    Insurance.

    My insurance is up for renewal at the February but not sure if im wanting to stay with my current insurer. I know Flux is on here but they have just never quoted good (tried to triple what i pay actually). Can anyone recommend any other companies that are good got under 25s?

    Stiff power steering.

    Seems to me like the pump is maybe on the way out. Could be the bearing in pump itself. This could be intermittent but i would flush the fluid, change the belt if that don't work new pump it is.

    My first Discovery 1

    Got it up on the ramp today to have a proper look over my purchase. Looked very good, having all brake lines replaced and a shiny new exhaust. Chassis needs 1 patch at either side at the back but thats easy, wheel bearings and brakes all good. Slight leak from the power steering lines but they...

    My first Discovery 1

    I know! Cannot fault its running just 1 large problem to sort and a few niggles. Thank you seems cheap motoring so far(fingers crossed) and put £30 of fuel in at fort william and seem to have half left? Which would mean 50mpg, surely that can't be right? Or dodgy fuel gauge?

    My first Discovery 1

    It has a few switches but they all do nothing, i assume 1 is for day running lights that have a broken wire but no idea what the other 2 are for I think it may be a slight adjustment job myself maybe out a mil or to. Better news is i got straightened out enough to at least be able to drive it...

    My first Discovery 1

    Bonnet is all fine, door seems ok other than dropped slightly but that drop could be age related.
