    2 Door Range Rover Seat Mounting

    I've been restoring an old 2 door range rover classic slowly... over a few years... as a result of this my memory of where everything goes is probably not what it should be! One issue I'm having is I cannot for the life of me remember how the rear portion of the front seats attach to the...

    Previous RHD Conversion and Overseas Declaration Mystery...

    Tidy. Cheers guys, it does sound the most likely. The V5 doesn't list it as an import. the only references are; "Section 3. Special Notes" "1. Was registered/used overseas. Declared manufactured 1981." "Section 4. Vehicle Details" "B Date of first registration 01/02/1981" "[B.1] Date of...

    Ah right well that would make sense. what does that mean in terms of insurance, I guess the vehicle still needs to be declared as an import for insurance purposes? Also any idea what department at la driver to try? I guess its not a simple contact us on the website? Cheers for the...

    Nope, no holes in the bulkhead. The fuses are in place where the steering collumn would go on the LHS. Everything appears to be universaly corroded too such as footwells, steering box mountings, transmission tunnel. Dashboard doesn't seem to have any more holes in it either and the radio is...

    Previous RHD Conversion and Overseas Declaration Mystery...

    Cheers for the info guys. A few things it could be it seems! I looked at filling out a "V888". £5 to the DVLA and they send you what previous history they have with regards to registration. Or so the theory goes anyway. Are there any tell-tales to look out for to see if a car has actually...

    Interesting idea, has anyone else heard of vehicles being marked as LHD to indicate an export market rather than actual drive side?

    Previous RHD Conversion and Overseas Declaration Mystery...

    Having re-found my enthusiasm for restoring my old 2 door RRC after a period of laziness i came across something odd. I never actually checked the VIN before but did so today. All seems good but one of the VIN letters lists it as a 3.5 manual LHD but its definitely RHD currently! The V5 does...

    top speed

    I just read in a book on defenders that the top speed for a N/A 2.5D is 68mph. So i guess its about right.

    Off Road Insurance

    Well i found the cheapest insurer for me was CIS. They say they don't cover you offroad. I know you dont need to be covered off road but what happens if you go to a 4 x 4 event or centre ? And say if someone got injured on private ground and your insurance wasnt for offroad who would be liable...

    Advice on first landy

    I'm going to be buying my first landy very soon. I am looking at a 200 Tdi 90 as they seem to get the best MPG per money atm. I have in the region of £3-4000 to spend. From looking at autotrader recently the number of available 90's seems to have declined and the price of those available...
