Hi Guys, Iv got a 200tdi discovery thats currently on 190,000 miles. on monday night i was driving her and after about 15 motorway miles i had got onto a 30mph road and was slowwing down to turn off and noticed a rumbling grinding kind of noise and the more i slowwed down the worse it got...

Eh???? Sorry, I dont get what you mean!

Hi, Just wondering if it is possible to fit a TD5 front end (light and grille) onto a 200tdi? If so what do i need to "recover" off the TD5 donor? are the bonnet and wings the same, and can i leave the 200tdi bumper on? cheers

From what people have said i dont think i will bother with the flimsy re inforcers as that is where the rust has started from! Will jus see how strong i think it needs to be when iv got everything all cleaned up!

Ah ha, Thanks guys, think i will just order the boot floor and forget about the re-inforcers for the time being, im sure i can fabricate something up! i think it is the main ones that have rotted through on the top, im gunna have a look to see what i can do to stop it happening again because...

Hi, I pulled my boot carpet back the other day and found a bit of a crusty boot floor. Its not a problem for me doin the floor, jus wonderin how many of the re inforcers there are, i thought there was 3 but there are only 2 on the paddocks website. do i have to buy new ones or can i just use...

Yeah i know all this, i have found a relitivly lightweight unbraked (well it has them but have been disconnected to bring it under the 750 unbraked limit) and i recon that i can get the car and trailer combo to weigh less than 750 as the car has no interior or glass and the engine is hardley...

I am not saying its a bad thing that they are making it so that you have to take another test, but i think it should be more vocational, as in you do a course through the dvla which shows you how to "tow safely" and have a small test at the end to see if you are capable or not rather than just a...

Exactly what i was saying fella, Its so damned annoying it really does get right up my nose! It is not so much being puilled over by the police that bothers me as i am sure that they dont really know the laws on this themselves and i bet its too much hassle for them anyway, by the time they...

Yeah i know, the thing that annoys me is that just because people are slightly older they are allowed to tow and simply because of a timelimit i cannot, this shows that it is not a safety issue otherwise they would have done something about the older licence holders as what stops a 70 year old...

Hi Just had a thought! :cool: What would happen if i were to use a home made trailer that hasnt got a plate showing the weights, then what would happen cos then obviously this would mean that the trailer does not have a M.A.M. Im just desperatly looking for loop holes in the law because if i...

bollox, dont think i can get from coventry to surrey without goin on da motorway! does any1 know actual cost for the test's and how difficult they are? I officially hate the law!!! :mad:

What's so funny??? :confused: Am i being really thick here or something?

Blimey i wasnt expecting this kind of responce! thanks!!!! Right so am i right in saying that i can do this if i take my granfather with me, as he has got a pre 97 licence and stick some l plates on i will be completly legal to tow????? Does this also mean that because i am displaying l...

Hi I am looking at buying a mini as a toy and need to get it collected on a trailer! The question is, can i do this legally? I only passed my test in 2007. i have a 1992 landrover discovery and a mini weighs 700 kg roughly and i am planning on hiring a trailer weighing roughly 400-500 kg...

Haha yeah i did mean 245! :doh: Has anyone had these tyres as they seem a lot cheaper than the coopers bf's and stuff, just wondering if there is a reason for this and i cant really find any reviews and stuff for them. they look like they have got a pretty beefy tread! i want to know how good...

Hi, iv found a set of "cheap" ish new Falcon A/T tyres, will these fit standard 300 tdi rims and wont need any body mods? the size is 145/70/16. On another note, are they ok off road, for green laning ect? Fankyou

Im guessing from all the smart comments that no body knows what it is? lol Seriously tho, has no one ever had this come on, cos it surely cant be the only one! Or am i being a "plum" and missing something? cheers

Is that a special feature on the export models???? haha Seriously tho, anyone got any ideas what it is? cheers!

Here are the pics of the troublesome light!
