The Land Rover is the sort of car that you buy and never fall out of love with, no matter how much drama it gives you and no matter how much work it needs. A popular brand among those who love their cars and who want to get their cars into the best condition possible, Land Rover has legions of fans both here in South Africa and aboard.
All Land Rovers come off of the factory floor with various built in features that make the vehicle capable of easily traversing the deserts, mountains, rivers and forests that it has been designed to take on. But while the Land Rover is made for tough roads and challenges, there are some things that you can do to your Land Rover to take its performance, and its looks, to the next level.
At Traxpa, we are committed to helping our clients make the most of their Land Rover, by stocking a selection of Land Rover parts and accessories. We source our products from approved companies and we make them available online, via our webstore. Along with selling a range of accessories, we can also give you great advice that you can use when improving your car.
What you can do to improve your Land Rover
While there are some more advanced things that you can do to improve your car, the best place to start is with the smaller, more common touch ups and additions. And keep in mind that the work that you do to your Land Rover will not only be useful for you, but it will also add some value to your vehicle should you decide to one day sell it.
- Add a roof rack
Roof racks are quite a popular feature and they are one of those things that both look great and are a wonderful, functional addition. The roof rack is really easy to fit and once it is up, you will instantly increase your load capacity, giving you the extra space you might be needing for your next holiday. Modern roof racks are light weight and they are quite aerodynamic.
- Add lights
You don’t necessarily need extra lights, but they do make driving around a whole lot easier, especially when you are travelling off road and need better visibility. Certain additional lights can also add quite a lot of character to the vehicle.
- Add a new tow bar
Most Land Rovers come with a standard tow bar but you can replace it with something more fitting. There are plenty of interesting options out there and these days you can even get a detachable option.
- Add a snorkel
Nothing says that you take your Land Rover seriously and that you like to go off road with it, than adding a snorkel. Snorkels make it possible to take the vehicle into deeper waters, so such an addition is not essential unless you are having these sorts of adventures quite often.
- Add underbody protection
The Land Rover was made to go off road, which means it can get a few bumps along the way. To prevent the car from taking a knock and being badly damaged, you can consider adding underbody protection. This sort of addition comes in a variety of shapes and sizes, so it will help to do some research to find the type most suitable to your needs.
