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.
