    Thats what he told me, he did mention that unless I'm using a highly tuned engine the slightly cheaper (£62) unit would suffice!

    series 3 doors

    It's a fact that a series will teach you all the driving skills you don't have to practice so much in modern cars..like anticipatory braking etc! Bear in mind that slow as it is, a Land Rover is favourite vehicle of some remarkable people...Bryan Adams, Richard Hammond and many more!

    Fuel Saving tips required.

    Well I don't have a rev counter but with overdrive you do about 60 for the same noise as 50! I'd recommend it but you need to change down for hills etc. I'm contemplating electronic distributor and some road tyres which would help. These Colways are great off road but a bit heart stopping on...

    Gearbox Selector Seals (1982 Petrol Series)

    I've enjoyed removing an assortment of different sized fixings in order to lift the floor! I can now see why my Landy smells like a oil tanker! There is a large leak from the selector forks/gear stick seals. 2 Questions: 1) How easy are they to change/renew some say they always leak and that...
