Cheers for the responses everyone. I’ve ordered some 3mm neoprene to cover the last bits of exposed metal as I figure it’s decently insulating in my wetsuit so it’ll probably be alright on the roof. After that I have the old headlining I originally took out to retrim and fix back in place. I’ll...

Does anyone have any suggestions for material to finish off insulating the roof of my Landy. I’ve done most of the roof with foam floor mats, but I now need to get something on the last few bits just to stop condensation. I’ve included a pic of what I’ve done so far. I just need a material to...

In case anyone was wondering, I ended up using a spray glue called Nemesis that was on offer in Screwfix. A bit more expensive than the basics stuff but works well. I tried the Screwfix basic stuff and a week after glueing the foam it fell off. The Nemesis glue has held up just fine so far, had...

I've been sticking foam floor tiles in the back of m landy in a futile attempt of tidying it up. So far i've been using bog standard spray adhesive from Screwfix (the kind you stick carpet tiles down with) which seemed to work ok, but after a particularly hot day I got in the landy and all the...

So i've located the source of a leak and its s problem with the bulkhead to windscreen seal. There isn't one. I've done a bit of searching online and the new foamy seals are easy enough to come by but people don't seem to be a big fan of them. Anyone know a good place to get actual rubber...

So the doors on my 90 are pretty shot. Its not a lot of difference in price between repairing my current doors or buying new ones, so I figure why not get some nice new ones, maybe get them to last a bit longer. I've been looking at a few doors here and there and wondered if anyone had any good...

Thanks for all the advice guys. I'm planning on keeping her so now it's just a case of getting everything that needs doing done. First on the list is getting that underside coating off, giving it a clean and getting a new one on. Then probably the rust patch in the bulkhead. The diff seals...

I bought it to use, mainly for shooting in winter. Basically I don't want to have to spend more money repairing it if it would be better for me to sell it, keep the repair money and pool my cash to buy would cost to buy one in better condition. It's a 1993 200tdi, lt77 gearbox (so that'll need...

I recently got my first Landy which on first inspection seemed in pretty decent condition (excluding a few debts of course, but what do you expect?) After getting it up on a ramp and giving it a through once over, I think I've found all the work that needs doing, which is as follows: - Front...

Hi all! After years of waiting for one to crop up at the right price in the right place, I've finally got my first Landy! An old dinged up Defender in the most unpractical colour of white, but who cares, I think she's fantastic. She's got a few problems so I'm sure I'll be posting a...
