A pack of very old french playing cards and a little green toy dinosaur stuffed behind the side window trim in my CSW

Wrestled off my tub cappings, or what was left of them. Replaced them with galvinised ones from YRM. Didn't take a pic of the finished article because I was so knackered.

Have a look at limited milage too unless having a limit doesn't suit your usage. I have 6000 miles a year limit because I only really use it evenings/weekends. It makes a big difference on the price, at least it did when I was 18, I just haven't bothered to remove it from my policy so not sure...

Call them up and speak to them. If no joy with Aviva go straight to Flux and see what they can do. I nearly wet my knicks when I heard my first quote from them.

Depends. What is your policy on sandwiches?

Flux insured me for £1500 ish on my Ninety when I was 18 which was miles better than everyone else. My funniest quote ever was £11k for an old 1.8TD Mondeo.

Just needs a live and earth surely.

If I can do it in a 200tdi, you can do it in a TD5.

It's a clever design by Land Rover. It slowly leaks out and you slowly top it up. So you have a constant supply of fresh oils going in.

Was that behind the fuse box? I had one in mine so might be standard?

Is it leccy window and central locking on the door? Does your Defender have leccy windows/central locking? It'll fit fine as long as you have the correct door striker and have a way of operating the lock/window. I'm guessing the door will still have a manual lock tab so you can unlock it by...

Really enjoyed these two episodes. Hopefully there'll be more to come! And I am very jealous of your workshop!

I would have thought constant pressure wouldn't be the best for the lines/cylinders/calipres. Especially if the brakes seize on. Can't beat that for security though I suppose!

Converted from CSW to ragtop :) Trim out and tailgate fitted Roof off Hoop and stick set on Canvas on Not a bad couple of days :) (I know it ain't a Defender)

Thanks Marmaduke. Mine's an 87 so hopefully mine will be the same as yours

Hello Gents, I'm in the process of converting my Ninety CSW to a ragtop. I've got most of the bits and waiting on delivery from Exmoor Trim now for the tilt, seat belt bar and hoop set. I have a question about about the tub cappings as mine are past their best so need doing anyway. I see...

I bought a new fulcrum with the ball joint already pressed in because I didn't have a press and mine was just about moveable by hand, that's how they are when new. They only flop around when they're worn out and need changing!

Any idea what colour green this is? PO painted it and I want to paint some new doors and tailgate!

Mine's pretty nippy. When I had the 1:4 I'd just pull away in 2nd because 1st was too low. My 200tdi came from a Disco and I've played with the off-boost fuelling if that helps.

1:4 as far as I know.
