I'd forget the Defender or Range Rover and go for something a little more interesting, like my recent purchase...

I waded a Citroen ZX diesel over the bonnet one night driving home from work. Not through choice. My own fault though. I should have waited a few seconds more to guage the depth on the Disco 1 i was following into the dip in the road before driving in myself. I was past the point of no return...

Mine need some attention. Especially the driver's side which is making a bit of a mess... I've heard that you dig out any pitting in the swivel, clean, degrease and then fill with epoxy glue and sand it down. A mate who used to knock about with a chap who had a GS told me that you can change...

I read online that the bargrips are 33 inches tall. That's 838mm in new money. I went for the Toyo LT255/85xR16 because they are supposed to be 846mm tall and fit on the standard 6.5inch rim. They also do an LT315/75xR16 which is 884mm tall but need an 8.0inch rim (ideally 8.5inch) So in theory...

I have yet to see a 101 actually on the road! In fact i've seen more Scorpion tanks on the road than 101s. I almost followed one into Able Engineering when i went to collect a load of bits but the other chap beat me there by about three minutes.

They make my Toyos look like something out of a Liquorice Allsorts bag! Lovely wheels too!!!

And where did one find those? Do they fit onto standard rims?

Sadly not yet. I've either been working or it's been wet. Last Sunday i planned to change the headlight bulbs in my Ibiza then crack on with the 101 brakes. It's a pain in the arse job entailing removing the fuel filter and cradle to gain access to the driver's side bulbs and the battery and...

I remember coming home from work one night and my mom was still climbing the wall from spending about fifteen minutes trying to get out of the shop at the top of the road. It was rainy season. The M5 flooded southbound so the closed it. As you say they then diverted the traffic down the A38. Oh...

The rozzers can be right dicks at times! I was coming home one night after work. It had been raining a lot and i was experiencing flooding in places i'd never seen before. I was in my S2(avatar) When i got to the traffic lights where i can get home by either going straight on or turning left, i...

It's from 2020. I wondered if it features any fellow nutters from here?

I subscribed to the mag at the show. I rarely read mags so i've got two years worth stacked on the bedroom floor still unopened. Next to them a similar number of Practical Performance Cars. I've just subscribed to Land Rover Monthly online. At least that will free up some floor space 😁

My 1961 Series 2 once had a 'battery inciden'. Travelled to see a mate who rebuilds Citroen 2CVs and Dyanes minus everything above the bulkhead vents, including windscreen. (it was that day when the sun came out and didn't rain) While leaving his garage bumping over the rough ground the engine...

What Galladog said. I just got one for my 101 to clear up a whole lot of WTF? V5 said it was manufactured in 1982, rebuilt - assembled using parts some or all of which were not new. Year of first use 1998 And it is an X reg which is 1981 The certificate stated it was manufactured in 1977, which...

That's not good. So all a terrorist has to do is wrap his cemtax in an opened cheddar wrapper to get it through customs? EEEK!

R-Tech are a good make. We had a 200amp AC/DV set at my last place for welding the aluminium flood barriers. When i get my garage built an AC tig machine will be high up on my list!

They could change the new EV car tax to one based on weight instead of what comes out of the tail pipe.

If memory serves it was a Jaguar E Pace hybrid. I think the biggest critisism was that the relatively new multi story had been built without a sprinkler system. It wouldn't have put out the original car as the batteries produce their own oxygen to feed the fire, but would have helped with the...

I support the Fully Charged channel on Youtube. I only watched it because it is presented by Robert LLewellyn of Red Dwarf fame. I'd have an EV tomorrow but for the same reason why i drive an old Ibiza and BMW instead of a new F-Type Jag. I can't afford the one i want. They are all 30k+ and i...

But it's all bollox to the majority of people on here, me included. I need clear spaced letters in inglish to understand
