Tried to pressure wash it out but hey hardly have any pad left..... looks like another job, never done one before... so here goes........ will pop down to the motor factors tomoz, and my tyre has gone in for repair, small side wall prick, so had an intertube put in.

So you can now add on to the list a set of front and rear pads as well....lol

Didn't know about the puncture.
Just picked up a start motor ftom Witham then the astra decided to blow its wiper fuse. As well as the two spare i had.

Disco's still going wrong after the weekend:mad::eek::doh:, I got a rumble in the top front of my engine, Put a screw driver on the water pump, and around the area, and the nosie is deff coming from the pump, sopse I got to do that as well.

So heres the list

1 tyre - Now with innertube in
Front and Rear Break Pads
Number Plate
Water Pump.

So the sunday of fun has cost me...... too much.....so what what a day:D:D:D:D:D:D
 
The joy of landrover ownership.

I have to take the handbrake drum off to find a brake fluid leak and change the shoes. Then take all the wheels off to clean and check the brakes all round. Then the belts need changing and the alternator is noisy so i best check that out at the same time.

Then it will be time for a cuppa, or a beer if anyone fancys a quick one this weekend.

Now that is a great plan. :)
 
Hmmmmmm. It could be possible.

As long as we can camp out and cook outdoors to keep costs down. we could even rope in some co drivers to share the costs as well.

I'm liking that idea a lot.
