Christian is the most knowledgable Landrover mechanic I have ever seen, he and Vera also have a great sense of humour. I really enjoy their videos.

It’s just it and out, like in the bedroom 😂. Happy Easter guys 👍

German attention to detail, with added bonus of lovely humour. Regards from Perth, Western Australia.

OMG Vera is the best mechanic assistant , so organised .

Bloody brilliant…cracked up when you said it’s like the bedroom…”only in and out”.

As always top notch, Love the way Vera calls out the "AMATEURS" happy easter!

I can’t wait to see what horrors you discover from the previous rebuild.

I would buy any of these off of you with pride. Amazing mechanical skills,great couple, and family. As a time served manual machinist myself, I'm jealous of your workshop and appreciate your machine skills. Thank you two for these past 3 years since I discovered you while nearly buying a disco 3 or 4. I look forward to seeing you every Sunday so I can disappear from this world for a while. You are a brilliant couple with an amazing sense of humour .💜💜💜

@Vera_and_Christian Vera and Christian, you really don't know what you've done for me . Thank you. I'm Scottish, but was born in Wegberg as an R.A.F brat. I believe you're ex military judging by places you have lived. My UK driving licence says born in West Germany. Thank you, and I feel proud of your sons. I love mountain biking, but I have done minor bmx riding and as part of my work I have done welding fabrication and, to an extent, blacksmithing. Much respect to all of you, especially Vera the obvious glue to your lovely family and organisation.

I went to work wearing different shoes thirty years ago. Nobody noticed until we had a meeting just before lunch where we were sitting around in a circle and my boss said, 'Are you wearing different shoes?'. I spent my lunch hour driving home and back to change. I'd like to say I can laugh about it now, but I absolutely can't.

Best plan is to fein a foot injury and brave it out.

Your policy of clean, photograph and clearly bag work every time, we had a customer turn up with a tracked WW2 vehicle he had dismantled years before , nothing photographed, nothing labelled or bagged properly, mountains of stuff in old shopping bags, broken boxes , it made the restoration challenging to say the least

I agree. A clean workspace says a lot about the mechanic! Also you can go to bed at night without a stubbed toe!

Love the content!!! My Disco 3 hit 448k KM on a trip to Luderitz in Namibia. Still going strong.

Die unterschiedlichen Rückleuchten würden mich auch wahnsinnig machen…😂 Frohe Ostern euch beiden!

In conversation with my father in law this afternoon! And his neighbour victor had (pre text) the v6 jag and while climbing a steep hill in Yorkshire under 2000 rpm snapped the crank shaft!The car had 50k ish miles, just out of warranty they offered a really small kind gesture to put towards repair! The car had a replacement crank shaft in a back street garage with shit all over place and a box of bits in the boot!! 😮 On a happy note I've officially entered my mud life crisis and fit a new GOLD chain to my mtb! Radical!🤙❤👊

The news and politics in the UK and the world are so depressing, but this is just the perfect escape, thanks guys!

I love the snapping and popping noises as you lift the body, it always sounds worse than it is. It looks like such a fun process, and when its done you have so much access everything seems to be easier. Reminds me of the first time I worked on an E-type jaguar, sitting on a front wheel with a biscuit and a cup of tea as I measured the valve clearances. Happy days... Thank you, I'm always entertained, even when swinging between envy and the relief that it's not my problem. Happy Easter, sorry about your weather.

That wall of firewood is a testament to your foresight.

I totally agree on the workshop clean idea, untidy workshop means careless work in progress 😎

Ah yes, my favourite Sunday morning car fixing entertainment, thanks very much to you both…and Happy Easter!

And here goes another one .. I hope you don't tire of these for a while .. simply the best 😂 ... Happy Easter Christian & Vera

Practice makes perfect 😂 Sunday in Sydney doesn’t come soon enough to see your videos Keep up the good work good work ❤

My favorite KZread couple! Note on the winch cable binding, the “official way” is to insure that the front of the winches vehicle is exactly 90 degrees to the direction of pull, then you can use a shovel handle to push the cable during the pull left or right, as you lean on it like American “Cal Trans workers”, while you watch others do the work. It takes practice, but you can wind the cable on, to perfection. A synthetic cable will also bind if crossed on itself and crush itself if real force is used.

The highlight of the week, look forward to every Sunday morning. we need a weekday boost as we are suffering from LR Time withdrawal. yet again, this wonderful video Thank-you

" in and out and in the bedroom also." Quote of the week😂😂

It's strange that on my 2016 LR4, the viscous coupling fan is right handed thread. Anyway, a good friend once told me: You just need to check the fan fins direction, knowing they need to pull air toward the back and that will tell you the direction the fan turns. Since we also know the fan motion is tightening the bolt, you can easily deduce the thread direction for any cars. Great episode, can't wait to watch this new series! Cheers!

