Land Rovers we regret selling, modifying a run-out Special Edition and how to start a project

In this week's episode, Land Rover Monthly editor Martin Domoney is joined by LRM's Alice Sumner-Andrews for a Listeners' Questions special! Alice hand-picks some excellent questions from the editorial@lrm.co.uk [editorial@lrm.co.uk] inbox and Martin gets to answering them, from an Irish listener who's bought a project unseen to a question about which Land Rovers from years gone by we regret selling and loads more. There's also a sneak peek into the new issue of Land Rover Monthly, including the very cool but slightly controversial cover car – a heavily modified and updated 2016 Defender 110 Adventure Editon.

Saving Defenders from the crusher – US attorney Will Hedrick

In this week's episode, Martin and Steve join US attorney and Land Rover fanatic Will Hedrick to chat all things Land Rover, and touch on the epic story of how he took it upon himself to legally represent owners of Defenders seized by the US government. The guys talk the import of Land Rovers from the United Kingdom into the United States, the rules that had to be followed, and what can happen if those rules aren't adhered to. The State doesn't always get it right, though... The guys also talk about the Land Rover club scene in America, and the greatness that is Land Rover ownership no matter where on the planet you live.

The Lightweight jigsaw puzzle

In this week's episode. Martin and Steve are back for an hour of Land Rover-based chat – and this week, it centres mainly over Martin's excavation of a trio of Series III Lightweights from the back of a barn. There's a listener's question about extended truck cab conversions, and another about converting a Series manual gearbox to automatic, and the benefits in doing so. The pair also chat about why you probably need a winch, and tell you exactly where to get one.

Range Rover GT, fleet updates and are Defenders good family cars?

In this episode of The LRM Podcast, Land Rover Monthly Editor, Martin Domoney, and publisher, Steve Miller, are back at base talking Land Rovers on the salmon sofa. The pair kick off with a question – do you like the episodes of The LRM Podcast with guests, or with just Martin and Steve? Winding down from an extremely busy show season, the boys discuss their next big project – a series of buying guides on all the very coolest Land Rover models which will be going live on the LRM YouTube channel over the coming 12 months. Martin debates which Land Rover model is the ideal family car ahead of his upcoming new arrival – Defender, Discovery, Range Rover – or is a Freelander enough? The guys also touch on the new Range Rover GT, a brand-new model to the lineup that's decidedly road-biased, and discuss where it actually sits in the stable. Like this episode of The LRM Podcast?

The notorious London Mud Club, getting a good deal with Larry the Land Rover and why BMW power is king with Jonathan East

In this week's episode, Martin and Steve are back on the Salmon Sofa at The Big Land Rover Fest. It's hot and sunny, the mics are on and the conversation is flowing. First up to join the boys are Lord Trousers and Captain Ratty from the "notoriously popular but impossible to join" London Mud Club to chat cigars, stylish clothing and Land Rover-based shenanigans. The guys talk about future adventures and why Land Rover ownership doesn't have to be serious. Next up on the sofa is Jubilee Lorne, the driving force behind the Larry the Land Rover social media account. From camping out of a 90 with her family to using techniques to get the very best deal when buying a Land Rover to her top festival essentials, Jubilee's enthusiasm is infectious. Finally, Jonathan East joins the boys on the sofa to talk all things engine conversions and running a Land Rover business on the Isle of Wight. Johnathan explains the importance of the new generation of gearboxes when doing engine conversions to Land Rovers, sourcing donors, Series trucks and more.
