wheel 🙂

Excellent, I don’t get out of bed till I’ve watched your weekly presentation You need a solid bar for shunting make life so much easier

Hi Guys from the UK. I don’t have a D3 or 4 but do have a very much loved and very well cared for D2. I’ve only recently found your channel, but I’m really enjoying going through your back catalogue of videos. Great energy between you both and very entertaining. Looking forward to the work you’ve get planned on the new arrival. Keep up the great work. A fellow Discovery enthusiast.

Absolutely brilliant video. Christian's top tip for buying a used Land rover... buy a beautiful home with a 2 pillar lift first. This is going to be a great series. Glad to see your father in the Christian. Had seen him since the diy line boring video

I did have a full spec 4 but it was just kicking back repeat electrical problems which were costing me a fortune. My 3 did so far 35.000 km on new C&V oil recommendations and I'm smiling. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

No denying these vehicles have the best interiors , still looks good inside and out for a 2015.

So entertaining to see you two at work:). Arguably the Best car repair channel on, imo.., :)

What a lovely Sunday morning. Thanks for this guys. ☕️

Just great Christian and Vera, a perfect way to end my Sunday. Your enthusiasm is infectious and we can’t wait to meet grandad!

I've had my weekly dose of LR time. Ready for anything now! Thanks guys

This is my favorite comedy channel on RU-vid!

I love to listen to the banter between you two , and I hope that the sofa is comfortable Vera

Came across you site by accident, oh man what have bene missing out on all this time! I love the banter, subtle innuendoes and of course content. Great site you have another follower!

Brilliant , thank you for making my Sunday morning lie in!

Hi guys again another great informative video , looking forward to seeing this pulled down and fixed. Just love the commentary cheers from down under

wow another Landrover masterclass start's again 😃

Christian might be land rover discovery nerd of the century. I wonder waht fun things he will need to make in his kitchen/machine shop to get this one sorted? Looking forward to the series on this one, should be fascinating, and I'm hoping to learn a lot about all the tiny differences between this one and the others. It's a very comforting feeling knowing there is such a wealth of knowledge out there, makes everything a ltttle less scary.

Soo glad you’ve bought this car! Really looking forward to following your progress!

Love the videos, and you both are great fun to watch working together. Thanks for taking he time to create them.

You guys are awesome, you make me smile. Thanks for putting up with all us desk top mechanics. Good luck I'll be watching.

Thank you so much guys. That's answered a lot of questions I hadn't even thought of. Very informative. You two are just amazing ❤

You two are just amazing! Thank you, i learned so much and can't wait 'till you drop the sump!!

I just bought my new to me 2011 LR4 and I'm very happy with it so far. Timing chain had been done a couple hundred miles before I took ownership so I was confident in the purchase. I've been looking through a lot of youtube videos on LR4s because, well of coarse I would. Anyway, I'm super happy to have found this channel. I love you twos back and forth bantering but also can sense the passion you have behind the vehicles as well. An easy channel to subscribe too!

Once again my tea and toast was complimented with another quality video,thanks again you two👌

Impressed by the technical knowledge and skills, amused by the interaction and loving the cooperation and overlanding :-)

Hi there I’m in the uk i watch all your videos Christian really now’s his discos love you guys I’ve just bought a 2014 HSE luxury with engine failure but it’s got all the extras your talking about it had a spun bearing on a big end I’ve rebuilt now and runs lovely Just a note 2014 started with the start stop Look forward to the next video on this car you guys are the best

Vera and Christian, it looks like some more great Disco content coming soon, fabulous!

Christian and Vera, you guys are just brilliant. Your videos are so entertaining, your banter is hilarious and your technical skills are just amazing. Ignore any trolls in any Facebook groups they should be totally ignored and you guys should keep doing what you do - just brilliant. My partner was borne in Darmstadt and she still has a house there. I have a Discovery 2 and am looking for a 2016 D4. Though I could never do the things you do I am learning so much about them from you. Thank you. Paul

I've only just found your channel and loved every minute. I am now subscribed and looking forward to many more of your videos. Best wishes from England 😊

I just had to subscribe😂 The banter is legendary. Dry German humour. Am hooked on day 1

Stumbled over your video from UK and I love your channel … great teamwork & humour 👍🏻

As a Brit I’ve always been told that the Germans have no sense of humour. These lovely people prove that that is total nonsense. What a debacle!… you need to get some tee shirts printed, Vera.

GLAD OF YOUR NEW PUCHASE THIS WILL BE MORE GOOD CONTENT FROM YOU AND VERA THANK YOU ALL THE BEST

A new and exciting adventure awaits. Can’t wait for the future videos. Good job guys

I’m looking forward to your work and repairs. I have also a Discovery 4, but SDV6 - love it!

Great video and thank you Christian and Vera for enabling me to realise that my D4 has a heated steering wheel, no more numb fingers. I've only had the car nearly 5 years, I am a dummkopf 🤡.

