All gone.

What Is It? Certainly not a new purchase, I bought it in June 2008. But it has recently been the subject of a bit of attention over the last 12 months. A 1989 Factory 90 V8 Country Petrol. I bought it because I previously had a 1981 Series 3 Stage 1 V8 which I got rid of many years ago, and I...

Does anyone have any insight into the availability of BF Goodrich 265 75 16 tyres - looks like there's almost none available any more?

Is anyone able to confirm what fuse rating I need for a heated front screen, part number LR058447. Some sources say 20A (John Craddock, for example), some say 30, some say 40. My wiring design will differ depending. Thank you. :)

Hi All. Slowly getting the wagon back together - but could do with some front carpet/matting at some point. The only 2 options I can see are the Lucari Hardura setup and Exmoor do a "premium" carpet set. Of those 2, I think I favour the exmoor trim option. Howqever I'd actually like something...

Morning. I think I am going to replace my fuel tank - while I have the car in bits, it's going to be less effort. Reading through historical threads it seems there's some variation in quality. I'm not hugely keen on spending the £ for an OE one - is there any particular aftermarket one that is...

I've just upgraded my 1989 90 to have LED lights all round. Just thought I'd share my "lessons", since when googling it, there's difference choices & options. 1. Headlights - I like the trucklite headlights because they look pretty close to original. I don't like the "lens" look that many of...

I've been looking around for some options to add a bit more fuel tank capacity to my 1989 90 (fuel tank under the drivers seat) since I only get maybe 110 miles out of a tankful (Because V8). There's doesn't seem to me much choice that I can find - does anyone know of any good options?

Has anyone got one of these fitted? I'm just about to make a little panel that goes in the open area of the dash in the middle to mount a couple of gauges and a carplay headunit (to give me satnav and hitch cams), but I need to add a few switches. I can either make my new panel wide enough to...

I thought some people might be interested in my additional heater. It's a 4.5KW jobbie that I've mounted underneath the cubby. Just a rough job on the cubby for now to see if it all works as planned.

I've got a 1989 CSW V8. Still running a Rover V8, albeit not the original 3.5 carbed one that expired many years ago (now a 3.9 efi). When I eventually replace the chassis, I think I might add a bit more power too. However, I've always felt that as a factory built V8, I should keep a Rover V8...

Please could someone just confirm, since googling gives me mixed responses. currently I have a set of boost alloys, which I think have an ET+33? Along with spacers to make them fit my older axles, which effectively means they come out at about ET0. I’m thinking about changing to steel wheels...

Does anyone happen to know off the top of their head what the thread is for the oil cooler take off that come out vertically downwards, just in front of the sump? I'm going to tidy up my oil cooler install and need a new fitting there. Potentially blanking plug and oil take off plate to replace...

Hi All, I've started cutting the rust out of my bulkhead and found much of the upper inner section is gone, including windscreen supports and vent panel. These are bits that YRM and others don't make repair sections for. What are good replacement bulkhead options these days? My buddy got a...

Hi All, Cracking on with the jobs to do a bit of a refresh on the wagon and since quite a few things are apart, have decided to also refresh the gearbox. Not really up for converting to R380 or Auto, so have stumped up for an ashcroft box using their 6308 sleaved bearings (instead of FRC2301)...

Sunroof. Gone. :)

As part of a bit of a tidy up, I think I'm going to remove the sunroof. It leaks, I've literally never used it in 13 years of ownership and I'd like to make the interior a little less damp and better insulated, along with new rooflinings. I'm assuming 1.5mm NS4 is about right? I'll make a...

Does anyone have a source for the rear upper body corner bracket? Mine is pretty rusty. I've already got all the cappings I need for the tub ready to go, but can't find a source of one of these brackets. Obvsiouly if needs must, I can make my own, but would much prefer if I can buy one ready to...
