You know it ;)

That sickly sweetcorn smell... hard one to shift!

Don't take it personal Nathan, there are some seriously grumpy buggers on this forum :p Most have probably been grumping since they were taken from their mothers breast :D Welcome to the forum, hopefully you can find what you're looking for :)

The trailer light is supposed to flash once when doing indication (even if you don't have any tow bar or tow electrics) - it is part of the warning system for the lighting circuit, if you did have working tow electrics and a trailer connected (with working lights), the trailer indicator light...

Leave it as it is, it's a lovely example :)

Such cute spaniels!!! Raff is cute too :D Was the colour choice accidental? ;)

I have never seen mine that high, not after being stuck in slow stop-start traffic in hot sun for hours, not after long runs, nor after doing very slow and long serious hill-climbs. It usually gets up to around the halfway point at the most. Have you checked to see if your coolant is flowing...

Out of curiosity, which lanes did they take you on?

O'G clan ;)

Awww bless, from the marks it looks like it was really struggling to get free :(

Looks like a fun little 90 :) What is the service history like? And what is the mileage on it? I'm looking forward to hearing what the garage comes back to you with :) Has it got axle breathers and whatnot btw?

Oh no! What happened? Welcome to the forum btw :)

Me too, wouldn't live anywhere else! Well that isn't true, I am impartial to Scotland too, and Iceland.... Okay, anywhere with mountains and great scenery :D

céad míle fáilte ;) Regarding the crossmember, best asking here: Defender 90 / 110 / 130 - Land Rover Zone

I second this! That is the craziest piece of kit I've ever seen on the roof of a Defender :D Well except maybe this...

It's feasible that the gearing has been altered by one of the previous owners, certainly isn't unusual. The 200tdi was originally geared for agricultural use and that naturally doesn't suit everyone :) Regarding your tyres, unless you really have a need for big chunky tyres like that, sell them...

I think those filter socks are designed for areas that are very dry and dusty with lots of airborne dust particles that can cause chaos and mean you constantly need to change your filters (i'm talking Africa, Australian outback, Morocco etc etc..) If you're in the UK, we have pretty superb...

As Brown said, difference between 200tdi and TD5 is that the 200tdi reacts really well to mechanical tuning, whereas the TD5 benefits from ECU tuning. If you're struggling to get 55mph in 5th gear on the motorway or wherever though, something definitely isn't right. My 200tdi would happily...

Ah, well great choice, really looks great :)

Best security feature a Landy owner can have? A dog :D
