Thread: My disability modified Discovery 2

Howdy folks I know a lot of you here know my story and that of my cars unique features, but thought making a thread showing it in all its glory, could be both Educational and interesting. So much of the world doesn't understand disability and driving. Lord knows I get a lot of abuse parking my landie in disability parks as folks think that we only drive vans, or can only be driven in vans or not drive at all, god forbid we reverse gosh I've had it all.
I've had this car 11 years in January. Its been a wild ride and I was not going to give it up due to disability. I am a full time wheelchair user. (You'll never hear me say "wheelchair bound" I hate that term and wish media would stop using it. We are wheelchair freed, they are chariots of freedom and a positive thing in life)
Its amazing the assistive technology available to allow those to drive through so many different disabilities. But this is what's in this humble Landrover.
(Will be video links here to show them)
The old girl has, an electric tailgate easily the best feature.
Fadiel E-Radial hand controls which can also be found in Ferrari (yes there are wheelchair folks driving supercars- any car can be a disability car)

It is a process to drive with these things. There's assessments to find the right driving aids, driving lessons with them, test to pass to then be set free on the world with them.

If you have read through and even watched some of my videos, Thankyou My beloved Disco is very unique and currently only car I can physically and legally drive in my world

I love that not a wheelchair thing. Have followed them for a long time, from when he was even first with his lady. It's a crazy machine. Definitely would be battery one is best as it's hard going on bodies using arms to get about so need as much power as possible. *🦽
