You can always tell a landrover owners driveway cant you?

mine I try to keep clean but I always have a pile of swept up mud in one corner as well as the little tell tale mud splats in the area that i park my motor.  I dont think the neighbours get too impressed when i wash my drive down!

i tend to have piles of rust and old bits of truck piled up in my drive.

at the mo i have a set of toyota wheels, an old suzuki exhaust and 4 old 33/1.50 tyres.

looks like a scrap yard at times.

I wasn't allowed to park the Discovery in the drive (when we moved) as we had it block-paved & it had the usual oil leaks.
Never used any, but it still leaked

The 110 is dry, but still has to park outside

Still haven`t got round to concreting the bit of drive where mine gets parked, so any leaks go unseen.
Then again changed the diff oils on the other bit and spilt some, so it got to mark its territory that way

My house I am moving into in a few weeks time as 1 car parking space that is gravel (for hiding the oil leeks) and another one that is tarmac (for working on the landy so I have more of a chance of finding nuts again)!!!

I will probably install an oil drip tray into the tarmac if it gets too bad!  :lol:
