yes, the part of the tonneau that meets the cab is held on by turn fastenings onto a small flap of canvas stitched onto the cab. the best bit though is being able to keep the military roll bar with it :)

this is about the best pic I have of it :) definately recommended

I had an all wheel trim hood made for my ex mil 90, 4 years ago, the type that retains the military roll bar and has a tonneau cover over the rear bed, as said I ditched the rope fixing for an elastic type and ran it for 3 years without any trouble. I sold the 90 last year and am still in...

You have to be wary of hidden massive potholes etc that could cause damage

If you do need a garage to look into it, I'm not sure about Whitby but there is a specialist in Stokesley called PVH PVH Land Rovers Home Its not far from Guisborough, so its well within reach of Whitby and I have had dealings with them before and have always found them friendly and keen.

Well, excellent call that was, spent ages stripping the old stuff off and they went almost flat by themselves, then the good lady said she would iron them for me (I thought she was joking) she wrapped each in a tea towel and ironed them slowly and now I'm left with some perfectly flat side trims...

I hope thats it, I've been trying to get it flat first before getting the remnants of the old tape off, I shall give that a go in the morning :)

thankyou both, any ideas on getting them straight again though, tried a few different things but they just keep springing back to a curve :mad: :p

thankyou, I feel a bit happier now that there are some good reports on bigger sizes with an auto

ooops sorry, guess I forgot that :rolleyes:. yes I do mean the door trims its on a 300tdi xs: the came off fairly easy but kind of curled up at the same time and won't go flat again :p

I've pulled the side trims off ready to put some paint on but am struggling to get them flat again for when I refit, also what's best to use for resticking them? thanks

You don't find that your acceleration is more sluggish?

lol thats fine, my old disco manual used to run on 235/85's and it was a great choice for driving in ruts etc from defenders

Thanks for the replies so far :) anybody run 245/70 or 75? or is it best to stay stock size

I've read through the tyre guide above and know which tyres fit, but just wondering what all you auto drivers are fitting to your disco's. On a previous 300 manual I owned a few years ago I used the 235/85 without problems but was wondering if the gearing would be too bad for the auto box? I...

I absolutely loved them, very good in the mud and very good on the road. I no longer have the 90 but it is sadly missed :(

Heres some pics of my ex-military 90 I used to own in its genuine camo, if its any help for the style

Your all missing the point here, strip out the interior and fill it with helium baloons, you couls also fill the tyres with helium :bounce:

its close, I actually live in Liverton mines but nobody tends to know where that is :) , moved here about 6 weeks ago due to getting a job at the potash mine. I'm from northumberland originally but have spent the last 8 years living in nuneaton so really glad to be getting back oop north again :D

rest assured I'm still more than capable of asking daft questions :) as with my previous ones I never seemed to have the same problems twice :doh:
