    New Landy just bought... A couple of quick questions please...

    Thx for this... They are driving lights, however mine have two circular lights on each side... I'll look into getting them re-wired for sides only and not main beam... Thx for the advice... :)

    New Landy just bought... A couple of quick questions please...

    OK... this perhaps is the issue... The current set up is that the bumper lights are on when side lights are put on and then obviously still on with main lights as well... Thus being like Blackpool illuminations... So the bumper lights should not be on at the same as headlights, but can they be...

    New Landy just bought... A couple of quick questions please...

    They're def pointing int the right direction as they light up the left of the road, as opposed to flooding the opposite carriageway... I think they just need dipping... The lights were put in by the previous owner and unfortunately I don't have the dates for this...

    New Landy just bought... A couple of quick questions please...

    Thx for this... I am trying to speak to Craddock but getting them to respond is proving easier said than done... I have sent them the list of 'bits' the previous owner installed and just want them to tell me what I need to make it all 'fit' and work... RE the headlights... The guy installed...

    2nd time new to the site

    Hi folks... Just thought I would pop in and say hi (again)... It's been several years since I was here, after selling my old P plate Landy, and now back after 5 years, I think, with an 11 plate pick up... I'm not the best with cars, so no doubt I'll have lots of stupid questions so please go...

    New Landy just bought... A couple of quick questions please...

    New Landy just bought... A couple of quick questions please...

    Hi folks... Back with my 2nd Land Rover (90), al;though this one slightly newer... My last one was a Pplate and have opted to go newer this time with an 11 plate, due to the need for it to be slightly more reliable.... So, a couple of questions based around my journey home for collecting it...

    Hi folks... On top of the above... Can someone please let me know if I should be looking out for water pumps needing to be changed? and at what mileage should they have been done...? Thx in advance...

    Some questions re 90 improvements

    Marmaduke, I spoke to them yesterday actually... They want £200 to fit it, but really am not good with these types of things... I guess it is more about not having the tools... What do you need to cut it out? Interestingly tho, the guy advised me not to put a blindspot window in a newer van as...

    Some questions re 90 improvements

    Hi folks... Have seen a 90 that I am considering buying but I have a couple of questions for those in the know please.. How easy is it to change the central cup holder to a cubby box? If you were buying a 2010/11 plate defender panel van, would you suggest putting 'blindspot' windows in the...

    Defender 90 Road Tax...?

    Thx all for the advice... So looks like my 07-10 plate affordable market, is putting my slap bang in the middle of the circa £500 mark... perhaps worth thinking another grand for a 2011 would be the same as paying £2000 over 4 or so years on a 10 plate... ...and it really hacks me off looking...

    Defender 90 Road Tax...?

    Thx folks... 109inches, I'm not basing my decision around cheap tax... But it is always better, IMO, to think about all angles to help keep costs down... I've owned a Defender before so understand what you're saying... My last one spent more time int eh garage than on the road... :( So...

    What can I get for £14k?

    Thx all for your comments... 300bhp/ton, I appreciate you like your Jeeps but unfortunately, I would like a defender...:( My last one I sold for slightly more than I bought, with very little extra work out on it... This I like... I need to be sure of whatever I buy holding its price well, and I...

    What can I get for £14k?

    Depreciation is a huge factor for me, as I'll be keeping the wagon for several years and need to know that the arse is not going to fall of it, with ref to resell price... Apart for the trips to the alps, I'll be doing very little mileage in it... So hopefully will keep that down... I need a...

    What can I get for £14k?

    But would a discovery hold the price as much a s defender does... From memory, Defenders hold their value well, and I'm guessing will be better now, due to the line being cancelled? I do like the Discovery, but would want a D4 if going down that line, and I don't think I could afford that? Thx...
