Hello all, I've got this old V8 boat and would like to put the correct seating back in it because I'm fairy sure it shouldn't have what it currently has in it. It has that sort of chequer plate pattern, which is ok but more importantly, it has high back 2nd row seats. Initially I was...

You too? My commiserations :)

It's only mildly annoying really and I've just got used to it. Come the big rebuild, it'll be looked into more closely and rectified once and for all. It's a bloody awful way to get to work and back really but I think it's great. "Aren't you cold?" Yes but I can wear gloves "You smell of oil and...

From memory yes, however it take a lot more turning over. Manual.

Shame isn't it. All those skills are going to disappear.

I think it's the holly 500? I have a manual somewhere.

I've had it for a year and it's always been the same. It's not particularly irritating, more of a quirk. Ok, a possible job for a weekend once some bits are gathered. Or I go the lazy route and get it done for me :) I have been toying with the idea of swapping over to that Holly/Webber fuel...

Aha, that makes sense! Dump fuel in to start it then it needs the revs holding up for a few seconds to stay running because it's a weak mixture. Plugs are fine and were changed recently and made no difference to starting or running. I've just remembered that the previous owner said they had to...

Hello all, You've aided me with an an overheating issue, which is all sorted now, so I would now like to ask about the starting process I have to go through. I hope it's a simple one. It starts every time, I don't struggle to start it but it's not a straighforward process, well, i't just not...

These are really in the way now. I'm going to leave the Ebay advert as is for now but if anyone on here wants them for £50 then let me know.

I have just removed these side steps from my 1983 Land Rover 110 V8 because I wanted to go back to the individual side steps. They are easy to remove and fit and only require a few M8 bolts to mount to your 110 Land Rover. Please remember that these are used so there are some marks here and...

What's their issue with a different engine number if it's from the same car/era? Pussies.

Is that for legal/import reasons or just the customers demands? I can find out though.

It was built as and still has a V8 in it. Whether it's the original engine number, I don't know. Does that make a difference?

Nope but I'm going to look now. Maybe I'm sitting on a goldmine.

And they pay that? They do know what they're getting, right?

Do we have a skewd sense of the value of some of these models? Yes it's an okd Land Rover with some good and bad aspects but for him to put that value on it, a a trader, must mean something, right? I had seen a couple of others of similar vintage but shinier and with more miles for about...

Good, so it's not just me. Not that I don't want it it be true, if it does sell then I'm sitting on quite a pot of money :)

I have a question about this -...
