If the number on the block matches the V5 logbook, I would assume the DVLA were informed of any changes. Or maybe it's just a nice clean engine that has been well-valeted before sale? As I recall, you can get info about previous owners from the DVLA. Maybe they can share info about any spec...

Guess I'll find out when I fit the new springs lol.... I'm guessing that my standard length shocks will probably accomodate a 40mm lift.

. Hi all, I have just ordered a pair of Britpart DA4203 rear springs to revive the saggy rear end of my old Classic RR (hopefully without making the ride too harsh in the process). I am leaving the front as it is. http://www.britpart.com/pdf/Performance%20Yellow%20Springs.pdf These will...

This link might help you with the tax banding for your vehicle: The cost of vehicle tax for cars, motorcycles, light goods vehicles and trade licences : Directgov - Motoring Just check your tax class on your V5 and then check the above DVLA page for the current fee.... Sadly they don't...

No, not looking for anything in particular.... I own a 1980 two-door classic and am hoping to track down a very early 1970s example too, so a pre-1987 manual and/or parts list would be handy. Rowland.

Good link Adam, do you have a link for the 1970-1987 Manual and/or Parts Catalogue etc? Thanks, Rowland.

How about the slightly smaller square plates that are used on some Jap grey import vehicles? That might fit OK and be sort of legalish ;)

Still looking.... if anyone has ANY suggestions, please let me know. Thanks, Rowland.

Range Rover "Classic".... Black Tinted Rear Lamp Lenses.... Anyone know who supplies them? Thanks, Rowland.

Hi Adam, I would be glad to do something like that :) I've been searching for a suitable vehicle for some months now.... still no luck as yet however. Cheers, Rowland.

I am looking for a project Rangie.... it must be a pre-1973 2-door vehicle. Condition is unimportant (I have two donor vehicles here). Anything considered, non-runner, incomplete vehicle, etc. Just a handful of rust and a log book would do! Please send me a PM or Email if you have something...

Just a quickie.... I have a tax-exempt IIA that I have owned for many years, the chassis isn't too bad but I have patched it a few times over the years. As I plan to keep the vehicle for life, I am think about fitting a NEW galvanised chassis. Obviously I am keen to keep it's original number...

Hi, Yes I did ask the question and I appreciate the expanded answer What you say makes complete sense, thanks. It has been making this noise for a long time without apparent problems and there is no significant leakage from the unit so I will carry on regardless for now. I know of a farmer...

Thanks again ormus :) My vehicle is a bit of a hybrid: early two door classic range rover, fitted with a Mercedes 3-litre five cylinder diesel lump mated to the rangie 4-speed box.... it's kind of slow, but pulls like a tractor. What sort of clutch set-up it's got is anyone's guess.... when...

It's certainly your heater matrix or hoses. I had a similar experience in my old MK2 Golf GTI a few years back.... it scared the ****e out of me!!! Fortunately I had work boots on and escaped scalding even though boiling water gushed all over my left foot. Hope you make a swift recovery.
