Time to fit this lot. Been sat on the bench waiting for some spare time and its here..... thanks Govt. Not sure where to put the tank migh simply use a 5l fuel can, but whatever I will post up the install and what I reckon it has done for the old girl aside of sticking another bit of weight on...

You really may as well run on keresene or cherry if you are going to use old engine oil as its as illegal as them. Get stopped you will be fined heavily at best. Anyone who tells yo different is mistaken.

Fitted correctly they do not leak. I PVU'd them in and short of poking a garden hose at them they let no water in ever. Do they help the heater or reduce condensation - without a doubt if you have a well sealed van it offers very little air change ventilation opportunities. Without them...

Brave fella. Will they appreciate the 6mm cross member youve had fitted? They (HMRC) might just crush it all the same. Just askin'.

You still running used engine oil in your motor Shifty?

Its the outside that needs a handle in my view. Why never fitted is remarkable - however it does allow self fit of alloy rear cross meber handle. Heres one I made earlier......

With so many excellent used seats out there (I fitted a pair of as new Disco 2's in my 110) and the relative ease of fitment I always wonder why the stock items feth so much second hand. In my experience the factory seats are too low and offer no lumbar support at all, yes the bases come off...

Nope I do not thinks so as I wanted to do the same thing and had at the time a full brand new Double SS stainless exhaust for a TD5. Bigger diameter pipe on the TD5 and different pipe lengths. I had Proflow make me a stainless rear section up to my thru pipe centre on my 110 200tdi...

Neat trims you have there - why are things you want so expensive. Fancy them just tidy up the rear. As for the sub IMV all sound systems need a sub as they are the only way of delivering bass.

Its perhaps the most awkwardly placed bracket on the whole car. Which is why many get left off when the pipe is removed and then refitted.

MrJ I need a new pump as my genuine 200 Tdi Defender unit whilst it does not leak the steering is very heavy - used to be fine so I guess its the pump - I have changed the fluid but still heavy. What sort of money are they?

More than I planned ...... £800/900 ..... a lot of diesel. I can save about £55 a tank using SVO so I reckon two years at current driving before its paid for itself. Did it to see why so many folk seem to have problems with SVO and I guess its down to them using poor bits and bodges?

Sean you are the class Dunce. Taking a 94/5/6 Defender 90 and turning it into a C plate is a light change if all you have really done is change the plates. Duhhhh.
