    Oh no I love it! I wouldn't change it either, but if you give it a quick jetwash the mud sort of stains the paint

    sidelight trouble

    Hi, I'm 17 too just had this problem, none of my left sidelights worked so I took everything apart and found the wire from the switch had burnt out. So i replaced it and its all good. And for insurance try aviva van insurance! I'm the main driver and its £1500 a year

    Sprayed my landy over the weekend

    Yeah it's marking pretty easy, finger prints and that. But I hope as the paint gets harder it doesn't show as much

    Sprayed my landy over the weekend

    It's not that difficult, I had to hire a space heater so that it was warm enough, but it was the prep work which took most of my time up

    Sprayed my landy over the weekend

    I've been planning on spraying the landy for a while now but I have kept putting it off because of the weather. A neighbour let me use his shed over the weekend so I decided to prep it and get it done. Here's some pics of what I got up to. It started off like this... Then I sanded it down...

    Propshaft or radius arms?

    Propshaft or radius arms?

    I had a problem a few days ago with a horrible vibration over 40mph, found out that the front uj closest to the transfer box was completey busted and I quickly went out and bought another uj. Since then I have fitted it and have found that the prop is catching on itself because of the angle it's...

    Painting Advice needed

    I'm in the same position, I emailed militaryvehiclepaint.co.uk about spraying my 90 outside and they sent me this... 1. Temperature, low temperatures will slow the drying sped therefore the higher the temperature the better but anything above 10C will be OK but a little slow. 2. Dew Point...

    I'm 17 and I'm insured on a defender 90, £1700 through aviva. I did it through van insurance not car insurance which dropped it by about £7000! :P Have a look!
