Selling my Defender so no further need for Nanocom I'm told they go for about £450 on Fleabay so I suggest £400 should be about right. Very little use. Complete with lead. Collection from High Wycombe area.

Saw an episode of Vintage Voltage today where a Defender was converted to electric. Looked like a decent job. Supposedly capable of 0 - 60 in 5.5 sec, top speed around 100mph and a range of up to 200 miles if not driven at those speeds. Supposedly pretty good off road, too. Very slightly...

I have just replaced all the oils on my year 2000 Defender and wondering if there is anything else I should do as preventative maintenance. Ex European forces so I think it was reasonably looked after until about 2010 but very low mileage and standard 5,000 / 10,000 mile service items done...

Looking at the prices of snatch rings. Upwards of £65 for most with any sort of load rating on them, about £20 - £30 for FleaBay specials. I would love to see some destruction test comparing these to see how they fail. I'm not about to rush out and buy anything unbranded to do with lifting or...

I have had a good look on the forum but can't find anything useful. I would like a winch for self recovery once in a blue moon. Not worried about how fast it works as long as it gets me unstuck. Needs to be able to unstick a fully laden 110. Deep mud / sand / ditches. Not dragging it up the...

Can anyone tell me what the 8 way Lucar connector block is for with the following colours? Black Red Red / Yellow Blue / Yellow. It's behind the dash alongside the radio connectors for power and speakers. Thank you.

I had been considering replacing cracked 110 windscreen myself. Insurance excess £250. Autoglass quote was about £210 for glass and replacement rubber fitted so I had to pay the full amount. I decided on Autoglass. I got an appointment within a couple of days. Their fitter got the screen in...

My year 2000 Defender 110 is leaking on both sides now. Nothing unusual, I'm sure, but I would like to slow it down a bit. Is it possible to replace the foam strip below the windscreen panel without taking the roof off?

Considering a new set of Koni Heavy track Raid shocks for my 3.5 ton rated TD5 defender X reg. This permanently runs heavily laden. I see two options available for the rear, 0 - 40mm and 40 - 60mm. Is this measurement of lift above standard? It's ex military with dual coil springs on the rear...

I recently changed all the locks on my year 2000 TD5 Defender. All well for a few days but now the passenger door is locked and cannot be unlocked from outside or inside. What's my best option for getting it open?

Help required for occasional welder with failing eyesight. My welding used to be pretty reasonable but is pretty hopeless now as I can't see what I'm doing. Plenty of magnifying lenses available for welding helmets for Mig etc, but I'm struggling to find anything for gas. Either 50mm lenses...

Just had the rear widow on my Defender broken. It's the one that's held in with mastic. Can anyone offer any advice for replacement? Which mastic to use? Thank you.

The shocks on my year 2000 TD5 defender are on their way out and I'm looking at Konis as a replacement. It's ex military and has uprated suspension with twin coil springs on the rear. I would be grateful for any help as to which model to use - Raid, Heavy Track etc. Not sure what else I need...

I have a LHD Defender X reg, year 2000 with speedo in KMH. Considering a dial conversion from Lockwood or KMH-MPH. It looks as though the speedo needs to be taken apart and the needle removed and replaced. Has anyone done this successfully? Is it pull off, screwed on...

Help needed with an X reg 110 TD5 Defender, please. All is well when cold but after about 20 mins of driving the steering gets stiff when the wheel is turned more than about 20 degrees about any given point. If I were to turn the wheel an amount to the left it would be ok between that point...
