As well as a project update, the boys delve into the new issue of Land Rover Monthly magazine, which is on sale in shops now, and give some background into the workings of the magazine and the events that LRM runs.
The boys reminisce about a record Ripon Autojumble, and debate whether to take absolutely everything or as little as possible when out camping.

In this episode, Martin is in a beer garden with Ian Arthur from Howden Classic, having just dragged a forlorn Discovery 2 from its resting place in a field.
As the two enjoy a crisp cider (joined by many seagulls) they talk about the Discovery in question, and how the deciding factors on what makes a viable project vehicle have changed from a sound chassis to making sure all the hard-to-find parts are there and the interior and bodywork are as tidy as possible.
Martin has a moment of tyre snobbery, and Ian ponders the future of the freshly-rescued Discovery. Be sure to check out Ian's podcast too – A Pint of Petrol.
