    What engine is in the 2006 td5

    In fairness to this gezza he wasnt asking what engine was in the landy he was asking who made the engine. Then he gets jumped on. Nice:rolleyes:

    What do you use your defender for ?

    I use mine to bully other road users, particularly cyclists.

    Middle Seat Legality

    As long as it has a seat belt and is secured correctly then perfectly legal. You can fit an adult in that seat but its a bit intimate when you're trying to change gear or get at the hand brake.

    Head Lights

    Yep, they look ok but I have found a problem with the leds popping and being a pig of a job to fix or replace.

    Merthry Tydfil To Gloucestershire

    No problems buddy. Slightly annoyed that blue beasty's 40 year old landy leaks less oil on my drive than mine does but there we go.

    bloody rain!

    So its hammering down and my indicators have decided to stop working. The hazards flash once but then decide thats enough. Any one got any tips on how to stop water getting into the bloody fuse box???

    Is my Landy a black edition?

    I was wondering, because ford made a special edition vehicle called a black, which had full leather trim as standard, could have been on the KA but cant remember exactly. I thought perhaps, if Land Rover made a 'black edition' also, then perhaps that may have come with a leather interior as...

    Is my Landy a black edition?

    If they were fitted as standard that must be some sort of special edition. I dont know if full leather is an option on a standard defender but I would imagine not. Nice looking defender. Fair play to you.

    Is my Landy a black edition?

    No idea if its the black edition as never heard of it but are they leather seats in the photo? Thats pretty special. Ive never seen leather seats in a defender before. Nice.

    Speedo / Tacho Accuracy

    Perhaps you have miscalculated? Or your odometer is on the way out? Or the previous owner has been fiddling with the speedo?

    Stahlwille sockets

    How much for the ones highlighted in red with postage?:)

    Could someone tell me what these are called please?

    would it not be easier to use roofing bolts?

    Aaron's 90 rebuild

    Looking very good indeed. Are you going to fit the rope tie downs to the tub? If you are how many rivets are you going to put per tie down?

    Nothing

    It rained really hard yesterday and I had at least 4 leaks as I was driving into it Both doors and coming through heater vents. Its all part of owning a defender:)

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Converted from hardtop to truck cab and my old man built me a bespoke swing away wheel carrier, which was rather good of him:D
  17. dodgyrob

    Nice little patch up;)

    Cheaper to use gungum and a beer can. Sacrilege to use rothenberger soldering mat! Surely you could have used monument! Even so, I like your style.

    Gearbox oil

    Did you only check the oil level in the front diff or did you check the gearbox and transfer box aswell?

    Truck cab

    I need a truck cab roof and body to fit a defender 90 a.s.a.p and the drop down thing where the rear door should be (but thats not essential) Anyone got one knocking about they want shot of?:)
