Cheers.
I see you have the same location as me near Hull haha. What landrover have you got?
Yeah i want to get the forum sorted as id like to have a look at some landys to help me pick what i want. And once ive got one id like to do some group days and meets etc
Sadly don’t have a landy at the moment, over the last 10 years I have had contract cars but I am thinking of getting something sorted next year
I ain’t far away from you, in a little pokey village a few miles to the east of you.They are a nice bunch on the forum and the put up video's from time to time on youtube

I escaped from Hull about 45 years ago, I wouldn't really want to go back either if I was being honest
and anyone that has a ham licence must be a bit suspicious If you find anywhere good to go landing let me know, i'm quite close to hessle when i'm home - my dad plays golf at Cottingham
can you see the bridge from your house then?
Hmm just about if it wasn't for a few trees, can see the river in the distance
yeah i will i think it will be a little bit till I'm up and running but i have been having a look about and i think there is some little bits not miles away

haha a few miles east, jeez that is the back of beyond out that way towards Withernsea. Yeah i will check the videos out now
I think I'm kinda lucky its not actually Hull, just outside
I don't think it deserves all the bad press there are other place that are just as bad and some that are worse skippyfx140

Oh bugger I have been rumbled
well not quite in costa del withernburg, I am at the arse end of Ottringham True its not all of Hull just certain parts like any big citys really they all have bad bits, even around here sometimes if it cant be nicked, wreck it!

Yeah your right there. It's got some good people.
Ahh cool I used to work at salt end but have very rarely been any further east.
Oooo down south
no wonder you don't like that. Need to get back up to Yorkshires green and pleasant land Went to look at a 300 tdi pickup today. It's done 160k full service history and engine seems to be sound. Need a repair to the back axel were the stay bar mount has rusted away and two small chassis patches at the back. The issue I'm worried about is the front transfer box shaft has a lot of play in the bearing and he said that's what the whiting noise is, he has a new bearing to change its not fitted. And 4th gear is a bit rough he has said?
I know that's pretty vague but any idea if it's a simple fix or if I should run away? I am interested as its a great price and in fairly good nick overall. Bulkhead looks really good.
Any help much appreciated

Ahh cool what did you get? Have you joined the hull group or anything?
It's £1800 so I know I can't be too picky

Shes a 81 series 3 diesel ,I got it about a year ago, and its been with chris missin down dunswell lane ( if you don't know him hes awesome and got a few for sale too). Only got her on the road 2 days ago .loads of fun to drive , never been green laning tho , im just looking to see if theres any nearby ?. Not joined any clubs yet either. Im not really up on how much they cost , is 1800 reasonable with all that to do? How much will repairs cost?
Ahh that's sounds cool
I will have to have a look at that place then, is it like a car dealership or just at a house? I think there's limited lanes close but there seems to be a few up on the moors.
I'm going to ring round a bit to get some ideas of the cost tomorrow

Salt End gives me the creeps I dread to think what would happen if there was ever a hiccup at that place.
