UPDATE: They've organised for a LR approved garage to pick it up tommorrow for the work to get done. Lets see if they actually turn up.

TD5 it's not too much trouble to take out the fuse to the ECU which the engine won't run without. Of course if they realise it they can just switch over a fuse from nearby. But will they really check? (Thanks to Ian90 for this one) Mech locks from mudstuff.co.uk are supposed to be good. Its...

Ahh that makes it more complicated. The house also has businesses on the property. But, access is normally stopped at that time with all gates closed. So thats a very interesting thing for me to look at. Thanks more guys.

Thanks for how helpful everyone has been. They've got til Friday before the police get informed and insurance involved job lot. Got the quotes from stealership to get them to do it, but they are welcome to try and find a cheaper quote, but for no worse workmanship.

Hey guys. This is something I've never had to deal with before. So please be patient with my non-technical terms. My TD5 defenders recently lost all its power steering, heating, brake servo and alternater in one fell swoop. Tracked this down to the auxilery drive belt. Looking at the belt from...

Mate, welcome to the fun and games of owning a landy! Sounds like me when I got my first one, and I'm not much better now! But they're great to learn about engines and other systems on because they're relatively simple. And putting a rough location up means if you do ever have any problems...

Ratty I like your thinking. Cheers (Theres another quote for your sig)

Steering Guards, Diff Guards & Jate Rings for Land Rover Defender / 90 / 110 / Series II / Series III £36 on there.

Ha. Well the reason no mates from Lympstone (its a little tougher than Catterick) have been to visit yet is because if they don't pay up, then its time to go to the plod, and I ain't getting landed with that. Chassis was due to be checked on Monday but will have to wait until i get it fixed...

They've already agreed to pay whatever the cost. No need for threats, anymore. But originally it was a threat to go to plod with CCTV, they'd be looking at TWOC, criminal damage and something to do with endangering human life. They hit one of their mates on the shoulder which was lucky he...

Thanks for the support guys! Well it is adding up to ££££ for the repair, definately into 4 figures, thats for the bodywork. I'm hoping the fault from this is related to them, but can't fairly pin the blame on them until I know whats caused it. Piccies? I'll try! Card reader doesn't seem to be...

Wasn't quite sure where this wanted to go....so I gave it a crack here! Last Saturday day time. I'm parked down at tesco, reversed into a spot like a nice, good little boy, and went in to buy my fags and porno. When I come out, someones managed to put a rear windown out! God knows how as there...

I picked up a Champion C9500TDsi at Newark this year for about half what it was worth. Nowhere near as expensive as a Warn, and mines been dunked in ponds, crashed into trees and after the basterds stole it last weekend, crashed into a wall! Still works fine. Tis mighty strong, pulling skip...

Devon4x4 are doing forged jate rings for £13....might save a few people a few quid. Dunno if I'm allowed to post a link on here to it tho?

Mine was broken this year. But I noticed the handles weren't moving properly. Took off the instrument panel and there was a dead wasp stuck at the bottom of the fan handle. Year before it was a dried piece of mud :P

I'm crappy with fabricating things, but I made a bed system in about two hours (sounds quick but wait til you hear how simple it is). Got a 110 CSW by the way. I folded the middle seats down flat but didn't fold them forward. Then in the back I made basically two small tables, from 2x2" wooden...

Erm...boyo...you're threads getting hijacked....did ya pass?

Owsit gone then?

Aww damn. Thanks for the offer paul. If I'd of waited around would definately of taken you up. But instead I went and drowned my sorrows of a broken landy in the best dives of Sheffield.

good luck boyo! Passed last year and you wouldn't believe how good you feel afterwards! Get ready for life to really start
