Thanks for your reply:D I want to use it for my everyday vehicle, nice and reliable (-ish!!!), reasonable fuel consumption (-ish!!!) and I wouldn't mind being able to go at 50mph as at the moment I am not getting past 43mph. I don't want to go madly fast or do any extreme off roading (although...

Hi all I'm looking into changing the engine and gearbox for my series IIa landrover but are not sure what to fit. I currently have a 2.25 petrol engine, what have you all fitted or what would you all recommend? I would like to be able to drop a complete unit straight in but would maybe be able...

Thankyou:D...I'll take a look...am a little wary of them not being described properly on ebay as I am something of a novice and this being my first Landy!!!

Can anyone recommend the best supplier to get canvas top from? I'd like the frame and everything for a S11a truck cab. I currently have a Ifor Williams hard top which is unbearably painful to get on and off ( a girl needs to be able to change her roof on a whim and I still have the bruises...
