Salisbury Plain. I bet dafts glad he dint drive through this too

After getting my 110 back to driveable a few of us went to play on salisbury plain again on sunday.

Remember where The mad hat man got stuck........

Well this is what it was like in there.

Looks like we MAY owe daft an apolowatsit.......

I wanted to go give it a go but my ballast said no.

Hi Dorset

I gotta do that today. a) cos my rad is blocked and b) cos some neighbour of mine started shouting out the window at me. Something about a filthy Landrover being parked on the road and making the place look untidy?????? I haven't seen a filthy landy. The only thing I can see is a big chunk of mud sat at the side of the road. Blind cow.

tell her to get off her arse, stop whingeing and get the fook outside and wash it - if its that important.

She is one of then compulsive curtain twitchers. Funny how she dint notice it getting done over right outside her window innit?

I bet she thought she had seen the last of it when it vanished for the week.

Then I brought it back all shiny shiny yesterday morning. That probably wiped half the smile off her face.

The when it got back with it plastered last night there wuz definately no smile to be seen.

Well...........except for the one on my face.

She probably paid someone to nick it.

I'd better hose down the seats and dashboard in case they have another go.



I haven't found any replacements yet so at least there is less to burn.

FFS I just sold both the seats out of my 90 for £50. and they'd just been recovered in exmor trim black vinyl covers. The drivers base was a brand new unit. If you'd said you could of had those.

Plenty of other seats will fit. I think someone mentioned Rover 200 coupe seats on another thread. Mg Maestro seat will certainly fit. & bucket seats go cheap on Fleabay all the time.

No. A bit like the peeps I will point out in another couple of photos in a little while.

Three landrovers started coming down the hill towards us so I thought I would try and make the water look deeper than it was. I put my foot down to make a big splash.




you can see one of the landys in the top corner. the other two are out of view. One has a snorkel. One has huge tyres and all 3 are on muds tyres.
