What have you done to your Landie today.

Just finished fixing the door locks and handles on me defender, had bouts of randomly locking me in/out of it. Watching my mum climb out over the bulkhead and though the back door was funny but thought it was time to sort it out .
All fixed now but I don't see how they are so easy to steal took me an age to get the doors open :doh:

Finished off my drawer and cuboard - cooker is now housed in the drawer. Check my gallery for pics.

Fitted the leisure battery - although we discovered some surface rust in the battery box; sorted with 2 coats of hammerite.

Summer is on the way.........

wire brushed and painted that bar under the number plate in my previous post and ran some sand paper along where i hacksawed the valence off to clean that up the Pressurwased the car

Shedjim, how long did it take you to sort the rear lock out and have you any tips? Going to do mine next week.

Ah've just given the bus it's yearly wash

Applied some Hammerite to the rear tube bumper and towbar. Looks much better now!

If it's the rear door lock ye're on about mate, then ye need to remove the assembly. Once out, ye'll see a wee pin. Stick yer key in the barrel and remove the pin to take it out.
Here's a couple o' photies tae show what it looks like....

today I have.... bought my discovery 300tdi

Thanks Busterbus - that's the one.

Welcome adamjf and welldone.

Went out for my first greenlane in the disco went on my own with only A/T Tyres, so kept it easy was a dream, however an annoying rattle has occurred at 1500rpm. Sounds like exhaust or something underneath... Hmm, guess that's tomorrows job!
