FYI At the weekend I was at a friends house in York, Disloked/Clutch clawed the 90 up, went into town. As we came back to the car some 2 hours later two foreigners (not a presumption heard them shouting) were trying to break into the drivers side trying to wench it open with something...

Cheers, It's cost enough, but definitely worth it!

Thats because it was provisional insurance and you have to have someone who has been passed for more than 3 years in the car i think. Try ringing aviva, don't just settle for what the website says, that's what i did, make sure you have a lot of time though, because the amount of times they...

Aviva is the place to go, £900 for my first year and now £700 for my second, thats me as mine driver as well, so my NCB are building up.

1995 300TDI, got it for around £5k, but this was purely because of what had just been done to it (new clutch & gearbox) and mods put on already by twisted performance. Looks brand new now though, after a galvanized chassis and touching up some dodgy paint work!

I'm the same age as you, got my fender just before my 17th birthday, and my insurance for the first year was £800, and now in my second year it is £590, try aviva, and possibly use the money saved to invest in the fender, and trust me you'll need it. Best first car anyone could wish for, but...

Well for one, Defenders that age without costing a small fortune will not be immaculate, and what you perceive as immaculate may be different to someone elses!

Actually i don't think that one i posted will fit mine as after research it looks like that will fit a 96 onwards and not my 95 so kes it might fit yours. The search goes on!

Sorry to bother you again, but as you have the expertise of completing this yourself, could you advise whether this Famous Four - Part Information for FF004557 - Mild Steel Tailpipe - 90/110 and Defender would be suitable for my 1995 D90 300tdi? Thanks!

Thanks, that does make sense, I guess i'll get searching for a downpipe! Cheers guys :D

I've got a 300TDI and I got a Straight Pipe this removed the cat, but i don't get that nice whistle noise you get? Is there another cat to remove? or have 200tdi's have a different turbo/noise?

Going to order it later this month once i have some money, then will post results! Good luck with yours :)

Right guys, just going to bite the bullet and go for it. Will post pictures.

I did see a few threads with the camping foam but this stuff properly deadens as i have some fitted to my wheel arches!

Yeah as i've seen the material and it's no different to the current look of my roof, as its black!
