I've got a 200 tdi defender with an annoying rattle fromm the back of the transfer box. It seems to be a ring of metal that has worked lose on the TB where the prop attaches. Annybody know what this is? Also I would like to get the gearbox and TB replaced as both are noisey and close to...

Looking on ebay most of the traders put VAT on 110 CSW's. I will make him a cheeky offer and ask for the misfire to be sorted. Want to px my 1988 CSW so see what he'll give me for that as well.

Yeah its £8500 + the vat. but he came down £500 as well so £9500 including the vat.

Here's the link to it :- 2001 LAND ROVER DEFENDER 110 COUNTY TD5 GREEN on eBay (end time 03-May-10 11:47:03 BST) Crappy description but it is in very good nick. If anyone has any links or pics off better value Td5's post them to me. Want a CSW with decent miles and boost alloys. Cheers Daz

Test drove a 2001 TD5 CSW last night. Great looking truck, 60k and bodywork was much better than average. Only problem was that when I test drove it missed and lurched under acceleration, not massively but enough to make me worry about parting with my hard earned cash. When I returned from...

Sounds like a good idea. To be honest pretty ****ed off as it's taken me over a year to get it running properly and the first time I take in any water it cuts out. I think the post from Rattty is useful as well, it has an LPG conversion on it with a switch on the dash for the fuel pump, every...

Thanks, just looking at some waterproofing for the coil and dizzy. Only ones I can find on ebay are £35, for what looks like two marigolds and some cable ties. Sounds a lot to me. Any suggestions?

Took my 110 (v8 3.5) out for a bit of mild green laning yesterday. Went through some water about half way up the wheels and all was fine, took it nice and slowly and had no issues. On the way back went through the same water but a bit quicker and it spluttered to a halt. Obviously water got into...

Cheers, stunning truck and has convinced me to go for it. Hadn't considered black, was thinking about Green or Red, but seeing yours I think it's got to be black. 23mpg is going to seem bloody economical compared to my v8.#Daz

Thanks for the responses, I'm in Gloucestershire. Treworgy - did you get an XS? and how are you finding it. I have a 22 year old 3.5 110 at the moment so expect the new one to be a little more refined. That said I won't be getting rid of it I've invested too much time and money into it.

Hi, I payed a visit to the local Landy Dealers at the weekend to try and convince the missus we needed a new 110. To my suprise she was pretty taken with them and has given me the green light. Anybody know of anywhere doing deals on new 110 Utility's. Looking for an XS but came in at over 30k...

Thanks R-arrand look forward to seeing them. Its all confusing with the net telling me conflicting responses to my questions. So it's goods to hear from somebody else who has doen exactly the same. BTW the responses in this Forum are far more useful than any other ones I have looked at...

Regarding the loading, I don't carry much weight in the back but do tow a trailier with cars on it from time to time. I assume the weight of the trailer is not all on the wheels as it is on the trailer wheels and tow ball? I will look up the ratings but just interested on anyones thoughts on...

Cheers mate got any pics?

Sounds like I might be doing it for the wrong reasons, was going for the looks rather than the practicality. Trying to convince the missus it is not just for offraoding but also a nice family truck for taking shopping, even bought a dog to convince her we need to keep it!!! I like my wife, but I...

Bought some series sides but never fitted them, just sprayed the windows black (from inside).Looks good and also prevents people seeing what I'm carrying in. Cheers Daz

So spacers on front would help with poor turning circle? Was really after a set of freestyles but think I have fallen into the trap of compromising because they were local.

Just bought these alloys today and have been assured they will fit my 110 with no need for spacers. My Landy is a 1988 with drums at the rear. I have read the other wheel related threads but can find no ref to these particular wheels. They are off a 1996 Disco. Thanks for any advice...

Thanks for all the replies, I changed the leads, plugs, dizzy cap and rotor arm. None of it made any difference. So bit the bullet and bought a new Dizzy, problem sorted straight away. Only thing is brakes failed when I took it for a test drive, brake pipes corroded through, god knows why I...

Not sure, the Landyt has been cutting out periodically for a few weeks, normally starts after a few minutes. Originally thought it was fuel problem, but this time when it cut out there was plenty of fuel and good pressure. Put a tester on one ofthe plugs and there was no spark when I tried to...
