    TD5 Down on Power After Head Gasket Repair

    I had an issue with mine, injector seals were leaking, had diesel in the sump. And even though it was making the right noises at the lift pump, my tank fuel pump wasn't working correctly

    Can I change my 04 defender tax class?

    Well I nearly bought a ps10 stationwagon but my insurance insisted it was a van, even though DVLA said it wasn't. And even though as a Car my quotes were 250 odd, cheapest quote on ps10 was well over 400 "because it's a van" Regardless of what the dvla say, insurance will treat it as whatever...

    Three front seats in a 110 with belts..how?

    Yeah, problem is there's no way of fitting a roll bar and keeping the hard top, unless I can somehow customise a roll bar to fit under the top

    Three front seats in a 110 with belts..how?

    Skinny teenager, I won't travel with anyone in the back as my vehicle is dvlc registered as three seats,and the bench seats are dangerous, plus take up valuable room, yes is tall enough, no booster or child seats needed just the only way to get three of us safely to an event (when they start...

    Three front seats in a 110 with belts..how?

    Three front seats in a 110 with belts..how?

    Yeah, am trying to avoid just a lap belt, cos if anything nasty happens someone will get a gear lever rhinoplasty and whilst thats worse than the type approved exmoor trim 3 point harness, i don't think broken collar bones are desirable either. It's a tough one as i'm sure late models must have...

    Am trying to fit 3 front seats in my ex military 110, i bought the exmoor pattern belt for the centre seat, but thats tight to the shoulder, surely someone has fitted front seats? Or is 1985 pre type approval and I can use minibus seats with built in three point belts? (Obviously modified legs...

    Giving us a bad name?

    Well the plot thickened, last week it wasn't parked outside in it's usual spot, i vaguely wondered why and the alarm went off. In the next couple of days it was in all sorts of places in the road, alarm going off randomly in the middle of the night. Obviously not waking the owner. Got so bad I...

    Giving us a bad name?

    The driver of this vehicle collects tickets, then throws them on the ground and drives off. This has been going on since well before covid, is got to the point where the wardens continually now patrol the road, my wife got a ticket for being half hour past the time on her blue badge, shame as...
