Cheers, they'll do me for then :)

Changing the subject slightly, what do you think of those tyres? I've got a brand new set with the same pattern sat in the garage that I've been thinking of fitting.

The lane is fine to drive, but the bit at the side will be private land so don't go playing on it.

Managed to get a few lanes done in the Peaks last Sunday. Nothing tricky, but a nice day out. YouTube - Derbyshire February 2011

I've just done mine. I used some M8x20mm. I got stainless ones from the local ironmongers, cost me about £4 including the nuts and washers.

You should of mentioned it when you were round on thursday, I've got the same book here with it all in

9 days is while. Last time I used them it took about 4 days. I've always found the service has been very good, it could well be the Billing factor

But you will need to supply your own ear defenders

£5 an hour and she's yours

When I needed an Alpine window fitting I sent the wife down to Autowindscreens with the new bit of glass. She fluttered her eyelashes a bit, and they did it for nothing.

I got myself a 1990 110CSW 2 weeks ago. It had recently failed it's MOT and the garage who tested it quoted at £1400 to put it right. It belonged to one of my neighbours who came to see me as he was planning on breaking it, and thought I might know a few people who need parts. Instead I...

Sorry for not spotting this sooner. No they're not lift springs, they are just heavy duty ones. The chap before me had them fitted, not really sure why as it didn't do any towing. There's not even a towbar.

You'll be fine with a 110, especially as you've already got another car. My wife did have one for her dailly driver, but when she was pregnant she had problems getting in, so we let it go. After the little un came we got a 90, but that was a mistake as they're just not practical. We've now...

Not had a chance to look yet, but thanks for the suggstions. I've got it home now, we just gave it a tow start and it drove home fine :)

I had a quick look at the earth from the battery, but there wasn't one going to the chassis it went straight to the gearbox

I was due to buy my neighbours 110 off him, but it's got a starting fault and it's got us both baffled, so I'm hoping you might be able to help. When you put the key in the lights come on as normal, but as soon as the key is turned everything goes dead and stays that way. But if you leave it 5...

Brilliant writeup and pics. Keep up the good work ;)

Yes he's out. Nothing to do with the muddyknobs. He was on his own and should of been ok, but took a wrong turn. I reckon it'll be the last time he goes on his own :rolleyes:

All sorted. Landy recvoery is on it's way

God no, nothing to do with them lot. If it was he'd have at least 2 winches :rolleyes:
