Well it's not got a rusty chassis for a start....looking around at whats up for sale at the moment it's in roughly the right price bracket - granted toward the upper end of it - but thats why it's a starting price. Admittedly I have no idea if the rest of the defenders advertised at this price...

Cheers for the offer but looking for a fair bit more than that...

Well the time has come to say goodbye... Starting at £7600 but I'm open to sensible offers - reasonable description in the autotrader ad but if you want any other info ask away. Land Rover Defender County Station Wagon Tdi 90 Swb Diesel 1997 Any questions just drop me a line or...

Thats the sort of answer I was looking for - someone that's dealt with a company and had a good experience! - cheers! Still fairly pricey tho single sheet of CP 1250x1000x2mm is going to come in at £49 + delivery.....just seems a lot of cash - is it just me and my ignorance of current metal...

Anyone know of any good (cheap) places in the west midlands/birmingham area to pick up some 3mm chequer plate? Everything I've found online is either ridiculously expensive or (understandably) charging a fortune for delivery. It's only for fabricating a centre dash console thingy so it...

Nice one - will check it out and make sure I can afford the diesel!

Anyone planning on going out laning this weekend? Been a while since I've been off tarmac and this snow looks like it could be fun! Also any update on the H4H thing psulli?

Yeah i know, i know....... Ihad the battery cover off, looked at the terminals everything looked fine......just didnt give them a wiggle - like i said I'm a pillock, learnt my lesson tho, check and recheck, then take them off and put em back on again! Cheers for trying tho!

Well it would appear I'm a right pillock! Recovery turned up went to connect jump leads and everything burst into life before he'd even connected them to his truck. Turned out is was a loose connection to the live lead on thebattery terminal - I hadn't even thought to check! Bloody wierd...

Lights don't work anyway! Think it's got to be a dead battery that's making the car think it's nicked!

Nope - don't really know how to check it?? - got very limited tools with me - just a small socket set and a screwdriver. Bloody recovery isn't going to be here till 10 :-(

Ok quick vid of what it's doing. Key in the ignition but in the off position. Everything stops when I switch to position 2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9neLjDHRhc&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Ok what I am getting is loads of relay action behind the dash and some pips from the alarm system. It's trying to flash the hazards as well but only the led bulbs are flashing and not the incandescent side repeaters - the more I think about this the more it sounds like a flat battery. Time to...

Ok it's not the key fob battery anyway. Just replaced the battery and still no luck. Flat main battery? Hope not!

Ok, could do with some help here... stuck on a garage forecourt with no power. delarmed car, key in ignition, wait for glow plugs, turn key then dead followed by a relay clicking on and off for a bit now I can get nothing alarm won't arm or disarm, no power anywhere on the car...
