Just taken out a policy with Performance Direct, after doing a search on Confused.Com. I'm 43 and the S3 is a 2 1/4 petrol 88", no convictions or claims. Total cost with out legal cover £85:) , well happy with that. Mind you on the Confused site £85 was the cheapest quote, but the quotes went up...

My first Landy was a 1957 S1 Hardtop, I had it when I was 17. Paid £850 for it and that was after it had had a full rebuild:eek:

I did the swop on my SWB petrol and find it works just fine .

Tax exempt is good but don't get too hung up on it. You'll get a later series built after 1972 in better condition for the same money. £200 pounds saved per year won't go very far on a tax exempt money pit ! ! !

I'm 44 in Lincolnshire, with a 1976 S3 factory spec which is limited to 3000miles per year £96-00 :D Towergate Classic Motor Tel 0870 9906060

Playing with it cos I haven't broke it yet ! ! !

2 litres of each is what I would order, lets face it even if you have 3/4 of a tin of each colour left it will come in for touching up in future. Also the paddocks paint seemed very good when I used it on mine.

Naw't wrong with that colour :D:D:D

I seem to have got it everywhere including all the floors and foot wells ! ! !:rolleyes:

I've never had any problems with remoulds and because they are normally made with a softer compound the grip levels are normally better, but they do wear quicker.

:doh::doh::doh::doh::D

I would always go for the series every time, a series is for life ! ! ! you'll be able to rebuild it time and time again.

I have been thinking about fitting a 12v inline Bilge blower between the wing vent and heater unit on my series 3 to increase the screen clearing capabilities. Has anyone else fitted one or any ideas would be welcome ? Bilge Blower 12v Marine 4" In-Line Exhaust RULE 240 on eBay (end time...

They look just the sort of thing I had in mind and thanx for posting the pictures, very helpful Thanx :tea:

How very helpful ,many thanx for your help ! ! ! I did do a search and only found 2 or 3 threads in the Series Section which named what car they got the replacement seats from ? If it was up to you newbies wouldn't even bother posting :doh:

I'm looking to replace the 3 front standard defender seats fitted to my S3 with a pair of something a bit more sporty and comfortable and not fit a centre seat this time. There are quite a few for sale on Ebay from out of Rover 25 and 45 MGs at very sensible prices. What seats have others fitted...
