Been down the Barf n West to see the LZ crew. Discovered that all of me exhaust is missing from the rear wheel back, oh and it blew a coolant hose on the way home.

Is it trying to tell me sommat about LZ in real life rather than across the internets.

I like the concept!

I have removed the spare wheel from the rear door, and removed the wheel carrier bracket from the door. Now it sounds like a door when I swing it shut and hopefully wont make that awful squeaking sound while driving along.

Also ordered 5 22mm grommets to fill the holes in the rear door skin.

Dragged trailers about packing up a weekend scout camp. First time towing anything but the ninety performed well :) Could do with a slightly lower towbar fitting though.
 
went to have a nice easy day yesterday. changed my thermostat then washed her. then got a call saying my mate had a tree on his car?!? he wasn't wrong about half ton of tree had snapped from 30 foot up and landed on his corsa as he was taking 2 of his mates to play football. so landy to the rescue and an hour wait for the council to cut the tree off of his car and my truck decided that it had a 6 litre airlock so was heading towards overheat while driving but would rapidly drop to normal temp on idle. so got home and emptied nearly 4 kettles of hot water into the cooling system. hopefully be alright now

Been doing some work on my wife's Toyota Auris, changed the rear brake pads. Noticed the protective rubber cover on the brake cylinder was torn. Thought I would pop down to our local Toyota garage to get a replacement. Took the brake caliper which houses the cylinder. £90 for the kit or £300 for the complete caliper. I recently changed the brake cylinder on the back of my Defender. £10 each. I told the wife she will have to get a Defender. Managed to buy a kit online for £27 including post. Another reason why Defenders are great.
