PM me your email, i have scanned the LRO piece on refurbing them, and I can send it over.

I could take a photo of mine if you like, and i'm sure LRM did a piece on refurbing these recently, i'll have a look to see if i still have the mag.

I've swapped my late 2A for a 1959 series 2, and I have got used to having no synchromesh :), but the lack of seatbelts is causing me some worry. I know i'm a safe driver but the amount of nobheads who will take stupid risks to overtake me just makes me nervous that if i do crash i'll be wearing...

Some folks bite far too easily.

Descending on a diesel engine is nicer than a petrol, especially when the seatbelt is keeping your face off the windscreen. The compression slows everything down :)

I'd get the D3. Land Rover know what they are doing, and a D3 is a good bit of kit. If you want to be able to fix everything yourself though, get a 90/ Disco 1 or 2

get WD-40, duck oil, diesel and copper grease on your shopping list then, say goodbye to your knuckles as well. Welcome to the madhouse

It's a 1971 L plate, no photos sorry. It could be kosher but i'm not 100%. I'll get some pics when I can

I have been asked for selling advice on a series 2a, but i think it could be a series 3. It has a Series 3 bulkhead, plastic dash and tax exempt, but not sure myself; any pointers on this?

£129.00

Tinned meat?

I believe so with the exception of the wing fronts, military ones are vertical, civilian side by side.

Had the same issue with mine. The butterfly flap controls the vacuum, and mine was not closing due to the hand throttle being open slightly, once sorted brakes were ok and servo working. I did look into adding a pump but why bother if the original set up works?

Great stuff Looks like the petrol engine is a better option

Just so you know, your 88 is a series 2 or 2a by the looks of the bulkhead, and is in pretty good order from what we can see, check the v5 and see what it says. Square apron as well, my bet is it's a 2, luck beggar if the price was right.

Thanks for the replies, I'm looking at small 2 berth 1250kg max, so it will get there eventually I suppose :o

Anyone tow a caravan with a series? My 2.25 diesel is not the quickest of motors, and i'm thinking of getting a van, and wondered how stupid an idea this would be.

"If you do it properly then what ever you think it needs now, will be 10% of what it actually needs. if you get it up to basic legal running standard it won't last long before needing work. it will also cost more than you want it to. but if you've got time and space then get on with it!"...

That has got to be saved :(

The AA work for the police?? How?
