Doesn't seem as though there are any rules regarding tax exemption only MOT exemption, Does seem rather odd though that it has changed as you could effectively have a tax exempt brand new vehicle based solely on a VIN number by that standard.

Points based system including chassis, engine, transmission, axles and suspension. I'm sure someone will be along in a minute with a link to the gov website.

Oh yes, the other pipes will fit the radiator but not the oil filter housing, it's mental, typical Land Rover though lol

I know your pain :oops: Love hate relationship with mine after injector spill pipe decided to rupture in the middle of the New Forest on Tuesday :rolleyes: and now the issue with the oil cooler pipe unions for the new radiator I bought :confused:

Yes, it's called a train :eek::oops: I bought me a nice shiny new radiator, aluminium one, it pretty :) OK, got that out the way, now it's the crappy bit, turns out the oil cooler pipes are different and changed half way through 200Tdi production (I knew this, but forgot), so I have old cooler...

Luckily I spotted the needle in time before it got to that but it's scary stuff as a battery can turn into a bomb!!!

Sporadic visits, never been so busy.

You got a "what have I done now" thread on yo Def? I must admit it's all a bit trying and testing at times and especially now when I just want a reliable car to ferry me around the country. Oeph, that sounds like not a lot of fun at all mate, I'm shunting up and down the country at the...

Hello Paul. Buy a Freelander 1 and fit a decent set of all terrain tyres on it, job done. Oh and find some mates to joy ride with, nothing worse than getting stuck on your own in the middle of nowhere.

Are MacDonalds 4x4 still going?
