Week one of ownership, (last week), saw me take a big gamble as I agreed to purchase a 'wreck' of a P38 for a very reasonable price, (just before Christmas). As I had just started my festive leave break I decided to strip the interior and repair a puncture hole in passenger side footwell...

I am sure that the additional levels of technology/sophistication have a combined 'knock on' effect upon the 'reliability' issues, (on all modern vehicles), and this, in turn, adds additional importance of regular scheduled maintenance! There is a plus side, however, as there are many...

Hi Mick, I may have purchased your 'green disaster'! My first venture into RR 'perseverance/loyalty testing' is via a very cheap green 'wreck' of a P38 - but I knew what I was 'investing' into and, (in all honesty), the primary objective is to gain some experience of the usual 'issues' before...

It is actually slightly better than originally expected and it's 'value' will rise, considerably, should it drive reasonably well - once I have put I back together. Despite having a shortage of 'free' time I do keep taking on these 'winter projcts'!

Steve, I did give it a quick try, just before Christmas, but it didn't ask me for a code. There was a reasonably loud buzzing, (emanating from the door speakers), but it would not respond to any key presses so I couldn't even try the code that I found behind the dash. Shortly afterwards it...

Good to see that forum members don't mind getting a little more technical! RS is a good source for replacement semiconductor components but they may not always be able to provide a direct replacement but you can then source a similar device with higher spacifications - as I believe you have...

Steve, May or may not be of any assistance to you but I stripped out the entire interior of my P38, last week, and I noted that there is a blade fuse in the side of the CD Auto Changer Assembly that is located in the boot. I suspect that I will be having a trip down to a local LR dealer in...

Must be the time of year as my rear screen shattered, (all by its self), last week whilst I was working in my workshop! She is parked at the rear of the house as I have stripped out all of the interior and I am currently undertaking a deep clean and repairing a puncture hole in the passenger...

Just removed my HIVAC assembly, (more by accident than intention), as I am stripping my interior but it is simple to get to so 'get it out' and take a look! As Ovalandrover said - it could be a dodgy connector, (there are three/four multi blocks if my memory isn't playing tricks on me). I...

I have restored a number of classic Japanese motorcycles -- but fancied a slightly more challenging project this winter - the other picture, (in my previous post), is my Suzuki GT750 Kettle!

Unfortunately the 'inhabitants' had expired otherwise I would have fully complied with the European Rodent Re-Patriation Agreement and duly completed the required documentation, (in triplicate), before relocating them underneath one of our hedges! I have appended one of the first pictures...

Many thanks for the welcome. Please do not expect too much too soon! I have taken some pictures already and I have already started to strip the interior - just wondering where the hidden fixings are to remove the centre console base, (I have removed the cosmetic side panels, window switch and...

Hi there, I have always fancied owning a Range Rover since they first appeared but never quite got round to buying one - until now! As I already have a car, (and a Jeep Grand Cherokee), I couldn't really justify anything too grand, (expensive), so I have taken a big gamble by buying a bit of...