You are both just brilliant - happy Easter :)

I just love this channel!

Great work so organised!

Always worth watching.

Even if don't care about videos on working on cars, you got to love the entertaining banter of these 2. That is a huge job and you must have the patience of Job to do it.

Hi to both of you …i am now fully up to date with all your vids Evan the German speaking ones which i was able to follow for most of the time as i lived in Düsseldorf and Munster when my dad was in the Army ,,,so with out a doubt you are my favourite KZreadrs surpassing even M539 ,Funny how you both live in Germany..Also mabee a new name for you could be,,LR TIME CLICK CLICK. 😂👍 so keep the vids coming

Great to see the method you use to keep organised... A manual will tell you how to do the work.. But the organisation of the parts and bolts will allow you put it back together again.. I have wondered how you keep organised.. great video

Brilliant video 😊

You two work great together as a team...love the humour as well...👍👍

Great stuff!

Happy Easter from the 🇮🇲. Looking forward to this rebuild! Fantastic content as ever.

Have been looking forward to this, here we go guys ❤🎉

You need a Vera with every Discovery another great vid

Very enjoyable video thank you.

Es macht Freude, Ihnen bei der Arbeit zuzuschauen.

Another great episode.

Glad I found you both, excited I made it in time to start from the begining of this overhaul.

Another fun time with Christian and Vera.. as usual got to lie down so my brain can recover

Another fantastic video, Happy Easter to you all

Epic! Love a body off fault fix and reassembly series :-)

Great video and funny as always 👍🏻

Great video. Many thanks. I'm right with you on workshop tidiness/cleanliness. Cheers, Peter.

Travail très propre soigné et méticuleux , Félicitations

I can't express how much I enjoy watching your channel. Your humour is hilarious 😂😂❤❤

Vera is the best mechanics mate *****

I Love your workshop, and the lift and pit. what more could a man want? ....A Vera ! every good project needs a Vera!

Happy Easter - very well!! Well done both great job 👍

Fantastic start! Better than an easter egg this morning. No debacles yet!

Yeah I made that mistake once and once only with the spare tyre winch! Have a good easter Sunday and thanks for the great content!

Hello Christian and Vera. I love watching your videos. I am new to your channel. I love Toyota and Land Rover discovery too much but never wanted to buy one because I saw a lot of KZread videos where people had too much problems with their cars. But now watching you guys I can't wait to go buy me one. Thanks a lot for giving the courage to go and buy me one ❤❤❤

Vera and Christian you are Brilliant, most enjoyable humour, I call you the A team Brilliant, keep up the good work. Thank you. Regards Thomas

Great video thanks guys ❤

Nice Job! I concur on the organization of your shop. My shop has been disorganized for years, and I do crummy work all the time!

I absolutely love this channel. We were carried home by the RAC last week due to a blown apart CV joint. Wow, what a noise!

I enjoy your videos so much

Happy Easter love your work vera is a 1 of a kind wives well done love your banter❤

Not only Christian is the best Land Rover Technitian but Vera is the best Field Marshal he can count upon. Land Rover should keep you as the main advisory on tehnical matters. Why aren´t these videos posted twice a week? I can hardly wait for them every sunday. Merry easter.

You are so organised! Loved the parts in the plastic bags. Reminded me of the opposite approach when Jay Leno said 'I'm a measure once, cut twice sort of guy'.

11/10 as always 👏👏👏👏

Hi guys Thoroughly enjoy your videos and the chemistry between you , I’m watching from sunny 36c Thailand and would love a day of your weather , take care and happy Easter Regards Davy 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇹🇭

Guys that was absolutely brilliant. That is one of them jobs I have yet to do but have not too many electrical items not my strong point. Thanks and yes I have been to one of those garages where you nearly fall over everything as it's in the way I don't work that way either 😊👍

"Only in and out, like in the bedroom" 😂😂😂😂

‘It’s only in and out, like in the bedroom’ 🤣 You two are so funny. Keep up the great videos and banter, I always look forward to your videos on Sunday. 👍🏻

Another great video as always 😂❤ always entertaining and informative 👏 👍 Totally agree about workshop tidiness ❤. From a Toyota owner 😅

It’s interesting that you also know that it always gets colder at Easter when we get a holiday. It never fails. All the best from England and for looking after that poor little Land Rover .Just want to add that i do recall an Easter in the eighties when it was as hot as a hot summer day.

Another good video Christian and Vera enjoy your channel its agood job some dicovery 4 have been reliable but it is down to proper maintance and luck
