Hi all, I finally got round to buying a radio and speakers for my 110 today, hopefully we're nearly ready to go, just need to earth it somewhere. My idea is to attach the earth to this nut in the fusebox, I reckon this should be connected to bulkhead and should be fine? But not knowing the...

Hi all, I just took me 110 200tdi down the petrol station and back to get some milk (about 4 miles). When I got back red fluid was dripping out from near the front, from a brown reservoir I'm nearly certain is clutch fluid. It looks like the fluid had been leaking either out the top, or around...

Hi all, I have 4 large architects type plan chests to sell, made out of metal and lockable. Would it be worth trying to sell these as tool storage chests for spanners, screwdrivers etc as an alternative to the SnapOn? Does anyone use similar chests for this sort of thing? Or are they no use for...

Hi all, The plastic grill on the top of the wing by bonnet had a couple of screws loose, and must have been caught by the wind in the right place last night as it's not there any more! I've been looking about on internet, I only want a standard black plastic grill like was there before, but...

Hi all, Back again with another question! My 110 has had the 200tdi conversion by a previous owner, and there is no fan at all. So far have been alright, but got stuck behind a lorry going up a hill today and the landy was getting a bit hot, so I would like to put in an electric fan. Two...

Hi all, I'm struggling here, and yes I am an idiot with very little mechanical knowledge! I have a 110 that was originally a 2.5NA I believe, but has been fitted with a 200tdi by a previous owner. This morning I went out to find yesterday at some point the alternator drive belt had snapped...

Hi chaps, looking for some advice... about two weeks ago I brought 4 nice shiny new General Grabber AT2s for me landy. Tyres were fitted at 2pm, when I went outside the house at 8pm that night two were too flat to drive on!! Managed to get a lift into work the next day, and phoned the tyre...

got given this today, don't really want it as it's not really my sort of thing. So, first one to respond to thread gets it, PM me address to post it to. I'll even pay for postage! Land Rover - The Unbeatable 4x4 K & J Slavin and G N Mackie Published 1984 cheers, Joe

Hi all, I have a 110 pickup (non hi cap) and every now and then have to carry longer items - ladders, 12' wooden rails, etc. My method so far has been to tie them down to the tailgate and resting on the cab roof, so as not to stick out too far backwards and possibly overbalance! What I would...

Ok, it may not count as "long" to those of you who drive your landys to Africa and back... but it's long to me! Got me G reg 110 last October, as a work vehicle (self employed). Since then I have done roughly 8000 miles driving for work, so never more than 30-40 miles from home. Next week I...

I broke rule number one of defender ownership... and left my toolkit behind! Been working for a tree surgeon today and tomorrow, thought I won't need my chainsaws and toolbox tonight so left them in his lockup. Halfway home, my indicators stopped working! Pretty well every screwdriver, knife...

Don't know if this is old news, but thought I'd share it to help some of you save a few quid... Since I got my 110 pickup I have driven down to Bristol and back in it once, which involved going across the (old) Severn Bridge. I paid roughly £11 for the toll, which I was expecting to as a...

Hi chaps, Over the weekend, my G reg 110 pickup has started squeaking when turning right. It doesn't do it all the time, sometimes it's just a "ting" noise sometimes a proper squeak. Noise seems to be coming from the drivers side wheel - is this something to panic over, or just something to...

Hi all, I'd like to get an ifor canopy for my 110 pickup (not hicap), is the hi capacity version the same in terms of dimensions etc? Will a hicap canopy fit on mine? don't spose anyone has one for sale by the way... cheers, Joe

Hello, I have a problem with my headlights! If anyone can offer any advice please, I'd be very grateful... For a while now they have been tempermental when the engine is first started from cold, the engine has to run for a few minutes before they come on, and at first they flick on, off, on...

Hello everyone, I brought a G reg 110 fitted with a 200tdi engine yesterday, it's been a while since I drove a landy and took me a while to get used to the steering and gears again! I used to have a series 3, but had to get rid of it due to money issues. I became self employed working in...
