    UK return for an Afirrcan Overland truck

    SA could be your best bet. Can you claim the Kenyan duty back if you perm export it CMR?

    I realised I hadn’t added to this sub-forum, so hello from Kenya.

    A short bit of video… The official Video from the event…. You can see us at scruntineering around 4 mins in, and then again at 27 mins!

    UK return for an Afirrcan Overland truck

    Landcruiser and Hilux here CMR… but we do have a Mk1 Disco for the Rhino Charge. They tend to win it more than anything else, and that is proper 4x4. https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/i-realised-i-hadn%E2%80%99t-added-to-this-sub-forum-so-hello-from-kenya.397605/

    Fitting New Distributor Did Not Go Well

    Oh dear! I bought a couple of new ones and they were a dark blue (replacing an old black one). Seem fine so far…

    UK return for an Afirrcan Overland truck

    It is difficult CMR, your problem is that any car in Kenya is expensive. The new price plus the duty, even on secondhand cars means taking them elsewhere and selling them isn’t economically viable. 12M KES is £69,096 according to xe.com today, which didn’t include the money you spent on...

    Disco 1 Ignition wiring, specifically on a QRF 10024 ignition barrel?

    Ahhhh, understood, my apologies once again. My Mk1 started as a 200TDi but now has an auto 3.9 V8 EFi (with a Mk1 type gearchange), possibly from a Range Rover, so it is a bit of a crossover. I guess that is why the Mk2 wiring diagram seems to work for me. Don’t you worry Sierrafery, my...

    Disco 1 Ignition wiring, specifically on a QRF 10024 ignition barrel?

    Apologies, it is on my Mk1, but agreed, it could be on numerous Landies. Plot thickens a little. The black and white pair are closed with key in 1, 2 & 3 but not 0 so that makes sense for key in sensor. Guessing I can just solder those together? The orange/white and red/white pair are open...

    Disco 1 Ignition wiring, specifically on a QRF 10024 ignition barrel?

    Having searched and found interesting threads like this, https://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/land-rover/discovery-2-ignition-barrel-wiring-diagram.385882/ I’m still wondering what two different pair of wires on my ignition barrel are (see last picture in this post). I’m happy with this diagram...

    What is this metal part for? Help a girl figure out!

    Guessing they are after market tie-down strap anchor points. Off a roof rack perhaps?

    P38A Tuning the 4.0 thor

    Some here, tempted with the ‘auto’ / max torque one myself. https://www.pipercams.co.uk/product-category/car/rover/rover-v8-3-5-3-9-long-nose?_gl=1*1r8aj7p*_up*MQ..*_ga*NjQ3MTgyNDY3LjE3NTEzMDk0Mzg.*_ga_TC4FFWWL1E*czE3NTEzMDk0MzckbzEkZzAkdDE3NTEzMDk0MzckajYwJGwwJGgw

    Freelander 2 Lightbar feed

    Ah, sorry. I thought you were going to have the lighter on a separate switch (like mine is). Re-read your first post and got it now. perhaps a feed from the ignition (so it is def off with the key out) then going through the high beam switch? Nodge seems to know best?
