Ain't that the truth! My mate reckons they are like owning a stately home. Once you have replaced fixed everything, the first problem needs working on again.

Okay Folks, I picked up the seats today. The guy in the shop said it would need lap belts to pass an MOT. Now on my searchings, it seemed the consensus that sideways seats did not need belts at all. Does anyone have any little nuggets of wisdom on the subject. I'm thinking he doesn't know what...

Cheers Guys, I will go for the britpart ones then. I'll look to add a rubber strip also.

Hi Guys I am looking to add a couple of bench seats in the back of the 90. I see Britpart ones at 60quid, but Exmoor ones at £110. To my eye they look identical, but I hear so much negative stuff on Britpart. Is the Exmoor worth the extra loot? What are the differences?

Out towards Gainsborough. Where abouts are you?

Hi all. Looking for members and services (that come recommended) in Lincolnshire. Is there anyone local? Also Looking for a reliable garage that won’t cost the earth

Got all excited until I saw it was sold out :(

Have you got any more pics or information? PM me if you like?

I will probably leave it as is then. I have noticed it seems to rub on the radius arm at full lock. If i see some wheels with tyres at a good price, i may pick them up, but I wouldn't want to go too small. It would look silly with the lift. I was thinking around the 285/75/16 or 255/85/16

Sooooo...... One thing that isn’t immediately apparent from the pictures (to me, at least), is the size of the wheels! This thing is huge! The tyres are 315 75 16. Does anybody else run these? I’m sure they will effect economy, but are there any other negative aspects to this? Would it be worth...

Ok, sounds good. So no red flags in the engine department? I haven’t heard of repower packages. Were thèse kits from Land Rover, at the time? I suppose I just wanted to know I had a good starting point in ownership I’lll look into a couple of ramps. I will probably need them at some point...

I'll get used to posting pics soon lol

I have a compressor and gun, but do not have a lift. The vast majority of my spannering is on Motorbikes. I have been quoted 200-250+vat for a waxoyl job at my local independent Landy place. Pic again, hopefully bigger :D

Thanks for your replies guys. So it looks like the engine is a replacement. Does anybody know if Disco tdi engines used the same engine numbering system? Is there a way I can tell if it is Disco or Defender., and does it really make any difference at all? Also, are the proofing services provided...

Well after much deliberation, I've gone and put a deposit on a Land Rover 90. Had a Freelander for a couple of years, but finally gone for it. A couple of things. It is an F reg '89, but from the engine number it appears to have a 200tdi engine in. I am assuming it has had a replacement at some...

Hi All, Just recently picked up a TD4. Judging by the diff bushes, I’m sure all be a regular contributor Based in Lincolnshire, so there should be a few of you local to me. Look forward to meeting some of you to
