    Your thoughts on owning an old Landy in the future?

    Diesel can run on veg oil so putting the price of fuel up not really a option. But petrol is a bit harder to make at home. I suspect that the real threat to landies and other old cars would be the shift away from Dino juice and the scarcity of fuel.

    rolling m.o.t. status like tax exempt

    My 2a has just passed it's last mot. But i'm thinking that I should get a expert to give the old girl a yearly safety check. What is everyone else thinking of doing? I would have thought that the insurance company may want something.

    Me and pat also share a series 3 LWB van as a ongoing joint project. I've gained two girls since then age 3 and 7 so don't have much time for greenlining but I get out occasionally on some of the easier lanes. How about you ? do you still take beginner's out over the back there?

    Wanted LWB Series - swap for 97 4.6 HSE daily driver

    I have one. A 109 van body with capstan winch but no MOT. She is a 3/4 project that's stalled due to family commitments. She runs and needs a little more TLC (put the seats and floor plates back in and a good service) to make it on to the road. PM me if interested.

    Lightweight front axle / steering problem

    this will be your prob "I recently changed the front brake shoes and drums for an MoT, which she passed" I bet your drums are not perfect and general they require a coupe of thousand miles before they bed in. cheep drums take more bedding in.
