You're absolutely right Sir! that one was LH drive (English reg), the MOT testers were gawking at it, they'd never seen one either!! apparently its based on the 2CV

With flying colours!

With the recent spate of good weather, there's only one way to go through the MOT in a 3dr................Hardtop off! eat your heart out 5dr's and FL2's :p Check out the Citroen Mehari, didn't even have the ragtop down!!

In NI it will fail the MOT in 2wd, as the vehicle is not presented as it was designed. Test centres are heavily regulated by DVTA Roller brake test uses counter rotating drums to get round the 4x4 transmission, state of the art facilities!

Its a joke, its not about the environment, its purely TAX. If its based on emissions, how come commercial freelanders are paying less under light goods rate as opposed to private light goods freelanders Years back my research was in carbon neutral projects, now I say.......... pump as...

In your other post, you said you hear a click? There is a 440 millisecond delay before the door solenoid is actuated, this time delay is controlled by the CCU. You can do a self diagnostic thanks to our Hippo...

Sounds like the solenoid is not releasing, go with NeilC option above, or empty a can of proper penetrating fluid around the solenoid, assuming you still have the rear handle off

Looks like the pre 2000 black 5dr V6 is the one to go for!!

You call your motor Gladys and then challenge other people's mental health!! ;) Cars are built by economists these days, not engineers, the FL1 only had an eight year business plan

NS Sherlock!

I'm all for Health & Safety first, but sometimes you gotta think outside the box. It's not the tensioning with straps, it's the releasing of the rachet which is the dangerous part How to compress a coil spring with ratchet straps - YouTube

Thanks troopers, Had a brief look at the main points, all looks good. no corrosion or jammed parts After idling the engine for 20min, then drove back and forward a few times on the drive, on final run I powered up in 1st gear, then slammed on the brakes............... the ABS light went...

Alrite Gaz! FL1 carpets are pretty tough and fully synthetic, not sure if the dye will bond chemically? Your carpets will take a good power hosing, strong water tight backing, very durable woven, worth a try, best removed first before a power hose! ;)

Hello Troopers Trying to sort a ABS problem on a 2006 TD5 110 which has sat for a couple of years SORN'd, the ABS stays on constantly, IIRC vehicle did not have this problem before it was SORN'd. The battery had lost all charge, alarm/immobiliser all working fine. I have no...

143 teeth manual tensioner with 23mm bolt (except VVC engines which have 26mm bolt) 145 teeth automatic tensioner with 26mm bolt. Not sure you are right about the sprockets and pulley, last I counted there are 48 teeth on K16 cam sprockets (LHB 101360)..............away to check parts bin!

Useful tips, have you tried vacuum pumps? I was even thinking of drilling holes in the outermost edges, then add a suitable solvent and centrifuge the remaining fluid/diluent out the holes! VCU could even be left in situ, take it for a test drive (or place on stands) and let the...
