hi, anyone towing an empty trailer from Brighton to Herefordshire in the near future and would be willing to collect a VW Golf for a price?

Thanks to everyone who replied. This is all helpful.

A pal of mine is looking to buy a disco 2 with an LPG conversion but has been warned by someone else that the LPG system can cause the cylinder head to become porous. Is there any evidence for this?

very unlikely to draw air into the system.

Battery for a Mercedes Vito CDI needed, a good second hand battery which you know to hold its charge.

looks like it's out by a tooth, not enough adjustment on the pump sprocket/hub assy. Checked the timing on my own 200tdi 90 and it's dead on. My pal's seems to be a few degrees retarded. Turbo is fine, but thanks for suggestion. Will check the full belt timing and sort that for now.

Thanks for the replies. Have got the landy back (it is a pal's) so will continue the investigation...

Have a 90 200 tdi which has started producing lots of white smoke in the exhaust gas. Have checked the following: cylinder compression, maximum difference between adjacent cylinders only 20 PSI (70 PSI limit), so that's ok. checked injectors by loosening union on each one in turn to see if the...

Going to Brighton this Friday from Herefordshire, can take something small like a diff, alternator etc, or can collect from Brighton to bring back to Hereford. If interested you need to get it to Ross on Wye for Thursday night.

Hi can anyone collect an adjustable tow bar for me from Newton Abbot in Devon and drop in or near Ross on Wye or Malvern in the next two weeks?

Anyone got room for two Defender wings, front panel and bonnet to be collected from Ross on Wye and delivered to Wem? Can anyone do it for this weekend. Have sold these parts to another landy owner, have quoted him the parcelforce price (for 3 items) so if anyone can do it for less he may be...

Could possibly be going to Faversham and Canterbury (6 miles from Herne Bay) late October. Live in Ross on Wye, so that's as close as I could get them to you

hi, anyone travelling between Leicester and Ross on Wye this week or next with room to spare for a Mercedes Vito Engine on a pallet? Will be loaded and unloaded with a crane so need to worry about your back.

A non station wagon 110 is the best mountain bike carrying vehicle I've owned, 3 mountain bikes and a twin child trailer all fitted perfectly without removing any wheels or even folding the trailer flat. My everyday landy is a 90 (which I prefer), but do miss the massive load area of the 110.

Have you tried looking through Brightwells catalogue (weekly 4x4 auctions in Leominster, Herefordshire). Incidentally I should have added, I bought the 110 with the intention of breaking it, however discovered that the chassis was in such good condition, no holes or plates I couldn't do it...

I bought it on ebay. It was a C-reg. The seller had described it simply as a diesel, however I recognised the engine as a 200 tdi, the body was battlescarred, but that's no real concern when it's the right engine with a perfect chassis.

Also, driving forwards with the steering on full lock can help.

to give you some encouragement, I got an ex-military 110 with a 200 tdi defender engine, with a perfect chassis with 6 months MOT for £690. You can be lucky.....

If you seriously expect to get your investment back, you'd have to break it. Then you may surprise yourself and get more than you hoped for. However it would be a shame to break something that's roadworthy. As it is £2000 sounds right.
