Mine was the same, a new handbrake cable sorted it.

You would have to explain that to me.

I'm happy with the power of my standard Td5, what I need is the ability to tow a trailer in the winter with the wipers and heater on and at least a 300 mile real life range.

Short answer, Yes 👍😁

Yes, but a series 3 isn't a Defender.

What's a series 3 defender ?

I have the March one, if Keith_L doesn't have it I will post it to you.

All mine needed was the chassis, I supplied YRM galvanised chassis to bulkhead mounts and a new fuel filter housing.

Basic price would be about 6k, depends what else needs to be done.

Jeez, that's some bend, how fast were you going ?

Looks like the next issue of LRO will be the last.

My anti theft device works ! ( see avatars picture )

Best to try the simplest/cheapest option first.

Have you tried a new battery in the key fob ?

Yes every day, towing an Argo sometimes two, up forestry and mountain tracks.

Sounds like the drivers side CV joint.

Engine 710 in South Queensferry replaced my 110 chassis in five days, recommended them.

We need picture's as well, hopefully off road !
