Stick on plates are still legal as long as the follow the rules and if it was made prior to the rule change it would still be legal for no postcode, not every plate has a postcode on it just the ones made since 2001 I believe...

If the chassis was a replacement like for like it doesn't need a Q plate and of the original conversion was done years ago it would of been able to be done legally without needing a Q plate so could be legit...

Why's the number plate illegal?

Replace the oil, filter, feed and return pipes. What was the mileage? If its premature failure then maybe look at oil pump and strainer although its rare these are needed. Get a decent recon unit, do not use a polish or similar company, we have had nothing but bad problems with them, use a UK...

My dad had a facelift TD5, use to tonk it along quite well and didn't have any of the known issues, the gearbox was a but clunky though (auto box), other than that it was lovely to drive, much better than a 300, think I would stick with a 300 though unless you could find a low mileage, full...

on a 110 a lift will really benefit you for the off road situations, it will help lift the chassis out the way a bit, if your on rocky terrain I would definitely look into a tank guard and also a transfer box guard/slide as well as the usual rock sliders, steering guard and diff guards, these...

I am asking this on here as I am guessing there's some good V8 guys here. I am taking a 3.9 V8 with EFi from a D1 to go into my Manta GTE, I think for now I am going to keep the EFi as its better than the cheap Holley carb I have got and also its gassed which I may keep. I know I need ECU &...

Speak to Extreme4x4, they export to Africa all the time, they do custom setups and standard setups, use good quality stuff and are well priced for most bits.

I haven't been right through this thread but I guess there are plenty of people giving it the 'I have been through 6ft before' bull****, this question always seems to attract them sort of answers, its like its the off roading equivalent of 'what's your best 1/4 mile time'. I can honestly say I...

Geoff, top tip with ally, use fairy liquid as an indicator solution, squirt it on and rub it all over and then use a flame torch (oxy/act), the fairy liquid will burn and turn brown at the exact temperature which ally become malleable

Your off your rocker aren't yah, can't believe how much of an idiot you actually are, it's common knowledge the right twix is the superior one, can't believe you would suggest otherwise, that's actually offended my eyes reading that!

Why do you need to tell your insurance company? It is not a claim therefore it has F all to do with any insurance company, if the issues is settled between the two individuals concerned then there should be no legal reason as to why you have to tell your insurance company, well in my mind there...

I believe that if the iPod/iPhone is mounted to the dash then it's classed as an audio device and can be controlled whilst moving same as a CD player or any other device, worth looking into but pretty sure that's correct

It would be fine on a disco as the diffs are open anyway, the diff that the spare is connected to would just be working as though its constantly cornering. If your diff is a bit worn then it could in theory cause premature failure but not on a short journeys, if you was doing the length of the...

It's good over there, gets very muddy so will want some MT's fitted otherwise he will be slipping everywhere. There is a fair bit of recovery going on if its rained, if its dry then all the course can be pretty easy. Look for bures pit, a lot more varied P'n'P day

Ok, fair point, I will retract my previous advice and suggest the following instead: BURN IT!!

Before you follow any of the 'its ####ed' advice on here get it checked out by someone with the correct equipment. First you want to get a true temperature reading, for all you know the temp sender could be faulty. If the engine is running hot then a block test will want to be done as will an...

Pajero owners club is the only one I know and tbh its OK but not that great. If you look at Shoguns then you want a GLS, they come with the rear locker. The non-GLS models will be either open or LSD diffs. All of them come with a center diff-lock, steering guards, diff guard, transfer box...

If your unsure what your looking at take it to a garage, my advice though is do not drive it if there is oil in the turbo pipes, I would suspect a turbo and if it sniffs its own oil it will be a new engine needed, get someone round who knows what they are looking at to check it or get the garage...

They are quite small inside, with the back seats up there is a fair bit of room but no where near a Surfs capacity, more like a decent sized hatchback. They tow well but not 3500 I don't think, they do drive very well and if you get a GLS you get a center and rear diff lock as standard If its...
