If anyone has a series 3 diesel with a 200 di or 200 tdi engine, could they just put there opinions below as i am thinking of putting a 200 di into my series 3, to replace the 2.25 diesel thats in it. I have been told its much easier to fit the 200 engine without the turbo and its more...

Why are Sankey trailers so much and how come they have brakes ? How do the brakes connect to the towing vehicles brakes ? I have a series 3 and fancy a trailer is this a good option ?

We Sold the Landrover to a nice couple from Oban and they collected it yesterday. I Sold her (her ! where did that come from) so as to buy a much newer Defender anyway in the time it took to sell her the defender was sold so now I dont have a Landy (should I be writing on the landyzone ?) and...

IT OWES ME JUST UNDER £1800 as its had new shocks and the steering fixed since. if anyone is interested in buying it from me i would need £2k +. Its got overdrive and freewheeling hubs, parabolic springs and brand new tyres and wheels. Negative points on it are its a little slow for me and there...

I thought they had scrapped q plates ? Years ago i knew a mechanic that bought a q plate xr2, then he stole 5 other xr2 fiestas and took the plates and numbers off them and the just put the q plate off the car he had bought legitimately. He then sold six xr2's on the same number plate. Crazy i...

The date of registration relates to the chassis number although you can replace the chassis ans keep the registration along with the date old reg as long as the chassis number from the original chassis is not used again. (this would be cloning a vehicle) Changing anything but the chassis will...

and it still leans slightly on the drivers side. (the drivers side shocks front and back were both knackered.

Just to let you all know I love my new vehicle. I just put new shocks on it and got rid of all the play from the steering (all by myself). I feel like a mechanic ! Our Landrover - a set on Flickr I have taken some pics of her and put them on flickr. I love the shape of the 88" pickup

Thanks Guys. I managed to turn it in the end (I was turning wrong way lol)

I just wanted to say point out that recently I had to deal with the Huddersfield Landrover Centre and ended up leaving due to the fact they were more than 30% more expensive than the much friendlier and very helpful Buckley Brothers over in Darwen. I will not use the Landrover centre...

It would get £1000 to £1500 on ebay. They are all worth £500 on ebay and with an Mot usually a grand +. With the bits you mentioned moe. I have been watching them for six months and bought my first a week ago. Depending how much off road damage and with that engine it could be worth more but I...

If you can prove the vehicle was manufactured prior to 1st January 1973 it can be Tax Exempt

Cheers

Does anyone know the correct tyre pressure's for Insa Turbo Rangers when fitted to a series 3 88 pickup ?

I am going to top my oil up and possibly do a oil change on the landy. Whats the correct oil to use ? Someone told me 10/40 is fine and I have 5 litres already but I thought I best check.

My Landrover series 3 pickup has locking hubs. On the drivers side I can twist it easy but the left is locked with paint I think. Anyway I did not know they were on the car until an hour ago. Anyway I have been using it in low and high ratio 4wd as well as 2wd and its been fine. Can alnyone...

After a couple of years selling MG Midgets during the summer and struggling with a Volvo in the winter, I decided to buy my Land Rover. Its a 1978 Series 3 Pick up Diesel and I bought it three days ago, just before the snow. I was surprised how good it is and how much fun I would have in it...

easy. All I can think of now is a speech by J F Kennedy where he says we do these things because they are hard. "Ark" made my trip and my self feel incredible. I drove round the streets of Marsden and even up the Snow Laden A62 that is closed due to Snow. Cars stuck in the Snow were everywhere...

I have used her in the Snow this morning. Shes Brilliant in it. Our house is at the top of a 100m steepish slope with some nice bends to put the fear into you. It was covered in Snow and the Farmer next door left his Pathfinder at the bottom as if to say 4x4's should not try this. I walked some...
