Just bought myself a carbon fibre fairing for my race bike. It was really cheap. OK, comparatively cheap. But it's in Wales and I'm in London. It's big, but it will fit easily in the boot of a Rangie with plenty of space to spare. And it's light, obviously! I'd be very happy to contribute to...

the only time my old Rangie has been in a proper LR dealer (since I 've owned it), the techs were laughing at the poor old thing. At the same time, a guy in a RRS was being told that his DVD, Sat Nav and audio system was buggered and would need to be replaced. That's around £3,000(?) to fix...

number 1 son and I are ****ing ourselves laughing at this! Excellent work!

ah, no, mine is rock solid once it's parked.

Thanks. So, I guess I'm looking at about £100 for a cooler and about £50 for pipes? DT, it's a petrol motor - should have made that clear, apologies.

ah, my current bike trailer has those little things. The new one has proper big tyres. I think they're 13". When you lock the height, does the car retain the height even if it's restarted or parked? The override stops the car self-leveling while it's parked?

fair enough. TBH, I look on things like this as the reason I got the car so cheaply. The previous owners probably looked at all these jobs that needed doing, maybe added a bit of mechanical ignorance and thought the car was a write-off.

that's good to know - thanks!

DT, does your little trailer have proper sized wheels? Mine has 13" from memory and I'd like to know what to expect when I hook it up.

thanks. I should be able to have a good look this week if the weather improves. I need to get it done as it's going to cost me a fortune in oil :D

I've done a search but not found much of help - lots of TD stuff for some reason. So, the mystery of what T2 is doing with it's oil has been found. It appears to be chucking it out of the front somewhere. Up norf, so haven't been able to have a proper look. The oil (it's proper black, not...

ah, understand now. They go all the way to the top of the window. Re the wheels being difficult to clean - dunno, you'd best ask the butler :D

Saw a few muddy Defenders and a Disco on the M25 last night. Only one orange one tho. Anyone from here?

you've lost me? Don't need wipers too much down here at the moment. Got the old thing cleaned yesterday, so took it into the park for some more pics:

Thanks Roger, I think it looks used but still pretty. Not usually a fan of aftermarket stuff, but those wheels look ok. Will get some proper pics today with the Nikon :) Wammers, don't you know, RR drivers get all the pussy?

Been very busy recently and never had my old Rangie clean or in a reasonable place to take a decent pic until the other day. So here's my old girl, or Thunderbird 2 as she's become known: Apologies for the quality - was on my phone and the lens cover needs replacing.

have you searched here for r/f antenna? The central locking receiver often wakes the vehicle in response to wifi or other radio transmissions on similar frequencies and drains the battery. Also, you've got L322 as a category, which might deter some people from reading this thread...

my left indicator doesn't work. We should travel in convoy.

original mini coopers were 65ish bhp - they won the MonteCarlo rally!
