Hi, I have a new 110 CSW, sub Saharan spec in Santorini Black. I have two spare wheels and tyres and they are the LR dual finish boost syle alloys. I am having an off road trailer made and want the wheels and tyres to be the same as on the car for obvious reasons. The trailer will carry...

Foley's is a good idea. Although I live and work overseas, the family home is in Norfolk, so Foley's is not to far. I have heard varying reports of Nene, they are a main dealer for some quite big names (ARB for example) so what is it that is actualy wrong about them? And sorry, but living...

Hi, I am ordering a new Defender 110 CSW and then exporting it to Ethiopia. I would like a few (not a huge amount, but enough) additions and wondered if the communal brain might be able to point me towards somewhere that I could get the work done duty free (it will not be UK registered, nor on...

A grab bag is a must... But you MUST have some basic kit on you.... Knife, fire starter (fire steel maybe). Second hankie, yeah laugh, but I have stopped quite a few serious bleeds with one of these, every day wear having dual roles. And thats it, dual role. Belt, Great for using as a...

My wife is from close to this fegion in Bosnia, stunning area. The people from this area support one another fully. They all club together to send the kids to university. There are more Phd's in the area, per head of population than just about anywhere else in the country. What is expected...

Sounds great. I booked with trailmasters in 1999, or thereabouts. I was living with my girlfriend at the time (now my wife and with three kids), she needed a visa as she wass not british. We are still waiting! They would not give her one at the time as she was unmarried and bosnian! So we...

Hi, That's the question. As far as I know at the moment they have to be fitted by LR, but I am working on that as some of their kit is just stupidly expensive and I m sure I can get it cheaper elsewhere. Alan l.
