Hello thought I would introduce myself,

My name is Brendan and I live in Tonbridge in Kent, I currently own a 1987
Range Rover 3.5 v8, which I have owned sine may this year, it came armed
with a shed full of spare(good job too), from someone who told me to look
after it as it was well looked after, !yeah right!
I bought a welder from eBay, completely replaced the pass floor pan but
still needs outer sills both sides, rear floor d/s, I have put 4 newish a/t
tyres on it, it's got an oil leak,p/a/s leek but it doesn't matter as I sort
of new what needed doing but not to that extent, but any way that is me and
my car(the beast),
so I might be asking for advice and hopefully I can lend my fun and
experience with my car to others

Cheers Bren

Hi Bren

Welcome to the group. You'll find a lot of help on here, and some nice
people - some with great expertise and a lot of valuable experience, some
less so but interesting all the same. It's about the most even-tempered
group I read, with a high signal-to-noise ratio.

Look out for the initiation ceremony, involving a blindfold, a goat, and a
pint of EP90.

Cheers

Have we got a replacement goat now, then?

You forgot the bit about the barbed wire nipple-clamps and the
counselling sessions every 4th Thursday...

i managed to escape this ceremony, which i am very grateful for as there is
nothing i hate more than the smell of diff oil.

unfortunately i will not be able to help with rangies, although some day i
wouldn't mind owning one. But there are many others here that seem to know
them

Sam.

Yes, delivered from Goats'R'Us yesterday. Not as pretty as the last one,
but you can't have everything.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhh! Idiot!

Ah yes. Indeed. Personally, I prefer being in a cold wet field in October
with a few Landy nutters, a couple of 101s and a barbecue but, as I say, you
can't have everything.

Yup Hi Bren,

Welcome aboard!

The Knuckle Nurse vists once a fortnight and the Plastic card shreader is in
the corner. Every now and then we have a ritual burning of Money session,
usually followed by some scrub the driveway therapy. Oh and congratulations
on getting a Rangie that has clearly accepted you as worthy!

We'll look forward to seeing you at the next Southern ROC RTV trial,
then.
Rout Farm, Warninglid. Just off the bottom of the M23, on Sunday
December 11th.

Gordon (look for the green 90)

 
Cheers for that but please be gentle on me

..... and I thought that the warm, sunny and mostly dry field in October
was great (if a little noisy overnight), but you can't please everybody.

T'was a tad noisy at times - I'm surprised we didn't get complaints
from the Ravers...

My original statement still stands. In other words, if it *had* been wet
and cold, I would *still* have preferred it.
