United Kingdom 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Buckingham Blue

The overhang is much shorter than the Disco 2 I had, so I recon Bobtail is good, though you can have them shorter and almost have the wheels at the back..... 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

While it's obviously a well done build I don't think it's actually a bobtail... Just a pick up conversion. Have a Google for bobtail discovery and you'll see.


Do not worry it IS bobtailed, bear in mind this is a Series II Disco, not a Disco 1 (with a shorter overhang)

STOCK D2




CRAIG'S BOBTAIL, check the much shorter overhang

Bob tails involve shortening the rear to eliminate overhang and therefore maximise departure angle. From what I can see the rear end has the same overhang.


I'm wondering if I can get my Missus' backside 'bobtailed'.

it might help my departure angle too.
