    intermittent starting & running issue

    Check the condition of the breather pipes and the mesh filter (I can never remember the name) or replace it with the BMW separator type.

    Yeah, if it's the one I think it is, and I only heard it second hand as I wasn't there. However there seemed to be a disagreement about what a Guiness bid entailed paperwork-wise and depending what side you hear the details from, different people see the episode .... well... differently! Same...

    Buying Expedition Landrover - Australia

    Hmmmm nice idea. However I have been stung by 'Buy back pricing' when in Cyprus on tour. Bought an 8yr old disco for £7500, sell back offer 3 years later £2500!!! I opted to container it back and drive it here for another 5 years!

    Convoy for heroes 2014..

    Any Forces charity is worth supporting IMO and C4H thought it worth holding an event for those taking part after being inspired by bikers riding through Royal Wootton Bassett.

    the old girls losing power from around the turbo

    There is a seperate fuel supply to the FBH. How do you know it's trying to start up? Also go to the Introduction section and introduce yourself first as many people on LZ prefer for you to do so before posting in the general forums.

    new tyres

    FL1 to the rescue! (well, sort of)

    Mini river or mini pond? Either way there are issues concerning what is lurking under the water. Drains are under pressure and can collapse.... check out you-tube for video's of these. Those of us in 4x4 Response have had much discussion about this, especially after the various fatalities and...
