You don't need to start engine to test the steering lock. Just turn one click and try. You'll feel it disengage

Cheers - seems like a decent company - what are the doors like? Are they galvanised? Aluminium or steel skin?

Can you give some ideas of price?

the bolt's there for a reason - you shouldn't drive a vehicle with bits missing.

Is the v5 Up to date with regard to engine? If so I don't think there'd be an issue but my only experience really is my landy, and apart from a galv chassis it's pretty much stock. I was there for the registration inspection and it's not really in depth.....I am not sure about soft top....I...

I enjoyed the drive, would have been better to have taken a day or two longer probably. I drove over from Southampton - so drove to Dover the night before taking ferry over to Dunkirk, then drove Dunkirk to Bremen first day, then Bremen to Linköping the second day - ended up about 8 hours first...

I drove mine over when I moved - so was considered part of "flyttgods" - I don't think it really made much difference, I think it's more important if you're bringing in a much newer car (and therefore could be liable for tax). I applied for an ursprungskontroll - certification of origin. You...

I can't comment on the moving project bit, but I also moved to Sweden a few years ago - with my newly rebuilt 1992 90. Once you get it here can give you a few tips on getting it registered etc. Where abouts have you moved to? I'm in Linköping

It's almost as if someone's taken off all the checker plate..... you don't normally see them that corroded on bodywork..... I guess maybe that's the reason they out checker plate on ..

The drivers door tends to have so e extra wires to signal back - this allows for example you to unlock the drivers door with the key and have it unlock the others doors. I have a hawk kit off eBay and that's how it works there

As a general rule, you should only be able to see through the windows....not the body work. Unfortunately with the bulkhead it's quite often a lot worse than it looks. I would suggest taking the dashboard off and having a good look. The bulkhead pillar's are likely also not in great condition...

ah sorry i misread. I thought you meant they felt fine bt hand. I would pull out the drive shafts, that way you can exclude the diff. if its lose without the drive shafts, its the diff, if its the same then you know its either bearings, brakes etc. You might evne find that one is ok and the...

if its just the axle....and it feels fine by hand....could it be you dont have the rear a frame on so its slightly out of alignment?

Give it a go using a bolt in the hole at the end of the CV - if it is that, you should be able to pull it out (have the wheels straight forward).

Sounds like the cv joint isnt far enough out. There should be some shims and then a circlip - have you added those?
