    What Winch ?

    Before I finally buy I wanted to check what people think about the winch I will probably go for. I've got a 90 and I use it 80% off road, 20% on road. My budget is £500 max and I'll fit myself. I'm pretty much decided on a Warrior Samurai S9500 with a synthetic rope. What do you think ?

    Sceptical about fitting snorkel -Defender 200tdi

    Hi I'm thinking about fitting a snorkel so that I can go into deeper water off road. I'm slightly worried about how watertight my air filter box will be. It's a black metal cylindrical effort with a sort of rubber duck bill shaped effort on the end. What's that for and surely it will leak water...

    Blue Smoke Question

    Was out off roading today. Hasn't rained here for a while so not a huge amount of mud. However, I noticed that when I took my foot off the gas ie decelerating and when pointing downhill (possibly coincidence) there was a pile of smoke coming out the back. What does this mean please?
