Well done Joe, good news indeed.

Got it, many thanks indeed. Thanks Jordan, still waiting for the 4x4 team to respond but not to worry as I think my wife has sorted it out last night via our current insurer.

I'm after a Tow bar with single point electrics please guys, if you have one in a nice condition. For: L322 4.4 V8 Petrol 2006 Facelift All the best, Andrew

This is the exact same point we keep telling people in our UK modified car clubs. We get a whole load of people (mainly young guys) swearing they can afford the basic car/bits/project only to get a big shock when their initial budget then covers only 50% of the job. The car then falls into...

Thanks guys. I found a good link through a company called 4 Muddy Feet in Morprth which had a links-page attached. The company is closing down in a few days which is sad indeed. Thanks for all of your comments and help - you're a great bunch:) EDIT: And...... you've just pushed my...

I've done a shed-load of research in the last few weeks in to prices of 90s but I've not seen any stonking bargains that have stopped me in my tracks. The 3.5 to 4.5 figure will get you something with the goodies you desire (and most that you need too) but it's the condition of said vehicle...

Hi Jordan, I may have just sent you a PM but can’t be certain. It sounds crazy I know but I’m still learning the PM system.:D Regards, Andrew

It sounds as if we've gone through the same phase in all honesty Ginge. I just like making things look new again, and where they were broken; fix em'.;)

It sounds like you've done well for yourself.:)

I did that once and was very selective with the parts. I would choose the right bits as and when they appeared on the market, via the various forums/eBay, and then add them to the car when ready. I completed the build on a very tight budget indeed but it also took me a long time; and I mean a...

If anyone knows of any offroad sites within 30 to 40 miles of Durham then PM me please guys.

I'm keeping this once clean looking. Perhaps a cheeky RPG or LAW or something (i.e. when I have more money to spend on mods):D

It seems quite decent for a SE London Post Code.

I've got to admit that on my other forum the build section is the most popular bit as it contains vast amounts of learning material.

Thanks good mate. I'll start scanning the links:)

Crickey, I hope we have something up in the Durham way. Have Land Rover and no where to play:D

Pals in Devon, Northumberland/Newcastle, Scotland and South Coast have all had the same problem. We still have horse and carts in our village hence the reason why there are no garage mechanics:D

The really strange thing, Ginge, is that I am quite the opposite good sir. I hate speeding about. I drive at 60 on the motorway in the car and sometimes I may even push it to 70 when I'm on the Honda Pan. I like the technical, logical, looks, and performance capabilities of cars and bikes...

That scenario is the same for the UK in part. I have friends who have great car businesses, each with a tip-top customer base, only for them to have severe problems in finding good mechanics. The previous government has spent so much effort in sending people to higher education that our...

All this 240 and 510 BHP talk is crazy compared to my usual Jap-car bubble as my lot don't even start to get excited until you reach the 900 to 1000BHP-figures. That said, it sounds to me as if 240 Horses (and heaps of torque) will do the job of scaring people quite nicely in a Landy. Keep...
