    Tax + MOT exemption... I'm confused!

    There's a budget tomorrow. I wouldn't be surprised if the money grabbing barstewards do away with the free road tax.. My 110 is 40 in November...

    I would just like to say

    I would just like to say, today starts regatta week, Horning regatta started 1903, which means we had the regatta almost 4 times as often as that minor event in Paris. I've been attending for the last 45 years. The weekend sailing is on the Broad, but from Monday to Friday, it's on the river...

    cb radio handset sets off wipers

    Type "clip on Ferrite rings" into Amazon. Should stop strange transmissions, clip one round your DC feed wires to the CB set, and with your mic problems one round it's cable would be a good idea too.

    Tow hitch height versus horse box issue (Defender 110 2011)

    Remember to keep the pin and linch pins greased. Because if not greased when you need to change height they'll have rusted solid .. As I found out, as now I have two trailers needing different height settings.

    Defender Maximum Ride Height Question

    I've seen video of military land rovers going totally under water, fitted with tall snorkels, the drivers in scuba gear. Driven straight off tank landing craft into the sea.

    Marmite, Br#xit or Low Traffic Neighborhoods

    I doubt it will get worse. It's a case of diminishing returns, once the general populace is forced out of their non qualifying cars there'll be so few non qualifying cars left for them to make money from they'll stop and find something else to tax.
