Advice for a novice off roader

[godzilla84]

Just bought my first 4x4 (1996 discovery 300tdi) with the intention of taking it green laning around the north west and im after some advice about what modifications I need to make and prioritise so that i can tackle anything more than a muddy field.

Also does anywhere fun (legal) to go green laning near liverpool?

Any advice will be greatly apreciated!!

im saving the cash for tyres at the moment, im budgeting about £300. glad you mentioned underbody protection that was one thing I had overlooked.

Im not likely to go alone, my mate just bought a dico "monster truck" ready made but he is just as much of a novice as me so i thought i would get some advice from people in the know before hand.