As a 76 year old HIPPO owner here In the UK, I just laugh at you twos Play with words at each other. Love you both bless you. The final laughter from myself was the appearance of your dear old Dad bless him. What has he let himself In for - LOL.. Don't ever stop you two, you bring both more LR knowledge and laughter Into my life. PS. What is the quickest way to drain my Sedimenter on my TD4 HSE please, apart from laying on the floor and draining it. I need a car lift in my life - LOL

What a pair you are. Fantastic. Following from South Africa with my 2010 LRD4 bought new . Only replaced my suspension pump 4 years ago due to many hard trips through the Kalahari desert.

I’m looking forward to timing belt replacement. Thanks for videos. Really impressive.

Awesome! Can’t wait to join on your latest Discovery rebuild series :-)

Kloop after a bad season with Liverpool 😂 , great video

Great content yet again looking forward to see this one getting repaired. Thanks.

Dude and Dudess, love that you guys are so passionate about a British car. I am enthralled with your enthusiasm. I also love the wife/husband interaction. (would not happen in my household) If you PM me I will send you a British/London bump cap so you can really be in the zone. Be cool.

You two are some of the best viewing on you tube Vera is lovely and that smile melts me I look forward to Sundays with you two cheers guys is knowledge of Discovery is amazing.

Hi both, another great Video from you and very informative on the Discovery 4, and can’t wait for the new videos on your new Discovery.

Love the team work. You take calculated risks and your wife is clearly the voice of reason.

I've watched a few of your videos in the past,i've had a few Land-Rovers myself but mine were series 2s and 3s,indeed my most modern was a Discovery 1 v8 which i had for 17 years.Up until now,i've not subscribed even though you're both very entertaining but once you said you'd never drive an EV i immediately knew we were kindrid spirits and hit the button! Good luck with this one,it'll be interesting to see what is going on inside that engine

Excellent news. Looking forward to the engine rebuild on the Disco 4.

What a excellent episode 👏👏👏👏 Can not wait for next Sunday 👍😊

I dont have a Land Rover at the moment but I find myself watching your videos! Its great entertainment and lots of useful information. My last Land Rover was a L322 4.4 TDV8 and now I am thinking of buying a L405 with the same engine. And yes, Land Rovers are extremely cheap in the UK, I live here!

Thanks for another interesting informative video look forward to seeing the broken oiley bits! 😅

Just found your channel and subscribed! Very valuable information!

Your both so funny and entertaining, I don't and have never owned a Land Rover but i'm hooked on your videos 😀

Very refreshing RE tutorial and educational video. You both are very easy to understand and learn from TOPS MARKS!

1:34 Literally thought the truck was going that fast. LOL

Another excellent video from you both. See you next Sunday. 🙏

you earned another sub, well done Vera and Christian.

I hope your not offended by this but A German with a good sense of humour is as rare as a fully functioning Land Rover 😊

Love hearing 2 germans speaking english. Sehr schön. Mein Vater ist Deutscher.

Vera and Christian, saving Land Rover Discoverys, one engine rebuild at a time 👍🏻 looking forward to seeing how this one goes. We couldn't really hear the engine sound over Vera's screams looks like the Queen remains on her throne for a while then.

Peparing the Maul crawler for sale, fixing Vera's D3 steering and now a new engine rebuild lots of Sunday content to keep me entertained. Hope all this doesn't mean too many nights on the couch for Vera.😂

Of course there's a dipstick it's sat in the driving seat 😂😂😂 ,,its going to be interesting to see why it broke ,,,great video

The best Time is LR TIME.. Great video guy's 👍

the most wholesome couple you will find out here. Love the content!

First video I’ve seen from you both, great video , really enjoyed it and Vera is adorable 🙂

Watching you both is like watching myself and my husband every time we do a chore.😂

Hello from the UK! These videos are great - keep up the good work :) - Oh, I just bought my first Discovery 4 so you are welcome to the UK for a vacation to help with repairs ;)

What another one ! Amazing ! lets see what the diagnosis is on this one.

Yay, another Landy to work on. I look forwards to future videos

Great video! lots of good info. Thanks.

So looking forward to the engine rebuild videos. 👌👌

A brilliant video about a brilliant vehicle! Looking forward to the series, just hope i never need to copy the process on mine! Although I love it so much I'd be prepared to do it. 😅

I don't even have a Land Rover and watched the entire video. Very entertaining. ;-)

I don't have a Range rover,I never have been in one,I have not even drive one,but your content is purely addicted. Great 👍🏻 👌

guys please do a future video with a RR L322! Pleaseeeee! super cool watching you repair all these cars!

Great video guys! I want a D4 now.. Very interesting about the different spec options inside!! I love my L322 but these look much better on the outside, i wonder if they feel the same on the road?

Good morning! I love the fact you know how crap the uk market is on cars and Facebook market place lol! As a massive fan can you tell me your thoughts on the 3.6v8 Land Rover did? Love the channel guys!

You two are both very brave. When I had my D2 the mechanic used to say he had several customers with D3's looking for something more reliable if I ever wanted to sell it. No wonder Vera has such a trim figure, lifting all those batteries.😄
