    Spot light wiring

    Hi. I hope someone can help me on this one, I'vee been looking for the answer but am still not sure. :confused: Do I need a relay for each pair of spot/driving lamps on the front of the Disco? I have one pair to wire into the main beam via a relay and I am looking at adding another...

    How Much ??!!

    Well I've got the Disco back and it drives better than it ever has. They even gave it a wash!! (for £1128 I should bl**dy well think so too) I've just got back home after several weeks of chasing around in the Safari; more on that soon. New gearbox is a bit "notchy" on second when changing...

    Hot legs!

    Very good point and I have certainly learned my lesson the expensive way!!

    Hot legs!

    My 200 tdi transmission tunnel used to get "quite warm" but I didn't think much of it. Then the gearbox blew up!! £1100 later and it's back on the road and the transmission tunnel doesn't get any where near as hot. I don't want to be a bringer of doom but I'm keeping an even closer eye...

    trade in

    Forgot to say there's also a VAT saving for a dealer by reducing the price of the car and the trade in. Can't remember exactly how it works but it's to do with how much profit is shown on paper at least on the car they sell you.

    trade in

    Totally agree It's how much cash you part with plus your Disco that's important. Dealers can always drop around £1000 off the advertised price of any car on their pitch and still show a profit; this in turn means they can knock the same off what your trade in stands them at. Hope you got a...

    How Much ??!!

    Hi, I'm still very new to this site but was wondering if anyone could let me know what you think of the pricing I've been given for my repairs. We have a '93 L reg 200 Tdi (with 215000 on the clock!!) It runs very sweetly and it came with bills for every drop of oil and everything else it's...

    Hello

    Thanks for the words of welcome. Picked the Landy up tonight after managing to get a very helpful local insurance broker to give me a cover note on my new Classic Car policy so I could tax it without relying on Royal Mail :) (And I always thought Norwich Union were expensive). It drives...

    Hello

    I've recently returned to Land Rover ownership after about 12 years without one. Can't believe how I managed! You'll probably see quite a few questions from me in the next few weeks; our Discovery dropped its transfer box yesterday afternoon :( . As we had a planned trip away with the...

    Canvas capers

    I was looking at this one on ebay last night item number 260028866382 but have thought better of it. Not ideal to canvas a station wagon really, it will just look wrong. have a go it's cheap enough at £50 start. Good luck Andi
