When he bought it it had been freshly undersealed and the rear cross member painted and looked good but hasn't held up well to the UV at all. Does the crossmember actually flex enough to cause hammerite to crack? Really? i could understand it would chip easilly underneath, but crack? Surley...

My Father bought a MY97 90" 300TDi County about 2 years ago. Since then it's had a full service, timing belt and a clutch but it's only done about 1500miles and generally neglected and looking sorry for itself. However, it's a solid car, runs very well and even passed an MOT with no advisories...

I tried to remove all the screws but the lower dash just wouldn't come. I removed the speakers and the two ducts. Is there something I'm missing? Sam.

I've installed a new ariel into our 90. I managed to fish the cable through to behind the dials but struggling to get it behind the radio. Anyone got any tips? I'm considering removing the lower dash. How easy is it to remove? Bailes.

What's the best way to remove the EGR system on these? The car itself is a Defender 90 300TDi of '97 era. I was considering going the whole hog and removing the control modules and all the wiring. How easy is it? It would be nice to remove all traces of it altogether. At bare minimum I'd...

I am very suprised with how clean it is. The numberplate is only temporary. The auction company did it so it could be driven home. We will get a new one made up in due course. However we have cut it so the rear hatch can be opened. My Father picked it up from Yorkshire and it drove the 280miles...

Hi, Didn't feel the need to put a thread up in the New Members section. I thought this could double up as an introductory post. I'm Sam, 22 from South Wales. I've always had lightly modified cars. My last car was an '08 Mondeo, it was lowered, running a stainless exhaust with a decat and EGR...
