Afternoon All, bought a Fairey Overdrive a couple of month back and today was the day to service it and get it ready for the fit. On draining the oil I noticed metal flakes, so took the cover off to find that one of the C clips had broke off, and the thin washer (5th one down was bent and...

you have hit the nail bang on there my friend. I bought the vehicle back with the view to fix and keep her, it doesn’t worry me that the V5 log book would say Cat S on it. I bought the truck to use both at work and around the farm, so I will be keeping her for a long time. I have used the money...

It hasn’t been wrote off mate, it’s a Cat S which means it can be fixed, they said that the cost to repair her would out cost the value of the car, so offered for me to find a new Ser 3 for the same value or take the money, I took the money and bought the car back.

Yeah he was insured, my insurance company claimed the money from his insurance company, but I only dealt with my insurance company, at the end of the day, I got my money back and I paid to get it back, to fix up. I’m happy as I’ve a Ways wanted to restore and fix a old Landy up, now I get that...

No, his fault, he turned into me. I claimed of my insurance company

I didn’t let the other insurance company scrap it, it was my insurance company that took the car away to valuate the damage caused, as the car had only been bought a month before hand for £4K and the damage that was caused, they decided that the cost of repairing the car, out weighed its value...

Managed to get a hold of a second hand one £30, well chuffed

I only had her for just over a month, when the knob jockey pulled out in front of me , the lad that I bought it off had just replaced the rear quarter and the rest of the chassis is solid with no holes anywhere, can’t afford a whole new chassis at the moment, and I think replacing the front...

Lol door wasn’t shut and the bottom panel is all unbolted, it was still straight lol.

That plate you are referring to is part of the front bumper lol I had to grind it off lol

Yeah it’s insured, been sent away and they Cat S it, they paid out and I bought it back off them for £800. It needs a front quarter chassis welded on, hence the strip down. I have got most of the parts needed to replace the damaged ones, but still need to buy front prop, sump, and of course a...

Cheers for the advice, think I’ll wait till a second hand comes up, it’s not going anywhere for a few months lol lots of work still to do to the old girl

Better photo

Cheers for the link, bloody expensive huh

Yeah they are the same

Evening all, so after having a accident after only owning “TIDY” for a month, I’m stripping the old girl back and repairing where needed. I noticed today that the front prop went through the side of my sump. Looked everywhere for one today, but drawing a blank!! Does any one have one kicking...

Afternoon all, quick question please, just about to start stripping down my Ser 3 109, thing is that I’m replacing all the leaf springs and should normal use the axle and place the axle stands under the leaf springs, where can I safely put the axle stands on the chassis? Cheers

Cheers

Sorry and cheers for Re-direction
