Is there any age you shouldn't use SVO in? I used SVO in my 406 when it was about £1 a liter, then SVO went up to a bit more than 115p when diesel went up so there was no point. The seals in older fuel pumps weren't up to veg oil, or so they said, but the 406 was supposed to be OK. With...

The boat is a Copland Harrier 20'er. I was OK towing my First 18 with the 406, all the trauma came from the trailer wheel bearings. When I took the Harrier to Largs last year the 406 coped but I suspect it was above it's 1500Kg tow weight, pulling up sharp could have been a problem but...

I got a Disco 300 TDi ,'coz it was all I could afford, to tow my little (1.5Te) ship. I was a bit doubtfull as I seemed to be using the box more than I had to with the 406 estate and that was without the boat on, the Disco seemed a bit under powered. The 406 was the 110HDi turbo deisel and...

I dropped a bag of spanners in my garage on Saturday and next door but ones house alarm went off, funny it should go off just then I thought. I did a bit of rubbernecking and all the neighbourhood watch were out looking at next door but one so I went back to my tinkering. The bloody alarm was...

This sounds like fun, I'll keep me eyes open and join in one of these days out soon hopefully. Sorry to miss the Holmfirth trip, where did you go? I took my Pug 406 round Yeatholm res and up the track to the road up to the top. It made it and the exhaust didn't drop off for a couple of weeks...

Heyup, I'm picking up my brand, spanking, new (to me :D) Disco 300 Tdi tonight. It's an S reg Safari model but don't ask me how that makes it different from Adam 'coz I don't know. I'm in Mirfield, West Yorkshire, and have had some dealings with the Yorkshire Rover Owners Club (and a couple of...
