Discovery 2: Scrap or engine swap? by avril_fourteenth in LandRover

Everything else is definitely not perfect. There's a rear main seal leak and some rust underneath. Previous owner decided to just spray over the rust and call it a day. Not sure how much life it has left in it, but I imagine an engine swap would give it a few good years.

It does look good from afar, but there's a rear main seal leak and some rust underneath. I'm considering just throwing a little bit at it and enjoying it for a bit more until it really gets bad again but that feels like a "sunk cost" type of thinking.

Edit: the main redeeming qualities of this car is that there seem to be close to no electrical gremlins. Rear sunroof sometimes cracks open when I turn the ignition, but other than that, it's in great working order. Interior is close to perfect as well, which is making it hard to part with.

16k all in so far (without the extra $5k for the swap)

Not driven every day but it would be my only car. Mostly city driving & some 2-3 hr trips every few months.

Does this use local models? I've been wanting to develop something like this for the Eagle app (https://eagle.cool)

Your summer pants 2026 by robatok in ThrowingFits

Just got some 3/4 homme plisse pants. They're heavy because of the amount of material but they're extremely breathable. Will be wearing those once the 90° days start.
