    Love my new roof tent

    It can withstand wind speeds of 70mph. Not that I'd like to be in it. As for low bridges and branches I'll try to avoid them .lol

    Discovery Td5 issue

    Depends on how long you keep finger on the lock button.They go off after 30 seconds or so. Mainly for winter or dark days where it shows you where your going. I like it and use it often as my driveway doesn't have a light.

    D2 Facelift Headlights stolen too.

    I bought these from an independant Land Rover dealer just outside York. May not look particularily strong but as long as it puts any potential thief of I'll consider it money well spent. www.facebook.com/permalink.php?id=139039326639&story_fbid=10151828775456640

    Worth a gamble?

    Bike Carrier

    I bought this when we went on holiday to Holland. Loved it especially the way it can tilt forward so you can get to the spare wheel if you get a puncture. Easy set up and it was secure.

    disco 2 cruise control kit

    Cruise control is a brill addition. Bought my kit from fleabay for £100. Best £100 I have spent on Keith. The mechanic who services my car had it fitted in 30 mins. I noticed that driving at 63 mph was perfect on t'motorway. Buy one and enjoy!

    NFU allowed my son on my wifies insurance on a Fiesta when he passed his test at 18. It wasn't cheap though. The insurance went from £24 to £181 a month. However it did plummet in the second year to £121
