:lol::lol::lol: I bought a manual from Halfords for my 200tdi 110 a few months ago, and not only is it paperback which I think is just a bit naff, it was certainly no cheaper than any hardback manual I've bought in the past. What I really find annoying though is that it's not exactly specific...

Glad you boys are saying that cos' when I got the 110, I was in two minds about getting a 90 instead. There are many a time when I'm doing a 200-point-turn in a car park, or when I drive to work and look behind me to see about 120 cubic feet of space with no passengers, and I do wonder if a 90...

Doesn't bother me in the slightest. lol Simple human nature. Personally I'm not one to belittle somebody because they don't know something, but I'm also not taking the moral high ground attitude that we should all show each other 'respect'. We're all big boys. In fairness, before posting I...

Cheers mad hat man. I must admit, I had no idea that this whole issue is called phasing, and having read what you posted it is a whole lot clearer. It's a 110, I'm working on, and my front prop is indeed out of phase. The rear prop I removed is one spline out of phase, and I initially fitted...

Hi all, I'm replacing the rear prop on my 200tdi 110, and have watched this vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWGM7fnMV9g At 4minutes 30secoonds in, it states that on Land Rovers Rear Props, the yokes on either end should line up. HOWEVER I've just been and looked at the prop I took off...

I'm in Hereford, so a 50 or 60 mile radius is reasonable. I just looked at that one on here for 50 quid, but it's in Lockerbie, so far too far for me :( I think my roof is the flat type, (92 2000tdi csw). I only would need to carry stuff up there once a month, for camping trips etc. and I'd...

Thanks for your comments. No heater in the landy, but it wasnt too bad. I had a winter sleeping bag, and a blanket over me and I was just on the cold side of comfortable.

Hi all, I've been watching ebay for a few months now for a bargain 110 roof rack to come up close by. Nothing yet, so I've been doing some thinking: The two major drawbacks of a normal type roof rack are the cost considering they're rarely used, and the height, which makes access difficult to...

Early last week (before my defender decided to shed its rear prop earlier this week lol), I went up to North Wales for a few days. Everyone loves pics of landys so here's some of mine. Sadly no off roading, just some nice views. Pics taken with GoPro hero 3+ silver.

Well then the plot thickens... When I picked the landy up 1000 miles ago from the garage, the mechanic who is a friend of my fathers told me that the diff lock switch was playing up and permanently staying on. I asked him how I check to make sure it's not stuck locked as I don't want to trash...

Well I managed to get her home with the use of a ratchet strap between the chassis rails and resting the loose prop on top. Seemed to drive fine, no dodgy noises or anything but I wouldn't want to drive more than a couple of miles like it. If I finish work early tonight I'll definitely have a...

After posting my message I figured I'd take a better look underneath and hey presto: How I missed that the first time I do not know!! Is there any way I can drive it with it in this state? I'm guessing there's nothing I can do unless I unbolt the rear prop from the centre diff? I...

Well after buying the defender 2000 miles ago and having the clutch replaced 1000 miles ago, I was on my way into work this morning and something happening from underneath such that the vehicle now Judders, and doesnt drive smoothly, and from underneath is a cacophony of metal on metal, metal...

Hi all, I know good campsites are often closely guarded secrets (like good wild camping spots, and greenlanes). However I'm off to North Wales in a few days, and my usual campsite (Shell Island), isn't open until mid March which leaves me high and dry. I normally stay in cheap B&Bs or...

Great post, and good luck. I too am intrigued by the drainpipe type attachment to your roof. My guess was that it was some kind of water capture system??

I saw what I thought was a new freelander in Tetbury during late summer last year. It was painted in that black and white camauflage and the had the word Discovery on the bonnet, so I knew it was some sort of prototype. My old man got sent a magazine from the LR Dealer a few weeks ago, and sure...

Haha, I couldn't bring the milk from home cos the glass bottle would have smashed while I was driving on the Greenlane. I worked on a dairy farm while studying Agriculture and we used to make tea with the milk running through the plate cooler on its way to the bulk tank. Don't get any fresher...

Thanks fellas, I wanted it to be as simple as possible, because like most of us I use my landy to get to work and back, take the dog out in, and generally normal stuff. On the occasions where I'm greenlaning or camping I want to be able to comfortably live and kip in the landy, but then when I'm...

Hi all, Some of you may know from my previous posts that I have built several storage systems/ sleeping platforms into discovery's I've owned. Now that I've got a defender I couldn't help myself fiddling with it so I've made a storage box with a fold down door/ table. The idea is that I...

Just to confuse matters; I started her up for work this morning with baited breath to listen to the noise, but lo and behold, it didn't happen. Then this evening when I finished work, I jumped in to drive her home, and again, it didn't happen. I'm still going to have a good nose around...
