    Steel Fast are great... their offcuts are major enough for most jobs.... they actually gace kai a ****load of steel when he was practising welding... didn't cost us a bean! On the lookout for some Wheel nuts if anyone has some for steel rims floating about? I had about three sets... but they...

    I don't mind spending a few quid to get a good and reliable box in there. The engine is good... or seems to be, would like it to be fairly reliable eventually. Wasn't too worried about the engine when I purchased it... I have another.. and the important thing for me was that it had not gone...

    Jay.... think less about small sapling and more....giant redwood! BTW What Auto box can I transplant into my disco? It has an auto in there atm but it would benefit from being replaced.... and that is the only bit of a disco I do not currently own! Bloody typical really!:D

    Went and took a look at the little lane by the dog kennels after picking the kids up from school today... it's got a sodding great tree blown down across it.... still off the ground by about six feet but not looking too entertaining. Noticed that some naughty people have been "adjusting" the...

    Cooking what has been caught wild. I imagine it would turn his stomach at first.... but if he wants to cook then I see no reason why he shouldn't have a good idea where it originates. Gonna hope to get there next Sunday.... gigging on the night before though... and that might be a late...

    Definitely sounds like a decent Idea jai. Spydie.... I think perhaps you are thinking a little too harshly. I don't have several motors spread around in the way you describe... I had a disco and the series... but when we ran out of money... we realised that we had to prioritise and wait for...

    Spydie ... you are prob right. Jai... what can I say... my job is not to have fun myself... but to make sure that he has every opportunity I can give him. They may not be many... and yoiu may be right that he should have nothing if he does not earn it himself... but without someone giving him...

    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    You may well be right, Jai... we haven't reached a real decision yet... but I feel duty bound to let kai have a major role in making the decision... he has been working so very hard at college and at home with his mechanics as well as the music... I just think he deserves the chance to make a...

    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    I may well do that Jai - I do have some other options in mind as well though. Kai is progressing well with his games and mechanics and fancies hammering it a bit. All options are open at the moment... Not quite as hard up as I was earlier in the year or even last year... Have a few additions...

    Will post photies tomorrow. Might nip over to my other tdi and grab the starter from that while mine is being reconned. It's in norfolk though so it is a bit of a trek to say the least!

    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    I find myself in possession of a 200 tdi disco with a slightly reluctant starter motor... it goes with a whack so I guess the brishes need some attention.... Anyone got one they no longer need? Could do with replacing the starter and then repairing the old one since brushes are like rocking...

    Brilliant Land Rover pictures form the Weekends bad Weather

    Love the movie version.... Nice tilt at 4:08 Looking at the tilt and the incline to the right... I would have been a little concerned.... it is one of my great hates is a side tilt!

    Hi Ash... see you lurkin there!

    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    Yeah.. it is cheaper to buy a v8... but it would be so much more expensive in the long run... I reckon I would be out of pocket in about six weeks. I can get a 200 tdi for under a grand that is halfway decent... and then either break and sell our other one or re-assess.

    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    Righty Ho... keeping my eyes open for a cheap discovery... I know they are holding their prices.... but I have a seriously limited budget and simply want something to run around in... would prefer a 200 tdi rather than a V8... for all the obvious reasons

    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    A lane from Caddington to Berko would be a bleedin long one! Only one I know up that Caddington way would be the Slip end one. It ihas width restrictions at each end.. but to my knowledge no TRO You can get a disco through the width... with about an inch to spare on either side... haven't...

    Some muppet is stuck

    It was a slitty... and jeez you wouldn't go down that on your own if you were in a defender would you? I thought I did it wrong all those years ago - at least I were legal!
