This is what I used in my 2a Station wagon. Top of the bracket bolts through where the roof meets the side under the spline wibdow and the narrow end through the c pillar. The other end of the anchorage goes through the angled raised second row floor with a spreader plate.

Hello. My mate is needing a top half hinge for the passenger side for his rivety countery rebuild. Colour doesn't matter as will be getting painted. Please get in touch if you can help. Many thanks for looking. Toby Ps. Image for clarification as he doesn't trust my description

I have RX8 seats in mine, both heated and drivers is electric. They are very comfy and have the security of the head restraint.

Found them cheers

Have you a link for that as please?

Howdy folks, My mate us looking for 3 series LWB rims for his S2 refurb project. They will be blasted and painted so they don't need to be pretty. As close to cosmopolitan Bradford as possible ideally. Many thanks for your time. Toby.

I generally like Car SOS even live with the fake 'blag' routines but today's LR special part 1 was rubbish. What has Ross Kemp in an xjs and a monster truck to do with restoring a LR. Hardly any S2. Might not even bother with the second part.

I have a 69 Station Wagon and fitted defender seals after cutting the lip if all door apertures with and angle grinder. Remember to cover glass so you don't get shards melting into the glass. The seals fit well with just the bend half way down a challenge. Seem to be doing the job keeping the...

Gone with the longer one and seems fine. Could the 'new' one be a 200tdi?

I have 2 thermostats. Both open but the new one I bought is shorter than the one I took out. Which is the right one? Also when fitted I guess the little vent bit is at the top? Cheers

Cheers. Bought another thermostat so will test that and the one I will take out tomorrow and fit the best performer. If they both work I will have to presume that I was chicken and perhaps didn't let it heat enough but I doubt it. Will also have to get a temp sender that works with my dash gauge...

What does the pin do and can it only be fitted at the top? Thanks

Hi. I have a 300tdi in my 69 series 2 project (been run about a mile to test the brakes). I have just replaced the water pump and thermostat and it appears when left idling and revved that the top hose stays cool when all the others are hot. Could this be anything other than the thermostat? When...

Hi. As per the title. Are the 3 row aluminium rads- worth the extra on a 300 TDI or is the standard rad more than adequate? Cheers

Hi Jim. I'm looking for one for my S2 project that should soon be my daily driver. Would you consider posting at my cost? Cheers Toby

I really like the Classic magazine as pretty much everything in it is relevant to my S2 SW.

Ok. Didn't know there were rules to be fair just seemed appropriate to the post and cut and pasted it from another forum in a hurry so apologies if I ruffled any feathers. Happy for it to be edited out.

Hi Turboman. I enjoy hearing a point of view but the post originally was asking for advice in fitting a 300tdi in the 6 cylinder Landrover not whether I should do it. As far as misreporting the engine change, although it still seems a bit in the air it appears fitting a Landrover engine with no...

Fortunately I like the sound of a diesel and have very little need of going near a city. The LR shouldn't lose its historic status and I am likely to have it MOT'd for safety anyway just to check my work. I considered lpg but I don't want to lose any storage space in the vehicle and again I do...

The 6 is from a Rover P5 so nothing original. The output new was 134bhp so a useful upgrade if you're wanting to use it on weekends. The LR is a factory six cylinder but it's not very original so unlikely to be an appreciating asset. The LR will be a daily driver when sorted and reliable so the...
