    109 inch front seats

    I'm not particularly tall, 5'10, but have defender seats installed and have absolutely no issues doing 5 or 6 hour journeys in the Series. Well, no issues with the seats, just the noise, speed and smell.

    All weather cover

    I had a cover made up by a local materials place, the sort that does the side curtains for HGVs etc. I think it's cost around £180, it's basically a rectangular piece of heavy duty plastic with eyelets around the edges, bungee and hooks built in. It's not the prettiest but will last way...

    Restored 1972 Series 2 Diesel not starting

    20 or 30 seconds of cranking without glow plugs isn't hard to believe, especially if its cold.

    For Sale Series: Winch bumper & Zeon 10S winch

    Kev, I'll have a think, not entirely sure. I'd rather shift the bumper first if I was going to split them but I'll get back to you.

    Broken Timing Belt

    Has the fuel pump been removed and had a chance to empty itself? Sometimes they have very stubborn air locks in the injector pump, fuel still gets through but not in enough quantity to allow it to fire.

    Location of Relay Box

    Anywhere that works, how often are you realistically going to be removing the battery? What's an extra couple of bolts to remove the relays too. I'd suggest getting some heatshrink over those crimp connectors though, and smear some grease around the terminals of the relays, etc. That way a bit...

    I've got a bikini hood fitted, sharks tooth directly onto the windscreen and no leaks. Also have canvas door cards, self tappers and counter sunk washers to hold them in place.

    Advice sought

    Any modern ATV will likely have front and rear diff locks, or limited slip diffs at least, CVT transmission and much lighter/more nimble. I love my series but in terms of capability the two vehicles would be miles apart. Not to mention if the worst did happen and you had a roll, most ATVs will...

    Series 3 Mobile phone holder suggestions

    I'm inclined to say that webpage is misleading and/or poorly worded. The MOT inspection manual would be my go-to (and is when I'm doing an MOT inspection). Regardless, I've got two mirrors.

    Series 3 Mobile phone holder suggestions

    Nope, one mirror in any position.

    Series 3 Mobile phone holder suggestions

    Depends what you class as missing... there hasn't been one there in my ownership, and only one mirror is needed in my case.

    Series 3 Mobile phone holder suggestions

    As above, RAM ball mount bolted to the top of the windscreen frame, with a RAM arm mount to grip the phone. Doesn't move at all, vibrates a bit at idle but once moving it's perfectly still. Easily viewable without being in the way of anything.
