Sorry if i put this in the wrong section... i couldn't find a classifieds. Land Rover 90. 2.5 TD. 1989 F reg - Red 127000 miles, and at least 127000 left in her. Good strong engine Chassis and body, immaculate. more like a 1999 than 1989. Has recently had over £1500 spent, including...

P.s... The OS map looks like heaven doesn't it ;)

hi guys, don't wait on my account. I'm not going to be better for a few weeks yet :( just promise me that if you go... make sure you all go again when i'm better.

the tires are small, well smaller than my friends. The difference when cruising at 50 is amazing, his is quite. I think in its earlier it has had a transfer box alteration giving a lower gear ratio, because i tested top speed the other day and it struggled to reach 70, flat out revving it...

Thanks, I think its gasoil.

Anyone ? Any idea's?

Hi, I am planning a trip of about 2000 miles, to southern france and back. And was wondering if it would be possible to remove the front half shaft, in order to make my land rover 90 2.5td a rear wheel drive car, and thus save on fuel. Is this possible ? are there any risks? does it put...

I just found a track today, running from salisbury plain to shaftsbury.. it was 30 miles long :)

Can anyone confirm that? about the 200tdi breaking gear boxes. Should i go for a 300tdi ? And why is it people say the 200tdi is better, when its older?

Thanks for the advice, I'm going to get at work fixing the plywood to the carpet (or vicaversa) and you can laugh, but i've actually done just that, gone to the wilton shopping village in salisbury (where they make it) and got a lovely off cut in beige. £20 ;) bargain. Im sure it'll stay...

Hi, it doesnt matter if they are firing, because it's only the danger area that they do that, and your not allowed in there any time of the year (except for like xmas day when they've all gone home) And the danger area is very clearly marked with signs on the road saying if you go past here...

Hi, yes, i'd be more than interested in doing some green laning in france. My friends and i were planning a "booze cruise" in our Defender 90's. So if we could combine this with some offroading it would be perfect. I happen to live about 20 miles from portsmouth (or 5 miles from poole...

Hi, I live in ringwood, (near bournemouth..dorset) i wondered if anyone knew of any decent lanes (or wanted to join me offroading sometime) around here. The nearest i know of is salisbury plain which is a bit of a trek. Thanks daniel

Hi, i live in ringwood (about 15 miles away from salisbury) i've been to the plain once before and it was really good. i was however with someone who knew there way round. i'd love to go up there again, if you wanted to just "explore" with an OS map and see where we end up drop me an email...

Hi, Does anyone know if land rover ever made some comfy leather front seats to fit a 1988 defender 90. Also, how does one go about carpeting the rear area, and fitting speakers to the inside. Is there anywhere that sells rear headliners?
