Yep, they certainly do.

And don't I know it, had my camper into the local garage for a full service/safety check/and ALL fluids changed a couple of months ago. Mechanic warned me that the tyres needed changing before I use it, although there is plenty of tread and no sidewall crazing, they are 7 years old. :(:(:(

If you have a blowtorch you could anneal the one you have and re-use it.

The doris rolls her eyes a bit every time I say I'm just going to do "whatever" to either the 90 or Buttercup, but there again when was the last time we broke down? can't remember the exact date but it was sometime in the 90's when my Volvo managed to rip the prop shaft in two when pulling out...

I have a 200Tdi 90, swapped out the std T'box for a disco one some years ago, I run Cooper discoverer stt pro in 235/85/16 and from new these are tall for their size if that makes sense. Definetly sluggish to pull away, so I made a few gentle tweaks to the injection pump, which pretty well got...

Thats betterer..................nice colour, understated.

It's no good coming on here and posting stuff like that................we want photo's. Oh, and welcome.:D:D

Buttercup's got new boots. OOPS I forgot to put the center caps back in. Hankook Dynapro HP2 , road tested and must say very impressed, very stable, corner and brake lovely, and very quiet. For the price, about €120 each I am very happy with them, highway only but if I want to play I use...

Took the wheels off Buttercup today and gave the insides a good cleaning ready for dropping into the local garage tomorrow for a tyre change. Seems a pity as there is 7mm of tread left on the old tyres, but that is the problem, they are old and now have loads of crazing on the sidewalls near the...

+1 on the Fertan and Bonda primer, good stuff.

Rear wash/wipe on my 90 blew the fuse yesterday, new 5 amp fitted and wash was good but wiper blew it straight away. Spindle seized so a good waggle with some penetrating oil did nothing :mad::mad: Ok, prised off the gear cover and disconected the drive link, motor still wouldn't turn...

Similar in France, people do convert vans but as I understand it you are only able to have any two of the following three - water - electric - gas. Having all three would qualify as a camping car and without a manufacturers certificate of conformity for both the chassis and the habitation it...

If you loop a strop around one end of the timber to be moved, chances are it will rotate and dig into the ground. Best to use two stops, one each end and drag the timber up sideways.

Thought the steering was getting a bit wishy washy the other day, so this morning had the doris waggle the steering wheel while I had a look underneath. Bit of play in the drop arm ball joint, so drop arm off and with the help of my Britpart droparm ball joint repair tool stripped and re-built...

I had 6, cheap xmas prezzies, so no brainer.

I recon you might as well replace the whole lot, really look incredibly crusty, how much longer are they going to last anyway?

Well, I was going to say "get on with it ya wuss, don't let it beat ya" but seems like you've done a stirling job there anyway. Good.:):)

Nothing dodgy or criminal to report,,,,,,,,,,,,,,all I've done is charge the batteries, too many 5 minute journeys in this cold weather taking it's toll.

Too much heavy breathing ?

Bet that monstrosity has the turning circle of an oil tanker.
