Say you somehow managed to get it catastrophically wrong while off road or green laning, Where do you stand from an insurance point of view? Do they cover you when you are off of the road and with green lanes technically still part of the highway, are you covered on them?

I have had my hardtop 3door for a day now and i am wondering if there is a guide to removing the hardtop? I have been told that if it is not done right it can cause some damage. anyone have a copy of the manual or a how-to? couldn't find much on google.

Actually..............yes i do :doh:, However, it is more for me when i am working on cars / bikes in the garage...honest.

Would not surprise me, you can fail a MOT if there is sharp of hazardous material on the front of a vehicle that could harm a pedestrian, however this is mostly reserved for sharp rusted corners.

Ah, Thanks Dent, found it. For anyone else looking for what this means, found a thread about it on this forum, Credit to fish face.

Quick question, Excuse my ignorance but i am fairly new to 4x4s, But what are the cables connecting the roof rack to the front of the bonnet for on the Camel Landrover for? Are they just another way of fastening the roof rack or do they serve any other purposes?

Same here, I rode two winters on it but this will be its first winter spent in a garage tucked away, It's sat on front and rear paddock stands on top of a rug. I need to remind myself to check up on it every few days and make sure it's not stolen. Bike for summer, Landy for winter.

Thankyou dude, St-Alb ah? About 8 miles form my house! (no stalker) I ride a Z-750, I have a photo of it below, was taken in Marakesh (SP) in north Morrocco.

If it helps Jai I also do a lot of Rough Shooting at the weekends, So i am more then versed in the country code and the do's and donts of the country side. Perhaps new people should sit in the middle of the pack, which would limit them driving off and doing something stupid? Failing that, Spike...

Thanks. The defender may be a good idea, but replacing the girlfriend? lol You must be joking, She bought me half bloody land rover, I'm carrying her shopping, painting her nails and keeping my mouth shut when she takes far too long to get ready for at least a year to make up for it. :)

just under £2000. A bit of back story, I spent a large percentage of my savings on a Saab93 (£1300), after 5 months of ownership (3 months of driving as i was in cast for 2 months in the summer thanks to my motorbike accident) the head gasket went and the car died rather spectacularly. No...

Maybe they dont have a secret handshake? :D

£1000 will get you a full custom system built from the manifold back, Maybe less depending on materials, Look towards getting a custom system made if you want. Sometimes aftermarket parts can be cheaper then OEM and pattern parts (but beware, some can also be crap)

Thank you, We will see how the next few months in the Freelander goes, I only have 6months worth of finance left on the motorbike so if i get a taste for it i will have to see if i can trade up some what.

A freelander, First 4x4.....sorry, a Gaylander as it seems they are known as around these parts. I'm from Hemel Hempsted. No photos yet unfortunately, I pick it up from the garage tomorrow night. I bought it and immediately asked for the Rear Diff and head gasket to be replaced and a Filter...

Yeah, From reading this website i get the feeling it may be a good time to stock up on head gaskets and headers.

We all start someplace :cool: I took a unfaired sports bike to North Africa, im sure i can get a freelander stuck somewhere suitably daft I'm in Hertfordshire, just outside of Watford and Luton. Hence the freelander, I dont live close enough to Luton to sell enough drugs to buy a Black Vogue...

They street race here as well, But they are a lot more subtle about it, Anyone who lives in south end will probably have heard about a few spots. (miss spent youth spent wasting ££££ on front wheel drive hatcbacks :o) Engine mods are also illegal in France, What i can never work out, is what is...

Ahh, right time to buy one too, they are all going cheep as chips, I have a 2007 Z750 in Acid green, which i have just finished putting back together after going from 120mph - 0 in about 4 seconds then bouncing off the side of a Silver Toyota and putting my self in the hospital for the best part...
