This is a pic of it, there is actually another post on it, the matt black 90 one...

Ah this is the other one stolen (with the matt black 90) from Pound Road, Pennington, Lymington, Hampshire SO41 on Sunday night. The matt black one's registration is H754 XWV, it was a very smart one, lots of lights on the front, lots of TLC given to it - someone's pride and joy, I used to...

Noooooo don't say that, I'm up at 160,000 miles on mine.

Yes they are, but the rims are the 6/12 wolf ones that need tubes (i think)

Thank you buckshot, not that I feel any wiser after your answer. What sort of conditions would you need to justify switching on the Diff Lock,?

Howdoyou mean? It was one of the new tyres that went pop on me. The old ones on the back wheels have been beaten into submission (for now) :mad:

Sorry, I know its a numpty question, but what exactly is diff lock and what is it FOR??? I never use low ratio or diff lock, I drive on mud and crap frequently and have been known to rescue other (foreign) 4x4's that have got stuck on more than one occasion. Am I missing something here? I...

Just to share with you all I had my first puncture on one of the new tyres Wednesday night. So 10 days and pop she goes Land Rovers:rolleyes: who'd have em?...

Thanks boydy. I'm coming to the conclusion that I may need to rethink things once I get there. See what other tyre options there are for those wheels I have. They ought to be able to tell me. Perhaps I'll give them a call tomorrow.

I like that navy blue colour, I think it looks really classy. My one's white, should I be seeking psychiatric help? I like it, everyone round my way knows it's me in it, there aren't many white ones around, but zillions of blue and green ones.

How do I check the rims are tubeless? I understand what you say about the tyres may be not fitted right, I did the same routes in a volvo estate, proper little mini and toyota yaris and never had a single puncture between them, whereas this thing... Maybe it's not punctures but the valves...

I wonder if you can help me on this. this is one of my wheels, and the second photo shows what size it is (I think). 1988 Defender 90 turbo diesel. (the one before the 200tdi engine) I'm getting new front tyres put on this weekend, more Grabbers 235/85/R16 to replace what's there and match...

:biggrin1:

Ah yes will check that. I thought there might be a leak of some sort from inside one of the back wheels (but I'm not getting through any brake fluid, same as you) the last time I happened to look underneath on a dry day.

Err going back to the original subject, my 1988 LR90 doesn't have any side repeater lenses...
