    What money should I be asking?

    Agree.. you can buy a 3 k defender and spend 30 k on it and you wont have a 33k defender. Its a given you will NEVER make your money back on it, which is fine as you have built it for your needs/likes etc. Stick it on eBay and keep the address well hidden...and you will get what its...

    Learning to fix Land Rovers like a pro - career advice wanted

    There has probably never been a better time to learn from the internet with hi def videos. You can always set yourself up recording as you do things as well. The degree and education will REALLY help if you need a loan/credit facilities/mortgage for when you go into business if you wanted.

    Learning to fix Land Rovers like a pro - career advice wanted

    Electrics Wot wire size

    Electrics Wot wire size

    Non Land Rover - I have a fuel pump harness which is knackered. I have some wiring from Halfords which is 8 amp. My fuel pump is 7 amp. Is that ok to fit or do I need to go a lot higher ? Is there a chart anywhere for UK sizing amp vs wire size ?

    CHATGPT - Learnings

    So ChatGPT, what is it ? An AI based Q&A session which is free (odly) and often called out for mistakes. So at work we have a director who is very good and she is also very non technical. They have this thing where they have to give a talk on something new they did that month for a couple of...
