Never mind the cow, it's the smell of wet whippets and warm Wellies, that's Wellies, which turns the odd country Doris on. Emphasis on the 'odd'

Earlier this week, swapped out my 18 inch wheels for my new 16 inch modulars.
Drives much better on 215/70/16s than on the 235/50/18s.

Today, ordered a set of used hub nut covers. £39 including delivery from Germany - cheapest I could find!

Found where my Landy is leaking diesel from. I'd fit the new pump myself but you need a special tool

Hey, that's really cool. I'll have to have a go myself. We should start a new sticky with people entering photos of their creations. You can never have too many stickies

I'm thinking of 1/2'' steel pipe, I've done some metalwork in the past,
on the Freelander I fixed the creaking rear subframe mounts and made my rear light guards

Drove it again! Coal Pit Saddle Historic Reserve [1000m]

Looking North past Arrowtown [which would be directly behind the FL]. The Mountains in the far distance are the Harris Mountains. The tall peak, at about 1 o'clock from the FL, is Mount Vanguard [1781m]. The nearer peak on the right hand side is the Crown Range and has NZ's highest State Highway across it.

I feel like a proper Freelander mechanic now - got myself a set of Torx sockets and a 32mm socket.
