    UK return for an Afirrcan Overland truck

    It is difficult CMR, your problem is that any car in Kenya is expensive. The new price plus the duty, even on secondhand cars means taking them elsewhere and selling them isn’t economically viable. 12M KES is £69,096 according to xe.com today, which didn’t include the money you spent on...

    Disco 1 Ignition wiring, specifically on a QRF 10024 ignition barrel?

    Ahhhh, understood, my apologies once again. My Mk1 started as a 200TDi but now has an auto 3.9 V8 EFi (with a Mk1 type gearchange), possibly from a Range Rover, so it is a bit of a crossover. I guess that is why the Mk2 wiring diagram seems to work for me. Don’t you worry Sierrafery, my...

    Disco 1 Ignition wiring, specifically on a QRF 10024 ignition barrel?

    Apologies, it is on my Mk1, but agreed, it could be on numerous Landies. Plot thickens a little. The black and white pair are closed with key in 1, 2 & 3 but not 0 so that makes sense for key in sensor. Guessing I can just solder those together? The orange/white and red/white pair are open...

    Disco 1 Ignition wiring, specifically on a QRF 10024 ignition barrel?

    Having searched and found interesting threads like this, https://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/land-rover/discovery-2-ignition-barrel-wiring-diagram.385882/ I’m still wondering what two different pair of wires on my ignition barrel are (see last picture in this post). I’m happy with this diagram...

    What is this metal part for? Help a girl figure out!

    Guessing they are after market tie-down strap anchor points. Off a roof rack perhaps?

    Some here, tempted with the ‘auto’ / max torque one myself. https://www.pipercams.co.uk/product-category/car/rover/rover-v8-3-5-3-9-long-nose?_gl=1*1r8aj7p*_up*MQ..*_ga*NjQ3MTgyNDY3LjE3NTEzMDk0Mzg.*_ga_TC4FFWWL1E*czE3NTEzMDk0MzckbzEkZzAkdDE3NTEzMDk0MzckajYwJGwwJGgw

    Freelander 2 Lightbar feed

    Ah, sorry. I thought you were going to have the lighter on a separate switch (like mine is). Re-read your first post and got it now. perhaps a feed from the ignition (so it is def off with the key out) then going through the high beam switch? Nodge seems to know best?

    Freelander 2 Lightbar feed

    Get a multimeter out and find the 12V live at the ignition key? Run a line from that?

    UK return for an Afirrcan Overland truck

    Kenyan car prices are high, you might get more for them here, than they would be worth in the UK?

    Sometimes in life, things don’t happen quite how you want them to. It is how people respond when this happens, that counts and from the PDF Jake attaches, he seems to be polite, and offers as much information as he can (in the snippet), offering you a FOC mount if you pass by and a refund as...
