    Decent dash mounted iPhone5 holder

    The Brodit active ones are good, I've had an iPhone 4 one for over a year and it does what it says on the tin. I have it attached to a 'no-holes' mount which I've had in my car for a few years, the Brodit's mount has a standard 'pattern' so is pretty universal, which is a plus. If the iPhone 5...

    Rear door internal chequer plate

    Okey dokey, first little hitch. There,s a plate on a bracket fixed to the door just below the lock. I guess it's a sort of heavy duty striker plate that helps to take the weight of the spare wheel when the door is closed. The Rebel chequer plate doesn't allow for this so I guess it's hacksaw...

    Rear door internal chequer plate

    Guys, just bought the Rebel 4x4 internal chequer plate kit for a Defender 90 rear door. Looks well made but as I'm a bit new to all this just wondered if there are any fitting tips from bitter experience? I've done a few searches on here but can't find anything. If anyone has before and after...

    Hi from a new Landy owner in Reading!

    Just bought my first Landy, a 1987 Defender 90. Loving it already and looking forward to doing a bit of fettling! Bought it for the business and 'cos we've just got a dog, oh, and we get flooded and snowed in sometimes. (all these are just excuses, it's really 'cos I've always wanted one :D )...

    My first and last dumb post, honest!

    Hi all, I posted a quick hello a few days back but it never appeared, I don't know why, so, hi there, I'm Steve from Reading and I've just bought my first Landy, a 1987 Defender 90, love it already!

    Hi there from Reading!

    Hi, I'm Steve, I live just outside Reading, Berkshire and I've just bought my first Landy, a Defender 90 (1987). It's old and needs a bit of TLC but after 3 days of ownership I kinda 'get' why people get hooked on these beasts. I'll make sure I use the search facility before asking any...
