I have been offered 2 discos last month one was £300 Tdi HGF and one wanted £500 biut it had some MOT left and wasn't too bad. I was tempted with the first one as I may have got it for 250 as I know I coulda sold the diffs but the rest of the car was worthless to me. Gearbox most probably scrap worn splines tranny box what they go for now not alot and nowhere to strip it. gave up on the idea. I guess they are holding their value because of the snow but hey I didn't realise that they were going for so much these days. I know Series prices have taken off and defenders have a strong hold.

Who the ****ing do you think you are. I am fully road legal. and so is my truck. and for your information i was not bragging at all. So i have no idea where you got that from. why don't you crawl under that rock you came from and mind your own bussiness. The L plates belong to my wife. Prat is that the best you could come up with.

thankyou for some of your views. Yes the insurance company know, about all my modifications. The number plate was attached to front of the vehicle, at the time.
As it turns out it is only minor damage. New slam panel, new bonnet, new n/s front wing, 4 new radiators, and front lights. It is all stripped ready for the repair work to be done. There is no chassis damage. and the ugly bumper is okay. So minor work. A couple of days work if that.

if the l plates belong to your wife and she was sitting by the side of you i am afraid you did not set a very good example i strongly suggests that she takes lessons from a QUALIFIED DRIVING INSRUCTOR!!!! from what has been said you were probably travelling too close for the conditions,, but saying that we all make mistakes and fortunatley no one was hurt other than a little dented pride perhaps, hope you get it fixed and sorted asap, i wish no offence by my post but i have been involved in vehicle salvage for some years and have seen what damage is done by so called good drivers that travel too close usualy ending in fatalities the last one i attended was a people carrier which had two kids in the back hit from behind by a transit van , the driver of the van was shaken two kids in the back of the car died,, so please people take care and drive carefully. END OF LECTURE!!! ron.

Its a lorkel. Its a light and a snorkelIn picture 3 it looks like you've got a lamp post for a snorkel.
How did you fit that - always thought they were heavy but yours appears light
Technicaly no part of a vehicle is meant to protrude more than 2" from the bumpers. I belive thats one of the reason for landys to have the old grab handles on the rear as the tow hitch sits flush,
As said L plates are a no noi unless you a being a gent and covering for the missus.
When you say truck do you mean 7.5ton+ vehicle or another 4x4. if its a 7.5ton+ then you defo wernt looking or far too close.
Glad no one was injured thou thats a main thing metal and plastic can be welded and bought but people cant .
