I'm sorry but i's disagree with you on that one. There's some debate as to who makes them for halfords, most probably it's one of snap on's generic factories in the far east, the gear wrench and draper stuff is identical but with different branded packaging. It's well finished and the quality...

The reason for having the multi draw boxes is to keep expensive tools in order. so when you start a job you can put your hand on the right tool straight away, and when you finish you put everything back in it's place so you know if you've dropped something in the yard or in an engine bay if...

Sorry, i missed that you'd already answered. were you not slightly suspicious that the landrover was a 300tdi when on a K plate it should have been a 200? Anyway, perhaps if you posted a decent picture i could give you a better idea. but ballpark figure if it's reasonably tidy it should...

He's doing well at 11, fair play to him, when i was welding up series land rovers for 'fun' i was using a stick welder

how much did you pay for it? that's surely a more pertinent question when deciding what it's worth to you.

To be fair i hadn't noticed you were quoting another site, (the link to the thread doesn't work for me BTW), despite that you still need to be careful when posting stuff like that. Just because it's been published on another site doesn't mean it's ok to post it verbatim here, because you may be...

unless the original owner was unable to claim for some reason, say he left the keys in the ignition, then he or she will have been paid out by the insurance company, so the vehicle belongs to them now.

You can weld aluminium with a mig but it's not the ideal way of doing it, i think the guys who weld up alloy bodies for trucks use tig sets to get a cleaner weld, for odd jobs you can make a standard mig do the job, the correct kit would be a special torch with the wire reel on the handle, to...

Storm's absolutely correct. Saying you've had a problem and suggesting people contact trading standards if they've had a similar experience is one thing, making more general accusations about someone ripping people off and being a bit of a crook, (even if they are true), can count as...

Take the bull bar off, throw it away, then put some rubber grommets in the holes.

how long is a piece of string? It's impossible to say without seeing it, it could be a complete dog for all i know, extras don't always add money, if it looks like you covered it in glue and ram raided Halfords then it will make it worth less rather than more. that said, look on ebay, you...

It sounds like they might have used a hiab lorry to lift the land rover out of the tight space.

I keep hearing differing opinions on this one, could you expand on your point a bit Buzz?

Well that sounds like an admirable endeavour. Seriously though, try shopping around for the insurance, the NFU piled a fair bit on mine when i had to claim for my land rovers, but i managed to find a quote that was nearly £500 cheaper for all the vehicles

Not even the tyres it seems:

That's very interesting, i was thinking of getting a GPS tracker for my new land rover since both my old ones got stolen in one night, but the fact that there were loads of jammers for sale made me think it might not be worth it. This seems cheap enough, don't know if it's any good or not...

will the insurance not pay out enough to replace her Kevin?

not the sharpest tool in the box, is he? just sent him this reply, let's see what he has to say now. Thankyou for your reply, I'm interested in the land rover but i would like a bit more information, you say it's a 1976 model that has been modified, could you tell me which parts of the vehicle...
