    How loud is your 1.8?

    It was just as bad before the polybush engine mounts and AT tyres. It's always been really loud. The RPM is definitely a cause, you have to rev the nads off it to get it anywhere.

    How loud is your 1.8?

    Hey guys, Still haven't managed to shift mine, nevermind. Just wondering, in case I do keep it, one thing that really fooks me off about it is how loud the engine noise is in the cabin, it just sounds like it's struggling constantly and it's really off putting. 70 is like being in a lancaster...

    What is the black box under the passenger seat in my D2?

    Great! Thanks! That doesn't mean anything to me at the moment but I will edjumacate myself ahead of time. This will doubtless make more sense to Diesel Do, who will be helping. After we get the gearbox in. Hopefully. Maybe.

    What is the black box under the passenger seat in my D2?

    Well here is the installation guide. Now I don't know, but it looks like both the front and rear speaker are supposed to pass through a power amplifier, soooo we're ok? Or am I reading it wrong? I assume the HiLine power amp handles both front and rear?

    What is the black box under the passenger seat in my D2?

    Ah brilliant! I've just bought a Sony header unit, I assume I'll be able to plumb it into that too.

    It's a 2004 Landmark, is it part of the sound system or something? Just curious :). Will.

    Seized bolts are public enemy no.1 - they stop me in my tracks and feck up my plans.

    That won't be a problem I don't think. My old man works for CCW so he probably knows someone who'll be able to tell me in a jiffy.

    We have OS maps and we're good with them. So grid refs are fine :).

    Well neither of us are that experienced, so something relatively mild to moderate would be sensible I think. But I'd consider anything as long as I thought I could handle it.

    Visiting the folks near Abergavenny, any lanes or good roads nearby?

    Yes we won't do it if it's been chucking it down, this isn't a mud plugging excursion and we don't want to damage any lanes :). Either is fine, we're happy to go a little way to find a good lane or two :).

    Hi guys, I'm going to see my folks weekend after next, and one of my old friends is going back too (his parents live in the same village as mine.) He's just bought a 110 so I thought it'd be nice to take both Landy's out for a spin with our respective lasses. I've been looking about and it...
