I won't lie, after watching it, i think i want one too! The problem is, the only 'spare' body i have is a disco. I don't think it would look as good as with a Series body on top 🤣

I stopped watching this when they removed the care in the community entrants in episode one of each series...

Wanted to do a bit of work on me Landy today but another thing got in me way. About 5 months ago I was diagnosed as pre-diabetes 2 and at risk of getting it. And have been badgered by an NHS (contractor?) to join a help programme, to which I have...

TACO... I'm not a conspiracist, but the CIA should've put a better shooter on the roof...

It has turned a bit cooler today. Central heating switched itself on this afternoon, must have forgotten to turn the auto off at the start of summer :rolleyes:. Put me thermals on tonight - might need a cup of cocoa later 😁

"swapped for something silly?" Would that have been a, erm, Land Rover by any chance? 🤣 The thing that worried me the most is when i realised the new matrix wouldn't fit, i looked at the contents of the car all over the grass outside and...

It requires some work(which old Landy doesn't) Seller's description: This is Chassis no 1 of the UK home market vehicles, and was on the stand when the 2A Forward Control was launched at Earls Court in 1962. Still has its Land Rover Number...

An interesting combination! A Land Ripsy? Does it have the flexitor suspension or leafs?

Except he won't. Why? Because he'll back out of it. Like everything else he says he'll do... I'm still waiting for the headline "Trump takes one right between the eyes."

Anyway, if I was going to buy a vehicle for the traits the Freelander supplies, I'd buy a Disco or Rangie.

You do sometimes question one's sanity when you buy another one though. Last time i checked i'd broken the £5000 spend barrier post purchase on the 101. And it's still up! Next job is brake servo. My sphincter can't take the stress of having to...

10 hour job on a lot of vauxhall cars, at £60 per hour. Makes a lot of vehicles beyond economic repair. It's one of the reasons I keep my Landrover.

Ah yes. My Citroen ZX. Took all Saturday to remove the dashboard. EVENTUALLY! Haynes manual said to remove dash, SOD THAT thought i so commenced removing bits because i wasn't going to remove the whole dash. Until i did! Then discovered the new...

Have you never followed(often old Fords) a car and when it indicates you get side and brake lights flashing at the same time? It's because the electric will try to find a path to ground. Often it takes a long route through other circuits...

Coil spring chassis with different engine, gearbox, axles and brakes but still free tax etc despite needing to be on a Q plate, i bet!

better than slicing ya hand on the cut off bit i suppose...

What are we looking at, the container for the PAS pump? Or the cable ties?

I see, so new seals wouldn't help, unless you stuck them to the flap to add mass :)

I trust your halo lights and low profiles look dandy with the tints. 🤣

Pretty Chavvy but I think it'll look alright, but as my name suggests I'm a bit of a C**T.

Welcome to Landy Zone. You'll do well here as you clearly have a sense of humour! Some people make a post, get the pi$$ ripped out of them for it and leave in a huff! If you fitted those doors for leg room, have you moved your seat to the left...

Have you considered lowering leafs and chassis mounted neons?

No flaps? Yeah, my mate really missed them on his TD5 90

When i bought my S2 they had practically no seal left so i would get a cold draft even when shut. I fitted new seals and found it hard to close them. Fitting new seals might remove any loose play.

Erm, with the handbrake on i would hope you couldn't turn any wheel... :oops:

The oily mess all over the box may well have blown back from the engine bay. You need to do a good clean up/pressure wash. Can see an oil dribble from the selector area. there are seals on those shafts that can be replaced, just a few bolts to...

Is there a clutch pedal return spring? Could it be missing or worn? The brake pedal on my 101 was reluctant to return until i fitted a new spring.

Clean the oil off. That might be several years worth of gunk.

Other than replace the cable i have no other suggestions. Regarding your pic, has the sheep just landed or is it about to take off?

It's been a few years since i drove YFO but i can't say i ever remember sniffing exhaust fumes with the canvas on. I probably wouldn't have driven around with just the back flap open though. If it was hot weather i'd roll the sides up too so...
