evening all, thought I might get some advice, I somehow managed to single handedly catastrophically destroy my TD5 engine of only 112,000 miles 2004 defender 90 I'm the 3rd owner bought 3 years ago..... she's currently in the garage with a quote of just over £10g's for a reconditioned turner...

note to self, don't drive by Barnsley. should I update a hazard warning to Waze users
