    Morocco March 2016

    Well I think I got a bit mixed up - I swapped my gearbox/transfer box for one in a red 110 I got last year - unknown to me the transfer box that was in the red one had a 1.2 ratio gearing. A few long drives along country lanes and was always changing gear and up inclines a rev up in first and...

    local paint shop will not paint my defender door

    I know about 2 pack - is that what he will use on cars but not suitable for a 110 - so what is used so I know what to ask and could he not have got some!!.

    local paint shop will not paint my defender door

    I took my 1996 Defender to a modest sized paint shop that repairs cars and sprays them. They would not touch my 110 as they said the kind of paint they use for normal cars - pointing to a few half done in the garage - is not the same as needed on the 110 - and if they used that kind of paint it...

    Eberspacher Airtronic D2

    Thanks for replies - had thought of putting it underneath in a box but was unsure how big the box would have to be to prevent overheating - don't think there is room behind the front seats because of the bulkhead!!.

    Mine is a Garman 60CSX - but as Mike says it is too small. Next time I will get a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 inch and set it up on the dash. Basecamp is a replacement for my Mapsource where you can download tracks from a German chap ( forget the name just now). With the Tab 3 will be able to load...

    Eberspacher Airtronic D2

    I have the D2 but struggling where to fit it on a 110 hard top - need it to blow hot air into the back where I spend the evening when its cold when on a long trip. Did want to fit it into the engine bay but not really room. Could fit it underneath but it will be open to the weather. The best...

    Flippin ek why has it been made more complicated - and why have we been relegated below car sales - and where has my 110 gone playing in the sand and instead been replaced with a question mark.
