The LRM Podcast

In this week's episode, Martin and Steve are live from The Billing Off Road Show!
Joining them on the salmon sofa are LRM Fest Mud & Media guests, Defender Ames and Maizee Davies, aka The Yellow Defender for chat about converting a Defender to a pop-top, and preparations for The Big Land Rover Fest.
Also joining them are Harry, Chloe and Oakley from The Landy Expedition – a couple (and now toddler) who have spent a lot of time travelling in their Defender 110. They talk about how preparing the vehicle overseas has been beneficial, and the ins and outs of overlanding including how to stay out of trouble when confronted with potential conflict.

In this week's rather warm episode, Martin and Steve are joined once again by Greg King. The guys have been busy working on Steve's "not brown" Ninety project, and have taken an hour to sit and chat about what's been going on.
Ex-JLR employee and engineer Greg King imparts some interesting knowledge on how the classic Defender was put together back in the day, including some methods used during assembly and how you can implement them in your own Defender rebuild.
Elsewhere, the guys answer a listener's question on how to purchase a good secondhand Tdi engine for his 110 Tithonus, and debate why Steve has chosen the wrong engine for his project.

In this week's episode, Martin and Steve settle in to answer a round of your questions!
They've been promising it for ages, but it's finally happening – the boys start to work through the stack of questions that you've been sending in over the last few months. They apologise for the delay...
From the best all-round Land Rover on a £4000 budget to one listener's quandary on whether to sell or keep his brand-new-in-box Fairey overdrive and plenty more in between, buckle up for an hour of your questions being answered – round two coming soon.

In this week's episode, Martin and Steve are back in the studio after quite some weeks away.
There's a big update on Steve's 1985 90 build including body alignment and sourcing genuine parts, and another day in the diary to drive the project even further towards that all-important finishing line. Will the burgundy 90 make it to Fest? Only time will tell...
Elsewhere, the boys recap a cracking day at the off-road course for the Big Land Rover Fest, including testing all different shapes and sizes of Land Rover on the course – everything from a £500 Freelander to a £100,000 Range Rover and plenty in between.
Finally, Martin buys a new barbecue, and reports back on his adventures shopping for yet another Freelander 2. It's all go go go!

In this week's episode, Land Rover Monthly editor Martin Domoney grabs an hour with Ben Barker at Motor and Diesel Engineering.
From the very early days of Perkins diesel converting classic Range Rovers to developing the latest complete drop-in conversion kits for all manner of Land Rover including fitting ULEZ-compliant petrol engines into Defenders.
Ben mentions his early Land Rover One Ten County Station Wagon, which may well be giving its 2.25 petrol four-cylinder for rather more modern power, while the mods will remain fully reversible.
The 300Tdi gets some serious upgrades at Motor and Diesel, with one of their most popular conversions being a conversion to 2.8 litres – more power and torque especially when combined with one of M&D's variable nozzle turbochargers.
Ben is also quick to sing the praises of his Discovery 4 – on 170,000 miles on its original engine and driven hard every day, despite needing yet another park brake module...
