Converted for Midtown Madness 2 by Franch88


ABOUT ME

Hi to all. I'm Franch88, the author of this very good Land Rover Discovery 3 conversion for Midtown Madness 2. I'm in the great world community of this great game from June 2007, to give help in the MM2X forum; actually I'm the forum and the website administrator there. You can found me also in the forum of the great HQTM-Team, in the MM2C forum, in the forum of MM2 Riva, in the team Madness Revived and in the team MM2 Color. My website about my MM2 releases is www.mm2x.com/franch88/.
This is my thirty-third realization for this game, and I wish to you a good driving with my conversion and have fun. ;)


BRIEF CAR HISTORY (from Wikipedia, edited)

The Discovery is a four wheel drive on-road and off-road vehicle from the British car maker Land Rover. The Discovery was introduced in the late 1980s and is the most popular model from Land Rover. The Discovery Series III is marketed in North America as the LR3.
On 2 April 2004, owners Ford Motor Company introduced a new Discovery 3 (or LR3 in North America) for the 2005 model year. The Discovery 3 was an entirely new design, sharing not a single component with the outgoing model. Its styling is still traditional Land Rover, with function dictating the look, rather than fashion, and with lots of horizontal and vertical lines. It retains the key features of the Discovery, such as the stepped roofline and steeply-raked windscreen.
The engines used in the Discovery 3 were all taken from Land Rover's sister company, Jaguar. A PSA Peugeot-developed 2.7 litre, 195 HP V6 diesel engine was intended to be the biggest seller in Europe. For the US-market and as the high-performance option elsewhere, a 4.4 litre petrol V8 of 300 HP was chosen. The gearboxes on the Discovery 3 were also all-new. For the diesel engine, a 6-speed manual gearbox was standard. As an option, and as standard on the V8 engine, a 6-speed automatic transmission was available.
