Hello - Just bought myself a 110 as a rolling project / daily driver...

Thought I recognised the name, I've been to Stanford Hall before, we hired it out for two days for a work do a few years back, really nice place!

Looks like a great weekend, need to add a tent to the list now then!

is indeed a good event , have a whole field to ourselves,

went in 2015 , greenlaning was a great day out , being able to go off road and having others around just in case was really good , peace of mind

there's some videos as well on here of the greenlaning trip

welcome and as others have said layer after layer of security is a good way btw great looking beast you have there

Sounds like a good place to start for some off road fun, I've never had a car capable of mounting a curb let alone greenlaning so I'm a total rookie in that respect.

Definitely going to sort a tracker, maybe take my steering wheel with me everywhere and get some sort of pedal lock then! A good security measure is that reverse and 1st are pretty much indistinguishable at the minute lol

Dude you stole half my username lol

Nah, anyway, welcome to the forum and nice looking LR

Oh yeah should probably mention the flat4 is because of my aircooled addiction...

I've got a bug



And an RX7 (I like rotaries too)


And no neither of them work lol

If it is bacterial, antibiotics might deal. If it is a virus, you will just have to wait until it goes away!

Anyways back to the Landy....

Got home to a rather moist interior... need to sort the sunroof asap!

You reckon you have got problems, I have had landrovers for about 31 years!

That's a nice looking Landy.. If a car like that ever came up for sale over here, there would literally be fights over who bought it.

Ha! My flat was due to my habit of buying old air cooled dubs years ago. The name kinda stuck

Pah, call that a garden?

Guess mine was more of a shrubbery

Welcome to Laalazone. That just looks the dogs dodahs. You might think of selling that saplings to the forestry commission to pay for some of the repairs . But what a fine looking vehicle.

Your definitely going to need to get rid of the cheese wires, before your front steel work flips some unfortunate older lady in the general direction of the bonnet. The mess on the windscreen will take an awful lot of cleaning.

Who ever built it spent significant amount of cash and had very good taste.

Sorry Flat4matt, forget to say that you should find a pakamak somewhere inside the vehicle to keep you dry. You really have to sort out the security. That's got to be one of the most desirable "downer" vehicles around, and a serious find for the LR tea leafs .

and yes I think I'll get a tracker on it sharpish given what you guys have said already!

Skytag, decent alarm, Disklok, steel 5mm pedal guard....the list goes on mate. My advice is to start with that lot before you spend anything else on it.

Cool looking 'Fender

Thanks for all the kind words, as soon as I saw it I knew I had to have it, like you say though I'll not be the only one thinking that so security is top of the list!

I'll get those granny slicers off the front then, shame as they look awesome

I'd really like to figure out a way of stopping the sunroof leak beyond a jacket / umbrella as it's dripping right where the top of my head is and the other stream lands in the general crotch area haha...The trouble is the seals gone (easy enough) but the catch / latch is broken so might need to find a replacement...

Could always blank it with a sheet of metal I guess?

Or use Tiger Seal and seal it shut which is what I did !
