Woods, I've just re-read your post :confused: , sorry for only half an answer. For a full cage as you describe your unlikely to get a lot of change out of £1.5 - £2k, mebbe enough for a bag of chips. :eek: Errrr... "used" roll cages ........... not a big market :rolleyes: You'll get the...

If you are looking for a roll cage you might like to try try the following two links. Evans North OffRoad I believe both have been featured in the LR Comics recently. Evans seem very well respected, I've had one fitted by North Offroad and can recommend them highly, top bloke. Dave

The pressure in the system wil remain the same when you depress the brake pedal regardless of air, the air will compress, resulting in more pedal travel, but you can't have a sealed system with more pressure in one bit than the other. All 4 front brake pistons should move freely otherwise that...

It's the "fluid" in the power steering box.

I understand these guys are usually pretty good with mail order :) Paddock Spares Dave

I believe the application has been deffered for about 6 months so, at least that gives them chance to try and work with the forrestry commission etc and hopefully come up with a sensible solutuion. It does seem, from reading the objections that most of the problems could be solved fairly readily...

The decision has been now been defferred "IT WAS CONCLUDED THAT THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS REQUIRE MORE TIME & INFORMATION TO CONSIDER WHAT THEY BELEIVE TO BE A VERY IMPORTANT ISSUE." details are available on the Langdale Quest web site http://www.langdalequest.co.uk/ In addition over an 8...

Thanks for the support V890 Langdale Quest is an offroad driving cente near Scarborough in North Yorkshire, you can hire Suzuki jeeps to drive the course or use your own 4x4. The following link will take you to their website which explains what is on offer far better than I can...

I don't know if anyone on here is aware but Langdale Quest, probably the largest off road driving centre in the country is under threat of closure by virtue of their planning consent not being renewed. details can be found here http://www.langdalequest.co.uk/ There is an on line petition...

Try http://www.jeremyjfearn.co.uk/index.htm Top bloke. Simmonites are agents for Jeremy's conversion, pick whoever is more convenient I would say. BHP is increased from 122 to 185 (approx (51%), tourqe is up about 42% I believe, (that's for chip + intercooler). My TD5 can now accelerate...

Freind of mine has been looking for a Defender on a similar budget, we haven't half looked at some c$%p, seems like defenders are gold plated looking at some of the asking prices. Anyway, in conclusion we have both decided that you can currently get a lot better Disco than Defender for £3k. Dave

Hi Philip I have a 2003 Defender 110, fitted with a Safari Snorkel, that's a personal choice I'm pretty sure the Mantec ones are just as good. One tip I was given was to seal the hose joints with slear silicione when fitting as the jubilee clips can work loose. As to other things...

"as I could see air coming back from the injector pump towards the fuel filter" If you can see air bubbles then it suggests a leak somewhere in the fuel system, sorry to state the obvious but....... I've got the same "T shirt", have a good look around for any leaks, however small. Dave

Hi CrAIG, The above post seems to about sum it up from my past experience. When our youngest son wanted to insure his first car a year or so ago around about £1200, tpf&t was about the average. (Wasn't a Land Rover, but was low insurance group). Taking "Pass Plus" though did save him about 30%...
