Been meaning to do this for years. Just found a four pack bundle on Amazon for £14 delivered. Let's hope I don't go river plunging between now and Wednesday!

Started to fit some sound pads and insulation to the roof of the Ninety. Insulation just sat in place at the moment.

Farewell….

Repalced the electric fan relay.
Replaced battery isolator with a better make
Replaced 2 number plate bulbs
Fitted the winter radiator cover
Made sure every thing works for mot next week
Emptied the rear of wood/fridges/tvs etc down local tip.
Collected 8 bales of shavings for the horse

Tidy up the dash with clutter the mrs has thrown in on passenger side

Enjoyed the driving it today

Thank heavens for that. Thought @slomofo had smacked his head, gone all loons and sold the Land Rover!

replaced bonnet release cable on the 110 , fiddly job made harder by a full width intercooler, still got it done and bonnet now opens sweetly!!
also bought an A bar for the front bumper with spotlight mounts, perfect condition, 25 quid of FB marketplace. just got to see if it can get the bumper bolts out without them snapping!! and then buy some spots!

both statements are true

Fitted my nice new battery to the 90. Had some fun and games with the previous owner’s split charge system and his use of metric and whitworth fittings. Cleaned up the earth points and the cable where the terminals join. Looks like it worked.

I was on a roll so I decided I’d fit the cubby box. However, I had issues removing the seat frame for the middle seat so that’s a job for another day… . But the 90 is good to go just in time for the cold weather so I’m happy!

And you have just found the annoying passenger draught…
The rubber grommet is missing(used to have a hand throttle there) and was partially covered by fuse box cover.

Gave it a big hug… like I do every day!
