Hi and welcome! Sounds like you had the better deal! I had a 90 V8 CSW which was the one Landy I regretted selling (and still do!) Don’t forget to post some pics and let us know how you get on with it. There’s lots of help and advice on here.

Hi and welcome. I’d suggest not making a demand to reply on your first post or you’ll not get the best responses. If you’re new to driving and young, you’ll pay a lot for driving a Defender as your first car. I’d suggest getting some experience for a year or two on a smaller cheap car to...

Hi and welcome!

Hi and welcome! Any pics of your Landy? We like pics!

There’s a set on FB marketplace but they’re in the south west so quite a distance from you.

For which fitment? Defender or disco 2? They are available in both.

Welcome back!

Block your Landy in and report the incident to the police.

I had the same with the 2.5 petrol in my old series 3. I stripped and rebuilt the carb which cured it for a bit but ended up fitting a new genuine Webber carb which cured it. I never found out which part was to blame.

Hi and welcome!

My Indy uses the services of a guy near Stroud who does both welding and chassis swaps. His company is called Mac Welding. He does quite a lot of discoveries. The welding on my 90’s chassis was very good.

Hi and welcome.

I’d be getting a new battery. A battery with a two year guarantee which is already four years old is on borrowed time in my experience. You may stretch it to last this winter but for peace of mind, I’d replace it. Mine failed several times until I replaced it with a much bigger capacity one.

I always liked the petrol two and a quarter for the series landies. Have you considered a 2.5 petrol engine? Not cheap now and very sought after but a very good engine.

Isn’t that what you’re paying the garage for?

I had a front chassis section and crossmember from these guys fitted two years ago. The quality was very good.

Hi and welcome!

There are lots around. Don’t buy in haste.

If you buy something already “modified”, beware of it having had a hard life. Better to buy on overall condition and not lots of toys and extras bolted to it. Best to take someone with you who knows these vehicles if you can and look at quite a few to get an idea of what is good and what isn’t.
