Aye, I've watched a few of his vids .... :) He seems right enough - though I wouldn't fancy living with all the salt the put on the roads over winter in Quebec :eek: Think my D1 would dissolve while I was watching :eek::eek::eek:

For a few months now, I've been watching this guy's Youtube channel. Have a look - Britannic Restorations

He's British but now has a small workshop in Qubec. Quite entertaining and lots of info. for fixing your Land Rover

I've been watching him for ages, I am waiting for him to finish the Vortec conversion currently, the miss firing 2.5 n/a was interesting viewing.

Another one on my watch list is the chuckee2009 welding channel, he is a hay farmer now but it was fun to watch him grow up from a spotty teen doing a welding qualification through college to his money making projects and moving to Texas.

Chuckee2009! I've watched him too. He was quite young at the time. I'll look him up again.

I reckon we should promote Mike at Britannica Restorations and get him some more viewers. Maybe even sort out a group buy for his modified clutch forks. Not that I need one but I'm sure plenty will. I feel I owe him something for the ongoing tuition!

I'm waiting for his t-shirts.
 
Yup, I watch him too. Shame the raccoon decided to leave, but probably just as well, I doubt an adult would have been a tolerable pet.
His analysis of Defender door seal suppleness was interesting. The 2.5 is still not running right.
 
Just found this blokes Videos recently , he is Good Very Good, Sometimes think he is really James Martin in Disguise, he is that good. :)
His vids are easy to follow, as he takes his time in explaining things.
 
I've been watching Mike for years! He needs more Discos on his channel. ;)
Anyone who can sit and talk Land Rovers while petting a raccoon is a bad ass in my book. lol

Sadly due to North American (inc Canada) import regs Mike never gets to work on a TD5. He sees plenty of 200 and 300 Tdis, but his Discos are always V8.
 
Only one I have seen is him stripping and rebuilding a PAS box. It was brilliant. A very, very clever man.
 
Yeah I have been binge watching lately. Landy Lee put me back onto him.......

I've seen all his vids. I've learnt a lot from his 90 restoration series. He even did a video on my request the other week, the sill fitting vid.

Your moment of fame!
I like the way he works - sometimes seemingly bumbling along sometimes pure genius.:D

I too would cringe at all the salt they have to deal with!
