Following on from my post about where I should advertise my Landy (thanks for everyone’s input into that), I’m looking for people’s opinions on what you think I should be asking for it. I’ve tried to detail it in sections but there was an awful lot to cover so please try and stay awake and read...

I just wanted to get people's opinions on how you would go about selling your Landy? With so much theft out there, I m not sure how or where I should start 🤔 Where is the best place to advertise? I'm looking at moving mine on. It took me 5 years for a full nut & bolt re-build, completed in 2018...

I've got a 1985 90 and the window blocks for the front windscreen have seen better days. They are the 2-piece ones where the top part bolts to the windscreen frame and is joined by a hinge to the bottom part of the block which bolts through the bulkhead with 2 bolts. I like the Optimill billet...

For sale is a new, unused Factor 55 Hawse/Fairlead 1.0. I bought this when in the States along with the 1.5” version which I opted to fit so the 1” thick version is up for sale. These are beautifully machined solid anodized aluminium lumps which feel lovely and great quality. Only suitable for...

I’m helping clear some fallen trees and need to winch sections of an Ash tree up a wooded incline. The Landy will be on grass above the incline but still a slight downward slope. The turf is pretty soft. Can anyone recommend some decent winching chocks that will anchor themselves into the soil...

Just posting up to see if I can sort my father’s Freelander 2. He’s 85 bless him so when it comes to electrickery he’s out of ideas (there again so am I!). On start up, the sat nav screen will display the LR logo and then revert to the menu screen as is normal. But within a few seconds the...

This was bought from Foundry 4x4 but had to be removed due to a faulty ignition barrel. All it needs is a replacement shear bolt - you will see the bolt in the picture has had the head sheared off, that just needs replacing with a shear bolt and you’re good to go. These are £76 not including...

I need to get an independent assessment on my Landy for the purposes of an Agreed Value insurance policy. Can anyone suggest who I can go to? (I live in Gloucestershire but am prepared to travel if need be). Thanks.

Can anyone suggest who I approach for an independent assessment of my vehicle for Agreed Value purposes? I am in Gloucestershire. If I need to travel a bit I will do. Thanks.

I insured with Adrian Flux last year after getting my vehicle back on the road after 4 years. I’ve had my renewal through recently (no changes/claims in the last 12 months so nothing to change on the policy) and they want to charge me a £100 policy issue fee! When I asked what that was they said...

1985 90 - RHD I need to create an access panel in my lower dash on the driver’s side, just about where I believe a speaker hole is sometimes located but on my dash there is no speaker hole. Unfortunately it’s all fitted in place (as well as leather covered) but my sparky has screwed up and so...

I am thinking of fitting a telescopic ground anchor into my drive and would like to use a 19mm diameter link chain (a beast of a chain). It needs a clearance of 75mm minimum diameter to fit through so I need a telescopic ground anchor to suit. The chain will then go around the axle. I’m just...

If you do, how do you ensure it or parts of it aren’t swiped?

I’ve got the pictured washer jets fitted for the front screen. They currently spray onto the lightbar, ideally, I’d like them to spray onto the screen. Are these jets adjustable? I tried with a pin but it just bent. I intend to try again with a small drill bit in the hope they move before the...

I’ve done a search but it didn’t answer my question on these: https://www.island-4x4.co.uk/wheel-cover-90110-27mm-steel-nuts-p-27593.html As you can see they’re domed on the exterior and shaped to fit the nut flats on the interior. They push on the full depth of the nut and they’re a tight’ish...

I’m looking for (ideally) folding wheel chocks which I can use whilst winching. Can anyone suggest where I can find a set, otherwise I may have to make them which I haven't really got the time for. Cheers all.

Has anyone had to undergo the following to ensure your Land Rover is adequately covered for value on insurance?: ‘We are willing to reassess the valuation however, we would require an independent engineer’s evaluation from a member of the Institute of Automotive Engineers and Assessors (local...

Days like these...I don’t get it. Yesterday went well working on the bitch. Everything I wanted to get done got done, it all went fairly smoothly. I like days like these. And then, today. WTF? The headliner went in yesterday so I thought I’d fit the rear view mirror. M4 threaded rivnuts were...

I need two Sankey narrow track trailer wheels collecting from Hertford and dropping down to Gloucestershire if anyone can help please.
