    Bikes & a 90????

    I use a cycle carrier that clamps on to the tow bar. It carries mine and missus mountain bikes, whilst 3 kids bikes go in the back. One of the kids bikes is an adult size mountain bike and that goes in diagonally in the back, so I don't need to take any wheels off or anything like that. The...

    Fitted a driveway security post today

    ... And yes we have to check every time before driving off, that everything is 'unlocked/off/closed/retracted'. It's a bit of pain in the arse to be honest, but the reality is, if I want a landy, and want to keep it, then I have to do these things.

    Fitted a driveway security post today

    I put in a security post earlier this year during which my landy had been visited three times in the early hours. Initially had a fold down type, which was enough to stop them towing the landy off the drive (which is what they were trying to do). But after the third visit upgraded the security...

    How fast does your landy go...

    It's this foam mat stuff from Acoustic Moulded Matting System Cab side: covers footwells, transmission tunnel & seat boxes. Will get similar for under bonnet, second row seats & rear load area when I've got some cash. It does make hell of a difference mind. Talk & listen to stereo @ 65 no...

    How fast does your landy go...

    I normally do 60 - 70 in me 110 TD5 on motorways. Will do 85 at a push, but gets a bit scary after that.:eek: Got sound proofing in front and that makes a hell of a difference mind.

    head or heart

    Get a 200/300tdi defender and a run about. You know you'll regret it if ya don't.. When offroading etc you want to be enjoying what your doing, not worrying about scratches & scrapes. If ya get a cheap economical runabout then it's not that expensive either.
