    Yeah but they ended it early, it should have finished tomorrow afternoon! I was looking forward to having a sleepless night worrying whether I should be getting it. Then I was gonna have breakfast sitting there thinking "yes....no......yes....maybe". Then I would have watched the aution count...

    Yeah, I was gonna ask if there was a copyright on it but I didn't so there it is, catchy and to the point! I cut and pasted it so I can't edit the bit out which is unsuitable for outside the anything goes so I'll blame you for it! :) Just checked the landy out on that website and the details...

    It was that website that someone on here brought to our attention a few weeks back. I know that it's not gonna be gosple but now it's put that awful feeling of doubt in me. The landy has just passed its MOT so it says so surely its details will have been through the dvla computer system alright...

    I should mention that it has been fitted with a V8 out of a rangerover. Could it be that the insurance company doesn't have a convertion like this on their database so have used the LWB info to bump up its insurance band a bit? I spoke to a mate about it and he found when he checked up on his...

    S2a Choke Control

    Thanks clivees! There is a bit more to it than I thought, I'd presumed there was just a switch that lit up a light to remind you that the choke is pulled out. I guess now that it is a light to tell you when you need to be using the choke in relation to engine temperature?

    Seen a nice series 2 advertised that I'm rather interested in. Just put its Reg. number into an online Insurance checking website and it came up that it was currently insured and was a 109" diesel. However, the landy is for sure an 88" petrol. Is there something dodgy going on here do you think...

    S2a Choke Control

    My 1965 2a has at some point had a different choke control knob fitted that does not have a switch to turn on the dash warning light. That's no problem but in the interest of trying to maintain originality I've spotted that there is the correct type for sale on fleabay. My questions are; Are...

    I think it might be a pet name for his/hers motor, bit like Richard Hammand and his Oliver. Or it might be the Axis of Evil state of Seriea?

    That's a bit good! If it is a decent one I trust you will be taking your old one back and demanding a refund ;) Or you could donate it to someone who has no intention of buying any of the parts they need! Looking forward to stripping my landy down and rebuilding each part as I transfer it...
