Glad you got it sorted. I was going to ask whether you were sure it was the head gasket or the rocker.

@Bakerstreet: Leaking water from the roof if nothing. I used to have to chip the ice off the inside of the windscreen on my old S2A.

Is it worth getting inward facing seats in my 90 or should I get a decent pair of forward facing?

Cheers grimmer, I bet I've seen you out and about at some point, what do you think about the seats in the rear? Forwards or inwards?

Not sure to be honest pal, i took the load area seats out of my 110 because I only ever have the dogs in there.

I am not sure - on the newer models due to changes in the rules - inward seats are no longer allowed and new Def's have forward facing....

Not sure how it works on a pre-rule change model if you can refit inward seats or not....

I love these quotes! "if there's oil on the outside there's oil on the inside"

I think my favourite is

"land rovers dont have oil leaks, they're just marking they're territory" hahaha

"If its not got any oil leaks it means there's no oil in it", there's another on for you.

One from Ireland from a mate who lives in Sligo. He went to look at a 90 belonging to a farmer and asked whether she burnt any oil. The answer?

She probalby would if she had any........
