I though all suspension was by definition self-levelling ;)

Just to throw another figure into the mix - my 300Tdi 110's been averaging ~26mpg on the trip to and from work each day, and not driving particularly efficiently either ;-) (South-London traffic + sometimes the wrong side of 70) and there's a bit of a weight in the back with tools and jacks, not...

That's a pretty damn good price for that bit of kit!

Mind me asking how much it set you back? I've got a hefty winch on my SIII which I'd like to move across to the 110 but want it to be "discreet" so to speak and the standard bumpers which'll take it stick out like a sore thumb. Also the lights would be a really useful edition for rabbiting...

Out of curiosity - you're going to be getting a lot of questions like this me thinks - where'd you get that winch bumper (the front one)? I'd have been interested but now I've got the 110 I'm pleased as a lab in water with something dead in it's mouth. Between the shooting / climbing /...

He's probably basing it on the price alone. What he doesn't realise is that they'll almost certainly work out cheaper in the long run. Had the ATs on the Shogun, 90 and now 110 since we had the vehicles and the ATs are averaging 65k+ each. I doubt a remould would work out cheaper than that.

I know that feeling - the speedo on my Series III oscillates anywhere between 30 and 55 when up to speed...

Cheers for that - a bit closer to work than the others so dropped them an email (I want to see if they can fit a wheel carrier too as unfortunately I don't have all my tools here in London to do it, nor the time)...

I know, I know - do it yourself but a) I don't have the time b) the 110's been well looked after and I intend to keep it that way... c) I don't have the time :rolleyes: Anybody have any recommendations on where to go for a routine service? I'm based in Chelsea but travel in and out of London...

My 300Tdi 110 sat at 80mph all the way down from North Wales (M54/M6/M1) back to London with 5 people and lots of climbing equipment / rucksacks in the back. Tend to sit at 65/70 as it's a little kinder on the engine and my wallet. Has seen just the other side 90 once or twice. Running on a...

Works fine in a 110 or larger - doesn't quite fit in an 88 ;). Fits reasonably nicely into the back of the new 110 but was a little awkward in the Series.

Would go for a HighLift, but based on my experience go for the 4ft not 5ft version - I haven't had a need for the 5ft and being so tall makes it difficult to put anywhere useful.

Almost there, 72000 but that's 3500 in the last month

Sorry, I made a slight mistake we have 265x75R16 on our Landy and apart from the bump-stop adjustment there's no problem.

I've never had any experience with Cooper tyres but bear in mind that the BFGs have a very hard-wearing rubber on them and thus in the long run are going to be cheap. As a simple example of this - the last set of BFGs we had did ~70,000 miles and at the time were ~£100 a tyre. A small car we...

Well it's now being contemplated more seriously but I'm thinking of a trip somewhere around either Africa or Europe in the 110 once I graduate... Need a proper break / adventure!

Ah too late - I'll be there the start of July, without a Landy unfortunately.

Just re-read your original message - when you off around Portugal?

Depends on what you define as standard. The bottom end Defenders had the thinner wheels but I think on stuff like the XS models then they'd fit wider rims (basically the alloys were bigger). Best bet is to go and ask a local garage / tyre fitting place. I know when I was looking for a set of...

On the 90: 285x85R16 I don't have any photos of those tyres on the 110 sorry (we moved them across when we got the 110).
