The Discovery 4 has not been built since 2016, but is already a vehicle that, due to its special features and truly exceptional characteristics, has a very large fan base worldwide that continues to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Hardly any other vehicle interprets the term “versatility” better than a Discovery: space, performance, comfort and off-road qualities are combined in the Discovery in an almost perfect way in a visually almost unique “classic-cornered” off-road vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


But true to the community saying: “The square one belongs in the dirt!” (german spelling) the Discovery is also very often driven there – precisely because it can do that so well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Logically, the underbody can suffer from this. For this reason, we regularly receive inquiries from owners of their vehicles asking us to restore their Discovery and preserve it for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Quote from a customer email: “I’ve been driving the Discovery for 8 years and 300,000km now and I want to drive it for another 8 years and 300,000km.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n


As a specialist for off-road vehicles, we offer something like this, of course. Here we offer a small insight into how something like this can look.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The working steps are roughly summarized as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. separation of frame and bodywork<\/li>
  2. cleaning of the complete underbody<\/li>
  3. removal of rust<\/li>
  4. repair of damage to the frame or underbody<\/li>
  5. priming of the entire frame<\/li>
  6. preservation of the whole frame with special paint<\/li>
  7. assembly<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The cost of such underbody preservation is about 3.000\u20ac – depending on the amount of repair work to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
