    For Sale Few soft top parts and general bits and pieces

    Recommend a garage around Newcastle

    Tis true, how OldSeadog can get his 2.5na to sound so nice is a fecking miracle!! I have used cheviot, they were ok, but not cheap. Peter and Marsha at Spannermonkeys (Washington) are worth a try, esp with the electrics as Peter was/is a autolecky. Cheap hourly rate, and have gone into odd...

    Can you get a reliable decent Defender without having to pay over £8000

    I had a similar struggle. Wanted to spend no more than £5k and really wanted a 200tdi. At that money, everything I looked at had rot. My main must haves were solid chassis and bulkhead- I see eveything else as a bolt on part and easy to replace. I ended up going ex-MOD and managed a perfect...

    Indicators, Hazards

    I pushed the tell tale window into the housing of my hazard switch the day of the MOT. Agreed withe Mr MOT man that it would pass on the day as long as I took it back when I replaced it. He laughed his head off when a brand new switch gave the exact problems you are having - the old one went...
