That is about the usual variance I belive, it is normal for an analogue speedo to read a bit high. It is possible to change the drive gear to get it more accurate.

Thanks for that, yes I am aware of that, and that is one reason it may not be quite so straight forward. The ironic thing was that I was all tooled up ready for a licence swap years ago, only to be told by the powers that be to not bother as the UK licence was valid. With brexit on the horizon I...

Yes thanks, I got the EU one last year after a lot of faffing about, then of course had to change it for the "after brexit" one. That at least was easy. Now just about to start jumping through hoops to exchange my driving licence.

Ey up @Datatek , nice to see you, how's it all going?

Old un's, but good un's. I want to change the rubber, but after hardly using Buttercup for 18 months it's going to be next year now.

I need to get some paint on the tow hitch, her arse is starting to look well scruffy!:D:D:D

This is half of it, not got a better photo to hand.

I built a large open sided lean to on the back of one of our barns, direct access to the parking space/road. It protects from the worst of the weather and is good in that there is plenty of ventilation. Theft is not really a problem around here (famous last words) but if we go away for more than...

Classic case of fashion over function as far as I'm concerned. Get a refund and go for something simple that works.

Does it not tell you in the manwell...............??

The roller and wedge original system will work well if looked after. When I used to trial in comps part of the scrutineering was that the hand brake had to hold on a minimum slope of 45 degrees. Never had a problem with that as long as everything was set up properly.

Heard of a chap who gets up an hour early so he can have a rest before he goes to work. :D:D:D

That's what I do, black gaffer tape and cut to suit the lines on the glass after fitting. May not be right but never had a problem.

+1 on the returns policy. I bust the flutes on the tip of a phillips bit on an impact driver, thought there was no chance of a replacement, but there you go, full exchange. Brilliant.

Well, I feel quite inadequate now. Nobody's following me. :(:(:oops::oops::oops: Much more of this and I shall be jumping off my wallet.

Google reciprocating tool, images. Carefull now.

I had same trouble sorry. (posting the link)

Years ago I knew a guy whose gran lived on one of the islands, he always paid extra for next day delivery from Gloucestershire, always got a refund as they always failed. Least that's wot e said.

I thought the main function of the breather was to allow air to enter the axle when a warm axle went into cold water, otherwise water could be pulled into the axle through the seals on the hub. Not just a puddle, but where the vehicle had driven on the road (say) and then entered flood water or...

Some years ago I tried cleaning the mud/water level off my door cards, not very successfull I must say. Thought about paint, then thought "sod it - it's like dents in the wings - honorable battle scars".
