    Disco 1 Single brake

    It's just a bad idea for sooooo many reasons, unbalanced braking, halfshafts/drive members/diff become part of the brake system,distance between what you want to stop(wheels) and what you are stopping it with may exaggerate forces etc etc

    Disco 1 200TDI On-board air using a D2 compressor

    I think mr noisey or dr evil used one, packed it with grease and sealed it up to bypass this problem

    Nah! You undo the nuts and remove the car thus leaving the wheel at a convenient height to work on it ;)

    Insurance for 18yo girl

    Cost £30 to add me to my eldest lads insurance (1.6 focus) bringing it to just over £300 but to add him to my normal car which is a lower insurance group than his (not the 90) took my insurance to over £500 o_O

    Insurance for 18yo girl

    Welcome and good luck. Just wanted to say I got muuuuuuuuuuuch cheaper quotes to add my son to my 90 as a named driver than to a "normal" small car, not sure what a stand alone quote would be like though. What is your Landy classed as on the logbook?

    Disco 2 Hi-lift jacks

    I don't really think of my High Lift as a jack, more a mulitool that can jack and that is very good at damaging things especially people if you use it carelessly. "LIFT MATE" google image

    The wheel hooks are good (easy lift? ) but if you are changing the wheel you'll still need a axle stand. But the standard Disco1 bottle Jack with cradle built in is still easier/quicker/safer.

    defender 130 resto chassis

    Really wouldn't bother getting it powder coated especially on a chassis, with powder coating the slightest scratch and water gets in, rusts forms, water spreads between coating and steel and it tends to peel of in large pieces and it's pretty much impossible to touch it up.

    Ha ha! That parcel is brilliant! Often think my neighbours are going to do themselves an injury with all the rubber necking when one of my frequent odd shaped parcels arrive.

    The 110.

    You can get a complete set of the side/stop/indicators including bulb holders (ie 8 little round ones)for about £20 on eBay, yeah they're britpart but they can't get plastic lenses too wrong..............can they?
  18. J

    So now I have the whole set

    Looks like you need a bigger parking bay :eek: and that you've reversed into someone's caravan ;) Are you having it on permanently or taking it off from time to time? Are you leaving it white?

    Can you not plumb some air jets in to keep the sand away from the viewing holes? (Air wash style)
