    Prospective purchase, opinions please?

    Thanks chaps. I've currently got a 2002 Berlingo which is fine, albeit showing its age a little, but I still fancy a Land Rover. My likely top budget will be around the £6-7000 area (Mrs J the P's considerations permitting). A galvanised chassis is something I'd certainly prefer but I sometimes...

    Prospective purchase, opinions please?

    Thanks, I thought it looked quite expensive but I'm new to Land Rovers (in recent times, having worked on them for the MoD as an apprentice 30 years ago) and they do seem to hold their value very well.

    wax oil cavity hose

    If you buy Bilt Hamber's Dynax S50 in spray cans, it comes with a long thin hose with a turned brass nozzle with radial holes to help spread it everywhere. No need to thin it down to get it to spray properly, and unlike Waxoyl, it actually works too: Cavity Wax | Order Dynax S50 For High...

    Chassis advice :)

    As a former Opel Manta owner (they were mostly built from painted rust at the factory), I can wholeheartedly recommend the products sold by these folks: Corrosion Protection, Rust Removal, Car Wax and Car Polish from Bilt-Hamber UK If anyone mentions Waxoyl, the thousands of rust free 1960s...

    inner wing liners for 1996 defender tdi 90

    Thanks Dan. There seem to be a few older topics with people asking about wheel arch liners, so maybe this will be of use to someone in future. Lokari don't seem to have much of a presence in the UK, but their range is very comprehensive and if the liners I bought are anything to go by, top...

    Prospective new owner

    Hello Folks, I'm a plumber and I'm vaguely contemplating replacing my old (and much loved) 1.9D Citroen Berlingo van with a hard top long wheelbase Land Rover. I do only around 6000 miles a year, and the Berlingo isn't that economical, so I hope a Land Rover won't hit me too much harder in the...
