I remember trying to burst a balloon from about ten feet, the bullets bounced off !

Same here lots of fun fireing the plastic bullets at each other.

The two rear AT tyres look close to the limit and the spare is a MT.

Your transfer box has three ratios ? Mine only has two and I would use high.

I had a 1985 Land Rover 90, 2.5 petrol , definitely not a S3.

You and me both, welcome to the club !

I was told in a pub in Stornoway that anyone South of Inverness was a soft southerner !

Not if the Southerners are North of you !

Ahh, I see, your from the South West then !

Welcome to the Forum, what part of Wester Ross are you from ?

I got my 110 Double cab re-chassied by Engine 710 in South Queensferry last July the cost was 6k. I didn't need anything else done other than the chassis.

If you drive a "dual purpose vehicle" a pick up with four doors, five seats ,four wheel drive and an unladen weight of no more than 2040 kg you can drive at " car" speeds, heavier than that you are restricted to 50mph on A roads and 60mph on motorways.

I had a 1996, 90 station wagon for work that came with alloys from the factory. edit to say it was a 300tdi

Told them that it was a Marsland chassis, Land Rover/GKN chassis just galvanised but they were having none of it.

Was with LV for years, no problems until..... Got a new galvanised chassis and they said it was a modification they would not cover!

I have to drive along snowy forestry and mountain tracks for work, you can't beat four chains. Often I have to smash my way through snow drifts sometimes having to take several runs at a drift.

Just get four steel rims and fit them without tyres, will do what you want very cheaply.

So you live in London, have a raccoon problem and get someone from Texas to sort it for you? I smell bullcrap.

Something attached to the roof gutter next to the windscreen?

Don't worry, it happens to us all !!!
