Update on this is that the landy is currently with Chapel Land Rovers who are going to do the work for me. Looks like a really good set up - will report back

Looks nice Johnny. I'm pretty sure it's a bog standard red so I'm sure someone on here will have the code. I do need to treat the join where you have painted yours - it gets a bit moist in the back if it rains:o

bring it on:) I commute 30 miles each day on the bike and I'm doing a triathlon in the summer where the bike leg is 336 miles:D

Brilliant, thanks Storm99 That is very handy for me - I live in Glossop so I could drive to Ashbourne leave the landy and cycle back. Hopefully they could do the axle joint too. I will give them a call and sound them out over the phone but if anyone else has any experience of them that...

Thanks for the replies - Obviously I'm not going to sell it to HB. I'm currently exploring getting the cross member done by an independent and will then re-consider my options. Next question is - what do you think it would be worth with a new cross member, 12 months tax and fresh MOT: 1992 and...

Hi I had a bit of a disappointing day today and need a bit of advice. About a year ago I inherited my 1992 Defender 90 2.5 tdi hard top. It has been in our family since it was new, been garaged all it's life, regularly serviced and amazingly has still only done just over 60,000 miles. It has...

Well as requested - and just to show it off really - here's some pics - And here are the bits that need attention - This is the worst wheel but they are all similar So: there you go - a Land Rover - you may have seen one before:rolleyes: Hopefully you will agree...

Thanks for the responses. Griffdowg, thanks for the welcome and MrJC thanks for the correct descriptions and advice too. I will have a go at it over the next couple of weeks. I will soon be having a 1973 Alfa Giulia GTV residing in the garage so the Landy will be my daily driver (when I'm not...

Evening all - my first post, hope you can help. First a bit about my LR - I have recently become the proud owner of a 1992 red and white Defender 90 2.5 tdi hard top. This vehicle has been in my family since new and my sister and I jointly inherited it when my Dad passed away a couple of...
