The LRM Podcast

In this week's episode, Martin and Steve are back on the Salmon Sofa to waffle on about Land Rovers. Martin has finished his One Ten's 200Tdi engine conversion, and is keen to test it.

He's also gone and picked up a piece of Land Rover memorabilia that has been living with a friend for over 12 years, and is very happy to have it back. Got any cool Land Rover shed decorations? Send us an email on [email protected]

Steve wonders about the best way to wire up his Penman trailer's lights to finally get rid of the trailer board off the back, and the pair discuss the possibility of a road trip to Norway this year.

In this week's podcast, the boys are in Martin's kitchen to chat all things Land Rover, cheese board, fig roll and Yorkshire pudding.

With the festive food chat out of the way, Martin reports on his trip to Wales in the Discovery XXXV (on Pirelli Scorpion road tyres...) and it's all good news.

There's also speculation on why Ingenium engines fail in some models more than others, and a project update to enjoy.

In this week's episode, Martin and Steve are heading back to Newbury to pick up Steve's Defender 90 from AllMakes where it's had some repairs after blazing trails at Newbury Showground for the brand-new Big Land Rover Fest.

The pair talk modern refinement vs. annoying technology, the styling of the current range and of course keep an eye out for any Green Oval gems along the way – and the roads do not disappoint!

From all of us here at LRM, have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

In this episode, Martin and Steve recap on last week's important work – building the off-road course for LRM Fest! Martin's Series III picks up some "character", and Steve's 90 liked Newbury so much that it's still there.

Elsewhere, the boys discuss galvanised chassis care, and debate whether Land Rovers should be used throughout winter or tucked away for the colder months – a subject that's sure to divide opinion!

Feature of the Week and Product of the Week are back, and there's exciting news for L322 owners.

In this week's episode, Martin and Steve dive into the topic that's been on everyone's lips for the last couple of weeks – the departure of Gerry McGovern from JLR.

The pair look at some of the big hits of his career with the brand, and wonder what shape the company would have been in without his influence on design.

There's also some cracking Listeners' Questions and feedback from the hotel the boys are staying in ahead of Chris McCormack from Oak Ridge Engineering's 40th birthday. Happy Birthday Chris!

In this episode, Martin and Steve are joined by Mat Allcroft – AKA Fitter Mat – to react to your unpopular Land Rover opinions.

Is the Isuzu Trooper better than a Discovery 300Tdi? Do you need mud-terrains to do the NC500? Can Defenders actually be made good to drive? Is the Grenadier the Defender Land Rover should have made? Okay, we all know the answer to the last one, but there's lots of other unpopular opinions crammed into this episode of The LRM Podcast.

The latest issue of Land Rover Monthly is on sale today! As well as Fitter Mat's guest column it's packed with other great, fresh Land Rover content – and you'll also get Land Rover Life, and a stunning 2026 calendar!

In this week's episode, Martin and Steve are back on the Salmon Sofa for a good old yarn about Land Rovers and what's gone on in their weeks.

Steve is back from the NEC Classic Car Show (we're late to the party, we know) and has lots of auction results to talk about, including the world's most expensive Freelander.

The pair give a preview on next year's events, including the British Restoration hall at the Malvern Autojumble event at Malvern in February, and wax lyrical about the huge boost a couple of hours cleaning can give to your Land Rover's cabin.

Steve has had a Discovery 5 for the week, and has plenty to say about it – including playing a guessing game on how much each optional extra costs.

In this week's episode, Martin is on location for a Land Rover Monthly magazine photoshoot in deepest Leicestershire, with military vehicle restorers and owners of many interesting Land Rovers, Joe Hewes and Jack Westaway from the Mr Hewes YouTube channel: youtube.com/@mrhewes

Kicking off with Jack's preference for Discoverys over Defenders and his recipe for the perfect Disco 2, the boys also explain why only some of the Land Rovers that were meant to be included in the photoshoot were actually driveable on the day.

Joe talks us through his main Land Rover, an ex-utilities 2012 Defender 110, and the Mercedes OM606 engine conversion that he had done in collaboration with Luke Dale at DieselPumpUK.

There's also a bit of background about the success of the Mr Hewes YouTube channel, in which the guys revive and restore military vehicles of all shapes and sizes, and the challenges they face along the way. You can expect to see the full story in the February issue of LRM magazine.

In this episode, Martin and Steve are joined by Adam Wormleighton (@adamtwrm) to chat Range Rover L322s and everything to do with them. From the finest era of the model to how it compares to the later L405 and L460 eras.

Adam's brought with him a Land Rover dealer Autobiography book, which is a source of much excitement to Martin and Steve. A total thing of beauty – check out a few snaps of it on socials.

Adam relays his experience of shopping for a Range Rover, suffering many discount used car lots with slightly dishonest ads, before finding a real gem in the used Range Rover world, where he bought his lovely example from.

There's chat about Adam's recent holiday, and the untimely breakdown of his Discovery 4... as well as his history with Land Rovers and other recent projects that he's taken care of, and a quick tip for making NATO green a bit more show-ready.
