He's deleted his post cos he was being an arse from looks of things

Sorry about that guys

It was my reprobate idiot lunatic of a mate who is here from Canada and was on the forum whilst un-supervised.

Sorry if he offended anyone but he spent 15 years in the paras and fought at the battle of goose green so he is rather opinionated and difficult to handle.

Hope all is forgiven - I have moved him from the study to the lounge and settled him into the sofa with a botttle of jack daniels and some ice!!!!

all the best to doc and the guys

no he is not bipolar - he just thinks anything other than british engineering is crap

I told him in no uncertain terms that everyone is entitled to their opinions and that if someone wants to put a jap V8 into a landie they can.

He looked at me for a few seconds and then told me I didn't know what the f**k I was talking about and carried on reading his copy of classic car magazine.

small teaser of my 90 powered by 1uzfe /asin warner auto/1.22:1 lt230 and on special tracks

Land Rover 90 v8 (special) first run - YouTube

25mph to 50mph in a national speed limit dash cam angle makes distance appear closer than it is.

less than half throttle Play LOUD notice tyre noise and also grumbling rear diff may possibly be heard
