That looks like someone has really gone to town on it! I hope mine doesn't end up looking like that when I come to change my bushes! I have all the bushes and new bolts to do it, just need some time to get around to it as i'll be DIYing it, drilling/cutting the old bushes then chiselling them...

Mine is constantly somewhere between 1/4 and 1/2, it's like fuel roulette. I really need to look into it, feeling like it very much could be an earth issue or something else electrical as I had issues with the temp gauge to begin with too.

If you live locally I would just go and look at it, if you don't know what you're looking for regarding rust etc take someone who does. Of course as people have said above check the VIN, everything needs to match, pay for a carvertical check or similar as MOT history isn't everything. I found...

I think it looks quite nice. I think I'd prefer it if mine was that colour rather than your typical army/nato green. Speaking of mine... day 3 of doing things, I dug into the misfire, played about with things, got it running better... nearly couldn't get her started again in Lidl car park...

At it again for a second day in a row... finishing off the wheel bearing, which was easier said than done, having made a bit of a mistake yesterday! I got there in the end though, swivel housing refilled and went out for a drive. Still got a misfire under light load to investigate more and...

So today since I was off work I thought I'd make the very sensible decision and do some work on the 110... got a gas strut fitted on the rear door, refitted the chequer plate panel on the door and put one of those folding table things on it. Then the delivery guy came bearing gifts and I was...

The heating in my 2.5 Petrol is actually alright to be fair! Although I know this is absolutely an exception and most will be cold... although you could always fit a diesel heater. I do concur on the turning circle though, I have to reverse my 110 into my drive on a somewhat tight road and it...

No experience of either but the X Defend just looks quite weak to me... is that going to withstand more than a minute or two with a grinder? Probably not... it looks like you could just cut down one side of the hinge and then effectively only have to cut half the steel. The Ardcase defo...

Sorry to hear you're having issues on ebay, absolutely not uncommon by the sound of it. These mouth breathers walk amongst us unfortunately!

If you can figure out a cheap way of calling, some of the brokers may be able to help providing you have a UK address to give them and give them the exact model of the vehicle and specific modifications. Some people seem to dislike them but I'd definitely give Adrian flux a try! I went through...

That definitely works in your favour! I'm 31, 9 years no claims and its only just getting to the point where insurance prices are coming right down :rolleyes:

Yeah as above the 90 should be easier and cheaper to insure, assuming it's not overly modified (within reason for a 40+ year old vehicle)... My 1988 110 costs just under £300 on a classic policy :D Half the price of my Audi!

Well I'm not quite sure exactly what the issue was but touch wood I've fixed it! Got her running again this afternoon after giving the float bowls another clean out, checking the float level and blowing out the needle valve. Then replacing the fuel filter and going over the ignition, adjusting...

If its just something to work on together I wouldn't necessarily discount a 90, I mean at least they're a manageable size... or a later series for a restomod style build? I guess you don't really know what this child will want, they might even end up wanting to get into something different...

Fair point! I think ebay sold prices probably offer a better insight than ads, as they reflect what has actually sold... not what dreamers hope someone will pay! I mean in my opinion you should still be able to get a project requiring chassis replacement etc for a couple of grand if you keep...

Also on that Ad, can they get any more gauges in that thing? It's just missing an Altitude meter, ASI, virtual horizon and a yoke!

I think chancers and people who are convinced they're getting every penny they spent back make up a good proportion of sellers.... I mean people are entitled to ask whatever price they want, but of course if it's not realistic it will just sit for sale for months on end. If something is a...

I guess ultimately something is only worth as much as another will pay for it! I feel like its a typical case of sellers wanting top money for their cars but buyers wanting something for nothing. There are a lot of dreamers out there, but if you look hard enough and are patient you can...

Also on the perished hoses... I still have hard lines running down the chassis but I know some of the rubber hoses need replacing, to be fair maybe the tank does too as theres a good amount of debris caught in the filter. It could be a case of new tank and replace the all the pipes, maybe the...

I was trying to avoid a rebuild as the carb itself has been on the Landy less than a year... I can see it has '21' in the casting so its not that old either. The one thing I haven't checked with the carb is the float level needle valve though so I will do that. If I need theres an almost new...
