I've had the same issues with mine since rescuing you on the plains. I know for sure my ECU under the seat didn't get wet as hardly any water came in. Will be getting the engine bay steam cleaned when I find some where local.

This hits a bit of a nerve for me as I have been hit by IEDs and have lost a couple of good mates to them, while they continue to take lives through out the world. I fully understand that you have thrown your teddy in the corner because you weren't invited to come out and play with us and...

Route to meeting point sorted, leaving time sorted with breakfast on the way. Looking forward to it, see you in the morning! :)

Please bear in mind that I know nothing but isnt that a Tombraider? Won't LR know what make and model it is?? I dare say there will be a TR forum or a TR owner on here who will know the details! Thor

Epic journey!! I agree with Station House, but hide the keys in the house as well. My van was stolen and that was fitted with Cat1 alarm/imobiliser and disc lock, they broke in and stole the keys. They also stole the keys to my work Golf GTi that was blocking my van in and took that!! All...

I have a 52 plate TD5 decent service history and 62k on clock with loads of extras for around your budget. (Air con, overdrive, up graded intercooler and ecu, brakes and suspension + more). Mine can sit for a month or 2 sometimes with out moving and always starts first time and runs well...

Jerry - I know what your saying but the serious lack of valentines gift meant I have a period of doing as I'm told + she needed it to cover some one else at work which meant extra pennies!! Doodle bug - as well as the standard fit alarm I have road cat 1 installed. It works separately from...

Cheers Taz, yeah doing as per normal and switching ignition on straight away. Got towed home in the end and my mechanic mate is speaking to his alarm man....hopefully getting the alarm and imobiliser ripped out on the weekend! Thor

Mrs had the defender for the day and now it won't start! I can unlock it with the fob (52 plate TD5 so has the rover alarm/immobiliser) but get in, insert the key dash lights light up, fuel pump kicks in etc but I get a flashing red engine management light with a lightning bolt through it and...

My 110 TD5 is averaging 28.6 mpg with full length Hannibal rack. That's using the over drive when ever possible and excluding green lane days. As for the differences people have theyre preference but will most likely point you to the search function. Day to day added with some Byway driving...

****now sold****

Ratty, Appologies if you were interested but they have now been sold. Thor

Defiantly!!! After a day on the ranges gas parts out and straight into the 'army issued' Rola Cola that you got with your haverbag (lunch bag) and it would strip the carbon on while you cleaned the rest of the weapon and job done!!

Jim, Cheers, as it's Rattys thread I'll wait till Tusday evening to see if he wants them. I've also had a PM from someone else before yours saying the same thing as you sorry mate, I'll let you know by PM either way Wednesday mate. Cheers, Thor.

I have a pair of Thule roof bars for a defender sat in the garage doing nothing and they're advertised in the for sale section. Was meant to get photos yesterday but opertunity for work came up yesterday. Can sort pics out when I get home tonight. But they're black, straight and easy to...

As above I have sitting in my garage a pair of Thule roof bars for a defender that I no longer need. I've had them for about 6 months and were told they were about a year old when I bought them. I'm away with work for the week so won't be able to get a pic until the weekend sorry. They're...

Happy New Year all!! I spent the morning giving the Defender and my mountain bike a good clean. Realised that mine had loads more mud up the sides compared to all the others due the wheel spacers on mine...Might have to look at moving or extending my mud flaps. Bobbyell, I'm up for a Nav...

Cheers for today guys, thoroughly enjoyed it. Must say a public well done to Sam (Mrs Thor) for her driving, as only her second proper days laning and she went through the "pudle" first........If she had known how deep it was there is NO WAY she would have attempted it on her own!! Have a...

Cheers range, See you all at 09:00!!!
