Well here's first coat of the restoration effort. I was actually sad painting over what was actually a nice finish, despite the colour! Not as good a finish now but looks more like a Landy Should !

I thought I was refreshing it in similar colour ;) Watch this space!

I can confirm this morning, it did not ;) it's just as hideous as yesterday!

Thanks! That's what I thought ;) I'll post the fix later! Just can't wait for paint shop to open!

I've done a terrible paint job!!! Terrible colour mistake!!! Will be fixing this tomorrow, its just an undercoat you understand ;)

Hi all, this was supposed to be a film of a lovely roller paint job on my lightweight, but it didn't quite turn out as I'd planned! Have a laugh at my expense!

I opted for a new one for sake of £15! Will fit it tomorrow! Cheers

I removed and stripped and cleaned the starter only to find there was nothing wrong with it! I also learned you can spark it with a jump lead from starting motor to battery if your cables are shot!!! ;)

Yes @Goc3k ! Good spot! I only had a tea though, honest! ;) Might see you up there!?

Sure am Scott! You? I don't really know any of roaders in the area, I use mine on estates mainly so don't really green lane for fun, but I'd like to.

Cheers Scottonthefen! I hope to tidy it up a bit soon!

Hello, I'm new to the forum (be gentle :))... I've got 3 "Landrovers" on the drive (I'm a lucky man), a Range Rover Vogue TDV8, a pimped up 110 twin cab and since last weekend a series 3 light weight I picked up cheap on eBay! Ones for office work, ones for hunting/woodland work and the light...

Thanks Diesel dog! I can see I'll be well at home on this forum! I might combine some hunting, landy driving and drone shots in a vid and post the results! Thanks for the welcome!!!

Hello Landy Lovers! I've long used your forum for solving problems and finding out how things worked, but I recently bought an S3 Lightweight on eBay (always wanted one!) to keep my 110 company on drive! I've never need your forum and help so much!!!! So thought I'd join up proper and say...
