    Choices, choices, choices. New tyres.

    My original General Grabber TRs are now at the end of their life, after 43k miles. There are a hundred and one different options for the new ones, but I reckon it’s down to a choice between four; Continental ContiCrossContact AT, Michelin Latitude Cross, General Grabber AT3 and GG TRs again...

    New Tyres - What about the spare?

    Hi, my Defender needs four new tyres. It's got General Grabber TRs on it at the moment. I have no problem getting these again, but if I choose a new tyre, what is the usual practise with the spare?

    Defender 90 Coughing When Cold

    Ok, so it doen't actually cough, but that's what it feels like the vehicle is doing until it reaches normal temperature. I've read loads of posts on this forum that describe various ailments when starting off from cold, but I haven't seen this particular condition described. It's a 2008...

    Hello from Devon

    Hi, I've just bought a Defender 90. My main car is a VW Passat and compared to that it's an uncomfortable, steamed up, loud, bouncy nightmare. So why do I grin so much when I'm out in it? It was a shiny, waxed clean thing only a week ago. Now it's a filthy, muddy, mess. I like it that way. I...
