Hi all! I have been a member on here before when I had a Range Rover, some swine wrote that off though

I've spent some time in the wilderness (BMW!) but have now returned to Land Rover ownership. I picked up my Defender tonight and I'm already planning what to do first.

It's a 1990 200Tdi with loads of history and a solid chassis (so far) I'll be having a proper look over it this weekend, I'll get some pics up soon as well.

I've already been looking through the forum and found plenty of advice but be warned - I intend to run it on WVO and know nothing about it, dumb ass questions are gonna follow!

Definitely get a disklok. Worth its weight in gold for piece of mind.

Do the disklok things really work? I do want to keep the little 90.

From the research I've done, yes. I got one 95 quid delivered with a free bag. Best price I could find.

Luckly enough mine came with the car as Rikwison says they are worth it
takes a few goes to get used to it but now it's second nature

They are all metal so no plastic to be broke ..
