Fitted a light bar and 300W of LED wonderfulness! Thanks to MHM for his help and Mrs MHM for tea and scoff :D

I'd be happy to help assuming I'm free :D

:( Would love to venture out - I think the lack of rain in the last couple of weeks may make things better on the local lanes, but am pre-booked on kid-visiting, which will be fun in its own way! :) Have a great time, let us know how things go.

Fitted a winch, just need to have the opportunity to go out and try it :D

Ah, so I am being over sensitive :oops:

And the relevance of it being a Defender as opposed to being a Lada, Skoda, Ford or any other vehicle? Or am I being over sensitive :rolleyes:

Fitted a snorkel including all of the "adjustments" to change the entry point into the airbox... I'll post a more detailed thread in the Discovery forum :)

Farnborough

OK, I'll come clean :oops: did some spontaneous laning - that's normal laning without the prep :) - this afternoon. Very pleasant, no dramas and far less scatchy than I expected :).

Wise advice, hadn't even looked on there, must be getting old (er)... Anyway, as I think I'll need these for my looming MOT, I've ordered some proto.

If you do get around to stripping bits out, I'm after the multiplugs and rubber surrounds that attach to the back of the headlights, with as much of the wiring as you can grab - mine have got damaged. Posted to Farnborough?

I wuz half pondering some light laning over the hols, but gonna be scratchy I suspect. Very few lanes around our way don't have some level of overgrowness :)

That would be great, thanks. Price for both collected please?

Driver's door glass - is it tinted at all? Also passenger side door mirror, including glass - is the adjuster and heater working? I would be able to collect

Just posted these on ebay if anyone interested http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=121731863743 I'm in Farnborough, they're collect only. Somebody changed LZ whilst I've been away, so not really got my head around posting pics... plenty on the listing though.

Trailwise isn't foolproof and has been known to have lanes missing or incorrectly tagged. I found a (v short) lane a couple of years ago and added it to Trailwise having confirmed its status with the local authority. Not worth driving mind :D

I was told exhaust gasket originally when my 300TDi start chuffing like a steam engine. Turns out it is the head gasket so that's been added to the timing belt and radiator. :( Still, should be sweet as a peach when I get it back :)

That's v interesting - the egr was removed before I bought the vehicle, so maybe that's why the previous owner wasn't overly concerned about the sensor getting knackered! Many thanks for that, always worth knowing, though based on Trax's comment above, not necessary! Many thanks all...:tea:

The cable into the temperature sensor on the top of the engine (multi-pin) is routed around the back of the engine and enclosed in a heat protecting conduit. This conduit has melted (it had been pulled against the exhaust outlet pipework) and subsequently broken, though the two core wire appears...
