Description
Colossal creation based on Discovery V8 4x4 running
gear and widened Standard Twelve body; akin to something from Mad Max; dare
to be different!
What is it we hear you
cry? Well, monstrous, big, loud,
oddball and wonderful in a Mad Max kind of way? Yes, all of the
above.
Based upon the underpinnings and running
gear of a Discovery 1 meaning a proven 4x4 chassis and drivetrain with 3.9 fuel
injected V8 power and lots of noise, the mad-man who built it then thought ‘I
know, I’ll fit a Standard Twelve body on top’…..and then make it wider and
beefier!
The upper is, as we say, or was, a
Standard Twelve body that’s been helped to fit the Discovery underpinning with
massively flared arches, snorty snout with removable bonnet, finished in Cammo
colours with some simply huge wheels to fill the equally huge
arches.
Inside, we find a bespoke interior with
lightweight metal seats, Discovery auto transmission, custom dash and no rear
seats – instead we find some spare wheels.
The
vehicle is huge, imposing and unusual but starts promptly thanks to the
Discovery bits and sounds phenomenal, and, feels and sounds like it goes well
with a serious bark meaning it could prove to be usable, which all makes it
rather exciting.
The history file includes the
V5C which is for the Discovery showing twelve former owners to the current of
three years, one old MOT and a selection of bills for various parts and
works including a head gasket and bolt set in August 2016, performance HT leads,
plugs, water pump, timing chain and camshaft gears also in
2016.
No information is available regarding the
build, when or where it was done or by whom, however looking at it, clearly its
taken considerable work and money to create what we see before us.
Go on, be different, we dare
you!
