Hi all been busy with my 110 hardtop that was my barn find bargain, now in use as Overland Traveller. two Pyrenees trips under her belt now. So have bought a side locker to fit in the drivers side rear panel. ( fed up moving the recovery kit everytime i want to setup camp) Didn't come with...

We did the Pyrenees last year, first big trip was solo vehicle missus and me, the vehicle was a barn find i had done up see thread https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/potential-110-project.365519/ re the Pyrenees Travel we elected to go Plymouth to Santander, ferry crossing 20 hours best...

Well done Mate, we did the pyrenees in may with mine, same ferry crossing with Brittany ferries. We were on pont aven which wasn't a bad boat. when we costed it out the fuel and tolls were dearer than the ferry and a 1000 miles each way. Did u do morrocco alone or on an organised trip.? We r...

Fitted the adapter to inlet manifold so my boost gauge will finally work and then drove 50 miles to pick up some RX8 seats Looked at how to fit new side facing lights to roof rack as broken the others in Wales in Oct. got a list to work through as off to Pyrenees in 121 days...

Perfect cheers Phil, my new tank is leaking at the sender have had it on and off couple of times now.. so that will be the stuff i think Cheers Hope your well

Good looking 90 that yep it will be quicker and more economic on smaller tyres, wont have the road presense or ground clearance, one option is to keep an eye on the bay for a set of boost alloys on 235 /85 16 which a lot of newer 90 were fitted with standard, cheap way to change tyres or...

Thats good to know as we are similar size height wise and plan on leaving bulkhead in mine ( no option at moment as it is a pickup but plan on converting to hardtop van)

Did this to mine a few years ago. The disco engine will be a 200tdi Most of the bits off the disco will work it is just the tensioning bit that i seem to remember being a problem you may need to make a bracket or adapt one also you may have to go to motor factors with a string template to...

Funny that it is a Dayco.. will get a gates one and try iit

Just to update the thread. fitted the Fuel Pump and injectors that Diesel Bob had refurbed for me. Got brave and used the flange on my Timing kit so didn't even have to retime the or refit Timing belt Runs lovely super responsive and very fast.. Very happy well worth the money would...

if it is firing on 4 and the FIP has been apart is the FIP flange been put on correctly, as i got mine 180 out on the 200tdi pump and took me ages to work that out. My 2.5Na i bought as a non runner just put a battery on it and yanked it down the road started within 400yds 2.5 na starts...

Good luck mate,

Just looked back through my threads and found when i did mine. the advice then was same as is on here. https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/funny-how-one-small-job-leads-to-a-list.329042/ post 9 or 10 i think onwards Mine started a treat and ran until this last winter when the FIP died...

hello and welcome to the madhouse, looks a nice motor and hopefully not to much restoring needed But any question or help just pop along to teh 90 110 defender section we are all fairly friendly and helpful in there

Not always, could just need a smell tweak rather than being v loose

def check the fluid, mine went stiff yesterday thought belt had slipped.... fluid res was nearly empty..

Fresh Diesel, good battery and do as @jamesmartin suggest above.. Bet if you do all of that she will fire up...

Think if it is a hard body with no windows or seats in the back or a pick up even a double cab you could run it as a biz vehicle claim it was a van and put it through your books as such and not pay company car tax on its use. My L200 is on the books and will probably put the 110 on them as well...
