Evening all, don't usually frequent the FC/101 boards (or even profess to know much about them!) Anyway. Have been looking for a new vehicle primarily for farm work and on road duties. The load capacity of the 110 just isn't cutting it and frankly it keeps breaking down. After milling over...

Some of you may remember my recent gearbox woes. We'll if not I recently fitted a new lt77 into my 200tdi. So, all has gone well for about 1000miles. Gave the gearbox and axels a service last week and changed all the oils. (Also found a small leak at the drain plug which is hopefully rectified...
