    The Big Debate - Britpart or S**tpart?

    tried britpart, but been let down by lack of any discernable quality. so don't use them anymore... been known to renage on above statement when times is hard :) like previous posters, depends on the job... wouldn't be wanting to install britpart valves in the engine for example (if they...

    oh, do you sleep IN your landrover... thank the green oval, thought you were asking if anyone had slept WITH your landrover... what a gentleman does in his own garage is his own business, sir!!

    p gasket on 300tdi - ???

    hmm it clearly isn't the thing i'm thinking it is.. so is it a case of getting the waterpump off??? [i've been topping the coolant off for years, it's doing me head in now!]

    Becoming a country Vicar means Land Rover time

    yep, i'd have to agree - there's some smashing discos out there and will do you better than a freelander. the thing about freelanders is that they are classed by land rover themselves as an 'entry level' 4x4 - if you are seriously going to be travleeing green lanes, a freelander just won't be up...

    when land rovers attack!

    I've had my 110 hard top for getting on six years and unsurprisingly, I've been bitten by my pride and joy a fair few times. most recently i changed me glowplugs (well timed too, given the 2 inch of snow outside) - and managed to get stabbed by a box spanner lying on the wing! me mate was giving...

    Nail your colours to your mast!!

    ta guys - i reckon the fishing pole / gaffer tape solution's workable - i did consider a broom handle, but the flags a bit of a whopper. i'll bung a few pix on when it's done!

    Have we done the right thing ?

    this is a common feature of the landrover marque! my indoor pool's feed is specailly designed to drip right over the accelerator pedal, which ensures a nice wet right foot. i've greased my seals over the entry point and it sems to have stopped it for the mo

    Nail your colours to your mast!!

    Hi Guys. going to the Land Rover heritage junket at the Heritage motor Centre next year - hopefully in the run from Solihull to Gaydon. I feel the need to dangle a flag off me 110 - I want a pole about 8 foot tall, and I want to temporarily attach it to my front bumper. any ideas what sort...
