Someone wanted pictures? My D1 was up on a lift having the chassis welded by the garage who had welded it and the previous 110's many times. There were also a few holes in the floor just big enough to let sparks through. He said he was underneath and heard a crackling noise. by the time he got...

Not been here long and a bit nervous about having posted a few things I know little about, but here is my observation: I built a caravanette out of an old Commer van. They rust anyway, but condensation held in by the soundproofing was what eventually caused its demise. It rusted from he inside...

Please excuse a newbie here if this is stupid, but for working with boats I was always told by the very experienced boatman who used to drop our boat into the gut and retrieve it in autumn that what I wanted was not a winch but a capstan. So I have always been surprised that there seem to be...

Did this ever get anywhere? I'm looking at buying a D2 or early D3 to replace my Jeep (bought as emergency replacement 18 months ago for my D1 which caught fire while having chassis welded). I've been having to play with diagnostics for the '54 reg Jeep as none of the garages round here...

Thanks for all the help. I'm still reading through everything and thinking. I've found an old pic of the tow hitch I would like to fit. It has the pin as well as the ball and can be adjusted up and down, so it copes with our boat and odd fishing boats etc. It was fine on this 110 and the...

Thanks, yes I must have auto as I still have a wonky knee. I assume CDL is Centre Diff Lock. What I want is not to have a centre diff that is always locked in low range, which is the problem with the Jeep. I assume TC is traction control. Not sure whether this matters or not. I just want to...

History! I had a couple of 110's and then, when my clutch knee went, an auto Disco 1. The D1 had virtually no maintenance and ended up being like driving naked under Niagara Falls when it rained, but ran brilliantly until it caught fire while the chassis was being welded. To continue to be...

I'm actively looking for something to tow a 3-ton boat (I may post a bit of history under new members), and have been asking around for ages without being confident about any answers. Q1. Will both D2's and D3's operate in low range on mixture of tarmac and rough ground? I think I am asking...
