No because the engine is the same basic lump as stipulated in the regs. Engines are not regarded as particularly important and the 1960 2 1/4 petrol is not that much different from a 1984 2.5n/a diesel.

I swapped a petrol for a diesel (2.25 petrol to 2.5n/a/diesel ) and just filled in the v5 and sent it off, no problems at all. Just tell your insurance it shouldn't make any difference at all but you must tell them cos if you claim and the fuels wrong they'll question it.

I took mine a year or 2 back to a local garage who did the test but just not through the system, I think you will find places to do that but probably not all.

Maybe because swansea is still shut.

You can see if its exempted if you go to DVLA website and look for mot history and vehicle check, it'll tell you either its mot'd or not , or it will say no results found in which case its probably been exempted already.

When I did mine a few years ago I had to fill in that form and take it with the tax form to the post office for them to send off together.

They are but I need to register my ex-mil 109 for the first time. got to be done by post.

I think thats right but you may have to declare mot exemtion the first time you do it, thereafter it automatically comes up with the tax. Must say historic on the v5 though. As an aside is the DVLA open for postal business yet?

As James said, theres ways to measure how much clearance you have between the tip of the rod and the master cylinder but the best way to tell if its ok is by feel. By that I mean if you push the pedal you will (or should) feel a small gap......its hard to explain but try it and see. If theres no...

Hard pedal can be caused by incorrect adjustment of the servo rod to the master cylinder.

No I think you're right, its the same part that goes on a truck cab so that it doesn't clash with the corner windows.

;)

I'd feel better with a cowling on it though.......those metal fins are like blender blades:eek:.

I think you spelt panhard rod wrongly.

This is what you want. Got some for mine years ago nearly the same as originals. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Land-Rover-Decals-Stripes-county-90-Defender-Landrover-Graphics-stickers/174215402982?hash=item28900c15e6:g:FpAAAOSwiEVeqwqZ

I think I've got a series 2 tap kicking about, if you decide you want one later let me know. If you pick it up its your's for the price of a can of Scrumpy Jack:D

I'd imagine the defender bits would fit, the tub is the same size.

Only in the middle of winter.......sub zero then;)

Hah!.....puny.

Yes beats me how to bend a thing like that, you'd have to be really trying.....had considered heating it up and having a go at straightening it but haven't got a vice big enough.
