I don't think you can get a RAL code for Epson Green. RAL is a colour chart of specific colours/shades.

I have a real one, if by real you mean the previous defender :) but for me it isn't a daily driver. I have a D4 which is perfect for me but will eventually need to be replaced.

My apologies, didn't see that one!

I was briefly contemplating about buying a new Defender one day... perhaps...just possibly. I've been following this series and it really doesn't fill me with confidence. First one needs a new engine after 170 miles, second one rendered irrepairable...

Hi, I'm looking for a military roll bar for a soft top like the one pictured with the brackets and support bars. Not too bothered about conditioned as I can always repaint it. Thanks @Rougharse Racing... I nicked your picture! ;)

Yes, that kind of military roll bar is exactly what I was looking for... but couldn't find one on eBay and wasn't sure where else to look...I am almost certain someone has one somewhere in a shed... I know I have loads of random parts I have accumulated... for instance I have a galvanised series...

I thought about a full roll cage but it would involve quite a lot of paperwork over here in Slovakia to have it all 'legal'. I don't do many miles in my defender, really just wanted something to provide a bit of extra protection just in case. The basic soft top roof bars look very thin

Hi all, am I correct in thinking this will also fit a TD5 90? The description says only 200tdi and when I chatted to them the customer service of Paddocks is "it only fits a 200tdi". Doesn´t make sense, I am pretty sure the tub is the same for all 90s (apart from some having a bulkhead and...

I´ve been on the phone to some companies. Turnerengineering don´t do V6 engines. Ovalautos only do supply and fit and it would be very complicated to send the car over and then back again. Nwsmotorservices look promising and they were very helpful over the phone. I am just waiting fro a quote...

I have certainly googled it after visiting his workshop, seeing the L405 in bits and knowing I have the same engine in my Discovery 4. Mine is on 110,000km at the moment and I am contemplating selling it just in case I run into problems. However, he also has a 350,000km Discovery 3 with a...

I am now mostly living in Slovakia and I haven't been back to Bedford at all this year due to various Covid restrictions. It is a shame as I also wanted to do the NC500 and visit the Scottish Islands. Hopefully next year. He needs to get the engine shipped over here from the UK. I have been...

Hi, my mate has got a Range Rover L405 in his workshop. The engine has seized as the crank bearings have failed. The crank itself hasn't snapped. The car has only done 98000km and everything else is working perfectly. What are the options? He is looking to source a reconditioned engine, can...

I think B ritpart I think britpart do some OEM props as well... Marked 'G' I think. The genuine LR ones are quite expensive

Yes, that is true but if the OP was intending to buy a new prop and replace the UJ's he may as well keep his existing prop and replace the UJs on that. I tried to replace the UJs on mine and found it quite difficult and in need of quite a bit of precision.

Isn't that what I said?

If you do decide to fit a new prop get OEM or better. Don't bother with the cheap ones cos they are genuinely ****e.

Mine had exactly the same issue...although I couldn´t get my wastegate actuator working properly so replaced the turbo. Works great since....well when I say works great, I mean just the turbo :)

I have a TD5 90. The original rubber mouldings around the footwell, over the gearbox and under the floor mats are now pretty nasty. Bits have fallen off whilst I was removing it with the intention of soundproofing underneath. The thicker bits are quite perished and probably hold water. A new...

Yes, they are 7J. There is a part number on them ANR1284

Thank you! I went to see so many... unbelievable how molested some of them were!
