Healthy dose of fear is the answer. We were bored as kids, but didn't break into motors. It may have crossed our minds, but we knew if caught it WOULD hurt. As for national service no thanks! I served and I was an aggressive arse for many years after. So taking numpties that don't want to...

Choose an MOT station that doesn't do repairs. I've worked in one. As long as you've changed your oil and filters should be no prob. The third and fourth run is a good call, but if recently serviced and you arrive for MOT with the engine up to normal temp you should have no prob. A seviced 6...

Many thanks. It had crossed my mind to just put them in other way around, I just wanted to pick some more experienced brains. Nice n tight they will be

Thanks for sizing. Yep buying a socket set deffo the answer. Mind If I had the cash I wouldn't be asking stupid questions about socket sizes!

Last week I had the deep joy of my front prop shaft breaking on the M56. Half the old one is off. New one purchased ready to go on. However my hand break cable is looking mighty mauled! Does anyone have a rough idea how much a replacement is? Silly question in a way , as it's got to be...

yep just like them. Great stuff, many thanks

Hiya, does anyone know of any sites with wiring diagrams. I want to fit a stereo into my Disco 1, and my manuel doesn't show that bit.

Thanks. Do ebay, got my roof bars for 2 quid :D . Back door a tenner!! and the right colour!! I know of a place that breaks fourtraks, I just wondered if anyone knows of a similar set up around here that specialises in Land Rover.
