Hi all, Just to make you aware that I will be starting up my Evesham Land Rover pub meet again this week. This happens annually from April to September time and is always on the last Wednesday of the month. It would be great is some of you could make it along - it's always difficult getting...

Hi all, Does anyone happen to have either a military roll bar/seatbelt bar that can be fitted to a defender to allow it to have a soft top? I know they can be bought new, but wondered if anyone on here had one first! Cheers Tom

Hi all, On the lookout for an A bar for a defender if anyone has one lying about. Me tail rather than the plastic one. Brackets for spotlights would be great. Oh, the closer to Evesham, Worcestershire the better. Cheers folks.

Hi all, I've got a pair of door bottoms here removed off a series 3. The doors themselves are in very good nick. They are missing the galvanised strip on the top, and also the door cards. They come with the locks but I dint have a key for them. They are very good condition, the panel is...

Right folks, Just been to have a look at a vehicle in a field down the road for a friend. The problem is that unless the vehicle is in 'diff lock' then the car won't drive. Now I'm no expert on these newer things, prefer early series 1s and 2s myself, but can you offer some opinion on if I'm...

Right-ho, Today I tried to remove the front wings on the new 59er, but did I have any luck? Did I heck! The 4 bolts that run down the wing and screw into the bulkhead pillar just seem to spin all day long. On my 1960, I have bolts that have a very wide thread and as such, never sieze and...

Hi all, I've just picked up a new project - a 1959 s2 that has been stood since 1983. It has a BMC 2.2 Diesel engine fitted, which is siezed to buggery. The gearbox is also siezed. I can wiggle the gear lever around in neutral. I managed to get 2nd yesterday, but in can't select 1st 3rd or...

Hi all, It's that time of year again for the Evesham pub meet to start up again. It will be held on the last Wednesday of the month, so this month it will fall on Wednesday 26th March. The location, as with last year, will be the Fish and Anchor Inn, Offenham, Evesham, WR118QT. The...

Hi all, Perhaps a silly question, but is it possible to fit a headlining from a 90 CSW in to a utility 90. Obviously the holes are in the lining for the alpine windows, which my utility roof doesn't have, but apart from that, are there enough places to attach the lining to the roof panel...

Hi folks, Quick question if I may. A friend has a 1997 discovery 1 300tdi. His indicators are not working on the vehicle. The hazard light switch works, and all of the indicators flash when this is pressed, but the indicators do not come on individually when you use the stalk by the wheel...

Apologies if there is a Fred on this already, did search but couldn't see it. I've just realised that the Malvern Spares Day will be on this Sunday 12th Jan. Anyone planning on going? Tom

So, for a good while now my 110 fitted with a discovery 200tdi has suffered from starting issues. I jump in, turn the key, to be greeted by a click. Flat battery? Nope. Ok, jump out, bridge the terminals on the solenoid, and it UsUALLY starts ( sometimes you just hear the starter spinning...

Hi all. I'm after a full height dog guard to fit in me 110 sw. I have got one at the moment, but the top bracket fouls the side panel trim in the vehicle so I haven't fitted it. Does anyone have one lying around. It's the one with straight pins at the top mounting, not 90 degree ones!

Hi all, Unfortunately I come to you with another question! Sorry! I know that this has come up a couple of times on the forum, but I am still a little confused why I'm having these issues. My 200tdi conversion is making a habit of getting hot. In fact, it's usually within about 5 miles...

Hi all, Firstly, im not sure I have used the description right, by header tank, I mean the black reservoir mounted to the wing that is filled with coolant/ Anyway, whenever the engine is running, there is a constant drip from the overflow pipe, even when the reservoir is only half full. Any...

Early theo other evening, I saw a stricken 110 at a crossroads just up the road from my house. As I was in the ****box (VW) I continued driving the half mile home. I left it 15 mins, and then nipped back out, this time in the 110, and spotted him (very slowly limping) towards me. I turned...

Hi all, I have a 1989 110 CSW thatis fitted with a 200tdi. My motor kept the 2.5TD air fiter assembly, which still sits in its original location. My air filters rubber fanny has developed a hefty drip, which leaves a stain on the ground whenever I stop the vehicle. Any idea? Thanks Tom

Hi all, Firstly, I know that there are a few threads relating to this already, but I cant find one that answers my question. My 110 has a boge self leveling unit fitted between the rear axle and the chassis. It appears to work OK, but I need to replace the A frame ball joint. Without the...

Hi all, Hopefully some of you will be able to help with my current situation. The other day, my 110 failed its MOT on a couple of bushes and the suspension turret having excessive corrosion. Fine. No problems there then. A few days later, (today), I came to do a couple of jobs. I think the LR...

Hi all, On my 110, I have military lights, where the lens can be unscrewed to change a bulb rather than having the standard lens with two screws that are always rusted in. My two front sidelight lenses have gone very yellow, and I was wondering if there was anywhere I could get a new...
