I found a kit on eBay that fits the washers on to wiper arms, works wonderfully well, squirts just In front of the blades.. Something like this...

I've no intention of doing it, but the headlamp conversion permission for my 1984 110 is interesting. I found a quality H4 halogen a good improvement over the standard bulb in there before.. I have changed all other lights to LED, since the casing is the same size and shape as the standard bulb...

The max height is often due to transitions at ramps, a man doesn't have have that problem, Having the front wheels on the flat and the rear up on the ramp may bring the roof too close to the ceiling. Locking your ride height down you may have the problem of grounding when going over some...

Don't have a clock so it's easy, she a 110 van, was 100% for several years, until the wipers broke over the winter, now fixed, and now where the windscreen rubber meets having gone round the screen, there is now a 1/4 inch gap I haven't got round to filling. Might do that tomorrow.

I've got an LSD on the back, this has worked a few times, in snow and hauling up boats up slipways onto a gravel carpark. Because of this I've only needed the diff lock a couple of times, driving across a field in over a foot of snow and up a slope in snow. Even chunky tyres can get clogged...

Often drive a green lane ***** in my standard 110 or the wife's Kia Rio. We near enough live on it.. Mind you quite rough.. For a tarmacked road... ***** As defined in the county map.

Not for work, but until I retired I was driving my 1984 110 with 200tdi to work every day that's 25 miles each way. Plus I use it for launching and recovering boats of up to 3/4 ton.

A lot of Albanians have made the crossing, and many more are running the trips.

300mile range, in the summer with no load. Make it winter so you need lights, wipers and heating plus add a decent load. You'll not get 100 miles

Yep I know, but I have faced cattle on roads, I stopped they mostly went round, but several bumped into the front.

A road full of cattle at least they don't damage the front of the landy.

Was going to fix the wiper mechanism today but it's darn frosty, and from yesterday I never have to go to work again. So the work has been postponed till Monday when the seaweed inspectors promise a huge 10C.

Because they're not old enough to remember / use other 1950s designs. I've built a partition between driver and van body on my 110, fixed behind the driver, removable behind the passenger. The body and cab were given the big rubber floor mat, flashing tape, eva foam routine to cut noise, but it...
