Rebuilding my 300tdi 110 csw and was wondering what polybush kit should I buy? Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you. I think I have followed the instructions for bleeding and it still is not working. Do u fill the expansion tank to the fill level or to the throat? As you say it seems air locked and I can't remove it.

Having bought a disco and like driving it I thought I better fix the heater and cooling system. When I bought it I was told it overheated it was fixed temp but you could do 30miles at about 50mph. The heater wasn't working and had been bypassed. It started to overheat after about 2 miles so I...

Thank you.

I have a 1989 90 TD and I have been toying with the idea of turning it into a soft top. Does anyone know the expected cost, suppliers or how to go about this? Is it possible to buy a complete kit?

I buy and sell the odd vehicle and all items are factored into the price I pay and the price I sell for. Ask any dealer things that go with the vehicle are included in the valuation.

It was the princely sum of £400!

Not sure about that. Tyres do factor into the price of a vehicle. Would you pay as much for a vehicle that needs a set of tyres?

Thank you. Will have a look

Just bought a 1988 90 2.5td to get me about while I am working on my 300tdi. What are people's thoughts on these and what problems to look out for? Wasn't expensive and tested for another 4 months. Heater isn't working, any ideas of where to look first to try and repair?

Looking a DVD similar to long way round or long way down only land rover based. Any recommendations?

I found him on eBay but cannot get in contact as the site will not allow it so if anyone has contact details that would be great.

Tonight we finished taking off the rear tub and the bulkhead. These both came off easier than I thought they would. The bulkhead needs quite a bit off work so I don't know if I should repair, buy another one in better condition or a galv one? Opinions would be great or if anyone has one they...

Tonight I took off the wings and the seat box and made a bit of a start on the rear tub. We then gave the shed a bit of a tidy and took all the bits out. Hopefully another couple of nights and I will just have the engine and box sitting on the chassis. Here are another couple of pics...
