Ok, it may not count as "long" to those of you who drive your landys to Africa and back... but it's long to me! Got me G reg 110 last October, as a work vehicle (self employed). Since then I have done roughly 8000 miles driving for work, so never more than 30-40 miles from home. Next week I...

I broke rule number one of defender ownership... and left my toolkit behind! Been working for a tree surgeon today and tomorrow, thought I won't need my chainsaws and toolbox tonight so left them in his lockup. Halfway home, my indicators stopped working! Pretty well every screwdriver, knife...

I had no idea, was well chuffed with a fiver more than expected to come back with! Thought it was worth sharing in case other people didn't know...

Don't know if this is old news, but thought I'd share it to help some of you save a few quid... Since I got my 110 pickup I have driven down to Bristol and back in it once, which involved going across the (old) Severn Bridge. I paid roughly £11 for the toll, which I was expecting to as a...

forest lubricants sell chainsaw oil as well, I get mine from there in 25 litre drums. I wouldn't buy their 2 stroke though, I've heard of a few people having problems with it.

I'm in the forest of dean, but come over towards chelt, stroud and tewkesbury every now and again - I'm self employed so do a bit of travelling! I buy my oils from Forest Lubricants, they don't seem to have a price list on their website and I can't remember offhand how much it is. But if you...

I work nearly every day using chainsaws, strimmers and other 2 stroke machinery. So I have an old metal toolbox that lives on the back of the pickup, containing a good assortment of spanners, pliers, screwdrivers, cable ties, duct tape and other bits that hopefully enable me to at least bodge a...

Yep, my 1990 110 pickup is my everyday vehicle. I'm self employed, so most of its use is for work in the woods but it also get used for what little recreational time I have!

just read the ad again methinks it might be a student hoping for a bit more beer money!

I got my 110 pickup for just shy of 2k in october, it's a G reg with a 200tdi in it. So far it's been ok, no major problems just character flaws! They are around, just keep an eye out on ebay

personally I would have thought it a tad expensive for a 21 year old landy, but I don't really know for sure!

cheers for the replies, I don't think it's the power steering as that is always noisy! It's more of a metallic noise, I shall try to check the wheel bearing tomorrow! thanks again, Joe

Hi chaps, Over the weekend, my G reg 110 pickup has started squeaking when turning right. It doesn't do it all the time, sometimes it's just a "ting" noise sometimes a proper squeak. Noise seems to be coming from the drivers side wheel - is this something to panic over, or just something to...

LANDROVER 110 HARD TOP on eBay (end time 09-Jan-11 10:35:45 GMT) this of any interest? dunno how far you are from hampshire...

coolio! cheers, been looking for one of they can't help with a hard top, but good luck in the search

I'll chuck in an offer to buy the ifor canopy off you, assuming it's for a single cab 110 pickup? not hicap? got friends in glossop so no probs picking it up!

luckily mine is parked right outside bedroom window, and starting from cold isn't its strong point at the moment. So if I hear me starter motor clicking away and loud swearing in the middle of the night, I have time to lesuirley get dressed, make a cup of tea and then walk outside and...

cheers for the offers but it's a single cab, so longer canopy than a double cab/90 pickup!

Hi all, I'd like to get an ifor canopy for my 110 pickup (not hicap), is the hi capacity version the same in terms of dimensions etc? Will a hicap canopy fit on mine? don't spose anyone has one for sale by the way... cheers, Joe

mine is doing the same with the gears, I assumed it was because the gearbox oil was thicker due to the cold, and once it warmed up after 10 minutes or so it got thinner, making gear changes easier? But I don't really know for sure was just what I guessed... my clutch seems fine, touch wood...
