Thank you Blackburn, paddock spares said they had no idea what they were doing there.

Does anyone know what these holes are for in my series 3 109, I tried getting blanking plugs for them but paddock spares don't know what they are, they reckon they are an aftermarket hole.

The driving im quite happy with, i have done a fair bit of offroading but in military land rovers, I've tried all my gears in all ranges and they all work as they should. I'll be treating mine with a bit more care as I don't have the same budget as the mob :) The turning circle is massive, my...

I'm from Essex, so no mountains I know of Just fancied a go, mine is completely standard, aside from the weber carb that was on it when I got it, have a bit of a snag with it icing up not long after starting but other than that it runs sweet. I was more worried about doing the clutch a mischief...

I am looking at doing a bit of green laning in my series 3 109, nothing too serious, it's an early 2.286 3 main bearing petrol, just wondering if anyone uses theirs for it, do they handle ok(as well as can be expected) and are there any tweaks I can do that might need doing before I give it a go.

Thanks for the advice, I think I might look at 're routing the pipe.

Good morning all, My Series 3 Petrol (2.286 3 main bearing) has a Weber carb on it, had it when I got it, I've noticed it ices up a bit, is there anything I can do about it. Would I be better off changing it to the original carb, I'd have to get hold of one if they are still available, or would...

Evening all, I have just crawled out from beneath my engine, it's a 2.286 petrol, 3 bearing, as identified on here yesterday, I have noticed the mounts are shot, they look to be the correct type (circular), the gearbox ones are shot as well (explains the vibration)but are square, I think this is...

Thanks wireman.

Afternoon all, I know my engine is a 2 1/4 petrol, not the original one as my series 3 109 was a Diesel when made, not sure what one though. Can anyone make out the serial number on the photograph, going to get a wire brush In a bit to give it a going over.

Good morning, I know this must have been asked a million times on here but I can't find it. My series 3 needs a passenger footwell replacing, how much would I be looking at(If anyone has had it done recently) to have it replaced, I've found a replacement footwell, just need the welding done.

Morning all, I'm in need of new springs on a series 3 88" 2 1/4 petrol, I want to do a bit of green laning this year and was wondering if it was worth upgrading or just replacing.

Thanks for the reply, I'd definitely be getting a welder in to do it, and just get the whole footeelldone. I'll do the advisory thing online, never knew about that. I'm good with the mechanical side of things, just not much cop at stitching metal together.

Hi, I'm in Essex, the car is in Bristol, it has a current MOT that expires in February, I've only seen pictures, the car is pretty clean other than the footwell, I've never had to have welding done on a car before, I just didn't want to buy it and end up with thousands of pounds worth of...

Hi all, I'm looking at a series three Land rover and the MOT is up in February next year, the current owner says there is a bit of the drivers footwell that needs a small repair that is within 6 inches of the brake pedal, he says it might fail the MOT because of it, does anyone know roughly how...

Afternoon all, I have been looking at a few different series for a while now, iv'e only ever had an old 110. One in particular has caught my eye, it's a 1959 Series 2, but has had some series 3 upgrades in the form of post 1981 running gear and 2 1/4 Diesel fitted, wiring needs looking at(I'm...

Shimsteriom, I have been looking while down here, seen a couple of decent projects, a nice lightweight and a 109 on the radar at the moment, just investigating the shipping cost and how to go about re registering in the UK.

Hi all, I am between Land rovers at the moment, had an old 110 a few years ago, i am looking for either a series 2a or 3 for my next one, I am currently drafted to the Falklands, never seen so many Land rovers in one place.
