My truck passed its MOT today.

It looks a right state with faded paint and bodywork damage but the mechanic complimented it on being mechanically sound and was even shocked at the low emmisions, they were 0.18, the maximum allowed is 1.5

Shows what a good service can achieve.

Only problem was a brake light, the only thing I forgot to check, so for £5.99 I brought one and tried to change it there, but after 10 minutes struggling he gave me a pass as he knew the first thing I'd do is get the holder back in.

Had to take the rear seat out and half hour after getting home it was done. Why couldn't it be a simple fix like a wheel bearing or something! :lol:

Picked up my Disco TD5 today

WELL CHUFFED!

Just needs a full machine polish and correction. Few little plastic bits sorting and a couple of panel gaps adjusting. Will move across the cb, light bar, wind deflectors and my front steel bumper over the coming weeks.

This is going to be a road car so not offroading for this one!

Why buy a disco then
Should have got yourself a gaylander if your not going off road

I bet its on a green lane within the month......

Already has been on a lane Had to test the suspension didn't I??? Some nice lanes around Birmingham

In terms of the gaylander...... far too small and far too gay

TD5 one it has been fiddled will be great for towing. Seems a lot more refined than the 300 which is to be expected. For the extra money; it was worth spending!

Full main dealer history and everything lol.

But no, the intention is not to lane it (until everything has been checked ).

Very nice Matt when we arranging a days laning to get it all scratched up

Does the LRO Peterborough show have a good auto jumble? And is anyone planning on going on the Sunday?
I'm karting Saturday but fancy going up and having a butchers as its not far away

 

[Brian S]

Yes and yes. I took my trailer and all my spares up last year. They have a lot of 2nd hand stuff.

I want to go Sunday and do the off road course.

 

[Drizz]

I should really take a van load of stuff up but you miss the show doing that!

Yep I could be up for a day there, want to do the course as well.

 

[Co-Pang-Yang]

Haven't got much to sell but be nice to have a look around. Only thing I really want is a tank guard with removable hitch but I don't expect to see one of them lol

 

[Co-Pang-Yang]

Oh and a set of 33's going for £100 :lol:

 

[Drizz]

Keeping it for now then?

 

[Co-Pang-Yang]

Depends, it I get a good offer I'll sell it. It's the hassle of selling it and finding a replacement car that I can't be arsed with. Plus it'll cost more cause no doubt I'll but something that's worth more and more to insure

 

[matthew2riches]

No

Could include my stuff on the same plot, share the plot cost and take turns to wander.

 

[Discodad]

How much is a pitch. Couldn't see it listed on the ticket sales page.

 

[Brian S]

I think my landy and trailer was something like £50 for the day last year.

Best check though, I could be wrong.

Will try and google it later.

 

[Discodad]

I had a look yesterday and couldn't see it listed?
I'm booked in (and have paid) for sudbury to the sea that weekend.

But could do with making some money.

 

[Brian S]

What is Sudbury to the sea?
