    The end of Sayers MR (Heathrow)

    I have noticed today that Sayers MR - decent little Landy indy out by Heathrow - has closed its doors. I think the guys have simply retired. Shame as they were a nice bunch who offered good service at a reasonable price. If anyone knows of a local alternative I am all ears as I need to have...

    P38A Can I buy this exp. tank connector?

    P38A Whats it worth?

    Hi all I am thinking of replacing my P38 after 4 years of decent ownership. Prices are all over the place so I thought I might gain some opinions here on what I should advertise it for. Its a 99 with the later Thor V8. It had the block replaced with a Turner item by a LR specialist some time...

    P38A Who in the South East can replace my heater matrix?

    Hi all Think I need my heater matrix replacing. RHD, '99, Thor. I have looked at the guides - looks an extensive job and although I have done the O rings I am not sure I have the time/space to tackle it. My usual garages, RR London in Battersea and Sayers MR in Heathrow, don't fancy doing the...

    P38A One for you coolant experts...

    Dear all - happy new year! Haven't been on the forum much apart from scouring for a 109 series due to a totally reliable P38! That never lasts does it.... Last year I changed the O rings just above the transmission tunnel and have enjoyed no coolant loss and dry carpets. Recently I have been...

    HI all I am after two small bits front washer jet setup that pokes through the bonnet (whilst cleaning under the bonnet I whacked the washer jet tube elbow and snapped the tube off which feeds the jet) - are these parts common to other rovers of the time? front drivers seat height increase...

    hi all Following having a new drag link assy fitted (not by me) my steering wheel is off centre. Is this something that is simple to put right? I.e by loosening parts of the Assyrian, shifting the wheel and re-tightening? Cheers Josh

    Classic Does this represent good value?!

    There are a few lhd 3dr examples surfacing from dry climates. I can't help feeling they represent great value if the body/chassis checks out. What do people think? The lhd wouldn't bother me, though I reckon I would convert to V8 after a while...

    P38A I rings done. Coolant still appearing....

    Hi all After a jubilant few weeks following mission O ring, I have coolant in the foot well again. When I did the job I was sure to check it had all sealed properly again etc. Could there be any other connection this is seeping from? Weird thing is, it seems to collect right by the door...

    P38A Can you take your car to another MOT station if it fails?

    Hi all My P38 failed its test today on high emissions. First time I've been to this centre - never even had a warning on emissions before. They are suggesting it needs an entire exhaust system including cats which is probably right. My question is - as I am loathe to spend the money at this...

    Cracking door holds

    Does anyone know of a proper sort for this door cracking noise. I know the worn pin/bad design causes it but can I just get new parts? (ie where to buy new parts rather than just beating in a bigger pin) The noise really ruins the entry and exit to the otherwise lovely car!
