Mrs nicked my motor today.
Forgot to say you need to accelerate more due to a transfer box change.
Came back moaning she was between gears more instead of just chugging around the countryside in 4th.

She Went B&Q got some wood after driving it round for 60 miles.
 
Replaced block drain plug washer and swapped passenger seat diaphram into my broken drivers seat then cobbled sumat together for the passenger seat, only to find out that the passenger seat is now comfyer, but I couldn't be bother to swap again :rolleyes:
 
Just a quick check over, then drove to three pubs looking for a Sunday lunch (crappy weather and all). Two wouldn't allow dogs, the third had no tables. Home made burgers then, fuggem. Tratter always puts a smile on me face tho'. :p
 
Bought this, Defender has to go pretty quick now :rolleyes:

I've been out and about again. I took Xylia to see the National Wool museum

The tracker seems to have flattened out part of the journey. But that's where we went. Plus we had a look at Fishguard and St Davids too.
Here's a few shots from the National Wool Museum:

I thought I'd be bored but there was stuff to interest me too, such as steam boilers, spinning and weaving machinery and bits of local history. Then we went and had a look at Fishguard and had a bite of lunch:

Then we had a look at the ruins of the Bishops' Palace at St David's.

They still let you climb about on the walls there, so I could take pictures of the architecture from all sorts of angles. So many places have all the interesting details closed off these days, in the interests of conservation and safety. But you can live life on the edge at St David's Cathedral.

Probably nearly 500 miles in all, allowing for trundling around in south west Wales looking at the scenery.

Took the steering wheel off and refitted as it was not in the correct position when travelling in a straight line.
 
I collected the nice shiny new starter motor for mine, just in time to get it fitted and get dirty..LOL.

Cheers
 
Removed front and rear bumpers and sill trims etc ready for waxoyling and I found, well, I'm sure you can guess wot I found.....
 
New rear wheel hub on the D2.

Now to solve the leaks. It seems not to like driving 2K miles a month.

Cheers
