Never !!!!:confused: 2004 Land Rover Range Rover HSE 4WD

Who did you drive for, I'm into fridges too although I dont have to drive them now:D

Oh, dint need one of em, got a good old fashioned HGV 1, anyway, I thought you needed to drive a motability car to tow one of them halfrauds trailers

Me fairey is a tad noisey so I was contemplating perhaps rebuilding it when the weather gets a bit warmer. Just wondered if it was financially viable to do so, what parts I would need, how hard it is to do it and roughly how much the whole thing will cost me. ta, Paul

What the hell's a B+E test

Dont forget the 300 tdi has the benefit of the door tops rusting out too, so after time, air con becomes standard....that pikey car dealer wants shafting!!!

Thats exactly it Charles, good fuel economy isnt just achieved by engine tinkering. Something you learn when driving HGV's is to look well ahead to anticipate whats going to happen on the road ahead, avoid hard braking, hard acceleration and keep speed to a sensible average. Also, tyre...

Well I have just calculated after the recent fill up that doing short distances around A & B roads, my TD5 has returned 29.8 mpg. That leads me to believe that on a run with cruise engaged, I should be well up in the mid to late 30's (I hope)

I live in norfook where there arent any decent roads to allow you to maintane a constant, economical speed over long distance. I blanked the egr off some months ago and even though most of my driving has been done recently with lights, heater etc on full belt, I have covered 442 miles and still...

Yeah, I got some of the gear, veteran mechanic at local independant specialist reckons 20/50 is the one for me 2 n quarter, then I saw that in asda and bingo!:D

That'll be good, thanks matey!

£2.10 + vat from paddocks, bought new wipers aswell so postage was negligable for the washers....still, its paddocks:eek:

Must be a retro fit I reckon cause the existing jets are not much cop, you have to drive into the wind hoping the spray hits either/both screens. Looks like I'll have to get another single and fit one either side. thanks fellas

Just ordered & received a washer jet for me 72 series from Craddocks. The one they sent has only 1 jet. Is it me being fick or should there be two seperate jets on me bonnet, cause at the moment I have a twin jet in the middle of my bonnet and it seems a bit daft fitting one thats only going...

Aah everything is clearer now, you have inside knowledge of these things...still, just a bit o fun ey? no arm done.

**** Slob!!! you spend waay too much time surfing tinternet. If you've got no legs then disregard that last transmission and accept my apology. **** I did chuckle though:D

Nothing I s'pose except he might look like Michael Flattely sitting down doing river dance, when it comes to gearchanges

But just to put your mind at rest Mrs Smith, me landy aint dinted and the collision wiv young Tommy must have given me washer bottle a jog cause they're working now. When young Tom comes outa his coma, tell him Fanks from me and reasure him that wiv only one leg he can still drive an auto when...

I understand Mr Slob's sentiments relating to the safety aspect of having operational wipers and washers (and compliment him on stating his point in such a direct manner), however, for the purpose of getting a ticket on said landy, indeed it is correct to assume that if the windscreen(s) are not...

Thanks Graham, everything is worth checking out, I'll have a look at that too.
