So we could be just about in it then as the car weighs about 1.2 tonne and the trailer is about .75 of a ton. Would have to put it on a weighbridge to be sure. ;)

There comes a time when yer has to fink issit worth towing a second car all that way. She may want to drive it but want and need are different fings. The trip would be easier wivvoot the tow.

They increased the towing limit on the FL2 at some point. It will be in the sales brochures in me sig.

Ok, tonight's dumbo question.
Brushless,
replaceable brushes,
non- replaceable brushes.

How can you tell?
I can see how you could see two black plassy plugs where the replaceable brushes could be got at to be changed, but wot if there ain't none?

Do you have to have the fing physically in your hand or can you read it up on the paperwork or ont tinternet?

Just asking! ;)

Tells yer int spec normally.
 
Was looking at the web for me sand paper. Lot of em on screwfix and toolstation delivery only. Bnq simular. Went to bnq and din't have me sanding belts in the size eye need. Not much selection. Somefink eye has noticed across all the hardware ootlets. Too much buying online from ware houses. Tis a shame to see em struggling. Was miffed over the sand paper so eye din't get me sander. Did have a look at it. Will pick one up anuvva time. The base is made oot of a strong foam pad. 4 or 5 holes innit each side in a straight line for dust sucking. Ended up at toolstation for a roll of 120 and 240 grit and some 120 grit belts. Belts were made by trend. Rolls are cheaper ones but yer can't complane under 5 sovs fer 5 meters each.
 
Av gorra go. Eye hassa nooker table to make. Eye has redesigned me finking on the corners into the pockets. Size was a concern. Eye were making em too small by not taking into account the custion strip. Eye wanted to make em a bit smaller to replicate the pocket to size ratio of a 12 foot table onto one 2 furds of the size. Yer hafter get the bends, width and drop bit setup right to wurk wiv each other or it won't wuk and yer balls rattle int pockets too often.

Thanks for this. although I'm not in the market for one at the mo!
on replaceable brushes, looks like real poop to me, but then I keep everything forever.
My ex s-i-l STILL cannot believe that I am still using his discarded Dewalt drill.
But then it was built in the days when they bothered to make a lot less of it out of plastic and more out of steel or ally.;)

Think ur right up to around 2016 when the other newer models were being launched but I don’t think by much

Still impressed on a few models of how quick some of there 0.60 mph times are considering there weights , mines around 8 x seconds and then some of the petrol FFRR I think are just under 6x seconds but of course that’s just splitting hairs 🤣

Do wish Land Rover had continued to build models - designs individually so they had character and not like them today of being much of the same

these days there’s nothing really to replace the D4 / FL2 or defender in a similar guise , of course understand to make them more modern but in narrowing stages instead of drastic ones that they’ve done and by doing so think it’s put a lot of people off the brand in going to another brand

Casing point in the G Wagon of don’t fix what’s not broke

Sorry I’m waffling again 🤣
