Seasonal winter TRO, open from the end of April. The surface is pretty compact so even in the winter I doubt it would get damaged, sensible compromise though.

When she finds out how much you’re spending on it… 😬

Its starting to look like Christmas everywhere you go … Shiney landy bits adorne the man cave ! Very happy with the quality, a few hours of cleaning with a flap disc, few holes to re threaded and jobs a goodun!

The first thing I did was take the little steering wheel off and put a proper one on, I then fitted the steering wheel lock and pedal lock. The next thing I did was take it for a drive I then ordered a fuel pressure regulator repair kit as it was...

Nice looking disco. Good luck with the sale, someone will get a good one there.

Hi all, I’m a long standing member on here and have tidied up a D1 commercial over the past year or so with decent money spent. I now wish to buy my dream daily as not doing mad miles anymore and can’t justify two landies. If you know d1s you...

Ultimately, make it as difficult and noisy as possible to steal. It will increase the chances of the scrotes going elsewhere or getting caught.

It was a straightforward repair in the leak, which was around £180 including VAT and delivery. The recon was, as mentioned, around £500.

I used DTM Diesel in Bristol earlier this year and had very good service. Posted, repaired the following day and delivered by hand that afternoon, although I am relatively local. Others have used diesel Bob, although I haven’t. Maybe a local...

Lots of decent security measures and a full service.

Whooooohoooo! Galvanized bits are back and looking bloody amazing! Apparently theres an extra levy on the standard galvanising service its called the silver service 😂 , or in this case a tip !

Been under a pig today 😂 Yes she’s had all the boot floor etc done but this was some time ago now. I’ve found a little bit of chassis by the fuel cradle bracket that I’ll chop out at some point. First pressure washed, then snow foam and citrus...

For Gawd sake do not use one of those thick bitumen under seal, it soon cracks and traps water, There are several good products on the market to day. A "toffy hammer" tap test like what an MOT guy will do tells a lot about the state of a...

Hi and welcome! Nice looking Landy too!

Some images of our mechanical family member and the 200tdi to be transplanted. No prizes for guessing my surname - the pun is stolen from Quick Pee!

When you count 10 motors in the group..utter madness. I go with people who I know & any bad stuff I leave or they do.

More progress (week off!). The inside sill is going to get a fish plate over the joint as it’s right next to the mount. Starting to come together and look new

Just walked her mot 😎

Definitely. It’s quicker today though. Consistently inconsistent.

Looking at it...being in the last third of my life and wanting to enjoy myself...what made me think trying to recover this ferrous mess was a good use of my time? Sanity check over and thank you!

Had to reschedule to next Thursday so no wheel change today!🙄

I’ve been green laning since I got my first Landy in the early 90’s. I started with some friends who were members of a local off road club which was mostly into trials. We went in groups of two or three and didn’t tear up the lanes or drive off...

Why do people need to be told how to behave? All sorts of behaviour is available to be seen on the Internet, some just fine some not, doesn't make it an excuse. The group in the video know full well they were driving where they shouldn't and...

Thankfully I managed to buy some pins off eBay - LR Optional Parts and they came in a few days. Great service 👍. I fitted the catches to the glass, gave the glass a clean, painted the round securing nuts silver to make them look a bit better 😊...

Here’s what I cut out the nearside rear

The bonnet stiffener is rotten as a pear. With holes. The spare wheel carrier was unbolted and the bonnet hinge screws saw the slitting wheel release their grip. I dont know if there is an authorised way to remove the stiffner. The oak wedges...

Having the rostyles swapped over to the wolf wheels on the ninety. 😁

I hate welding on the chassis…I ain’t no welder.

Been to plenty of pay & play days where I have not even bothered driving. By us they just put the motors in the deepest things they could find & winch all day. I’m sure none of these drivers could do a challenge event(punch hunt). & last a day.

As a sort of update I emailed the Glass Chairman who via the local rep, has passed the video and as much info as possible to the relevant authorities. What comes of it, if anything, I do not know.
