  1. See if you can find a part number for the other side that will allow you to narrow in what you're looking for.
  2. So I'm not aware of any website that has published part numbers for the newer land rovers i.e. the ones that don't fall into the "classic" category. But I've found a quirky way into the Jaguar Land Rover Classic parts website. From what I've seen you cant access any new LR vehicles through the normal classic parts website, but if you have any part number for the vehicle you're looking for, you just pop the number into google and one of the first hits will be from the Land Rover Classic parts website - but for a non classic vehicle If you do a search to find a generic part number for the vehicle you're looking for e.g. 2020 Discovery sport I looked for a bumper on ebay and got this part number LR128932 you then get this Link Towing System - Towing Valance, 5 Seat or 5+2 Seat without Spare Wheel AWD, 20MY onwards | Jaguar Land Rover Classic Parts Now depending on which vehicle you're looking at you either scroll to the bottom and click the vehicle type OR If you scroll to the top of the page and click the "Back" you can get back to the top of the parts index for the vehicle. Search Genuine Land Rover Discovery Sport 2015 > (l550) Parts | Jaguar Land Rover Classic Parts another example is L461 Range Rover sport 2023 Search Genuine Land Rover New Range Rover Sport 2023 > (l461) Parts | Jaguar Land Rover Classic Parts

  4. Just a recommendation for central ish Scotland, I'm not related or connected with the supplier, just had a good experience. https://www.stainless-creations.co.uk/ Really nice customer contact, booked the vehicle in (2 week wait) and had a full exhaust made and installed within a day. These guys don't just make new, they will repair or just change sections of a damaged exhaust, amongst other machanic-ing.
  5. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/315275808201 I quite like the look of this...
  6. Hi folks, D2 Td5 - I've got a pin hole in one of the steel pipes that sits below the fan/radiator, I've ordered a new part but I want to do a repair as I'll change the pipe out when I do the chassis later in the year, initial thoughts were to to use an appoxy with some kind of patch material, Dad recommended some kind of tin skin patch outer held by jubilee clips, especially as araldite type material get soft ~80 degrees. Anyone got any recommendations/advice, needs to be good to hold some pressure.
  7. In around 2002 LR changed the door locks from i think it is 8 pin locks to 14 pin locks, i.e. they made the door lock barrels longer to accommodate the same key that was used in the ignition lock, which made the door barrels a little more resistant to breaking and entering... so obviously the alloy handles are built for the later spec locks. I've had a good look about and cant find any individual part numbers for the bits you need, Exmore obviously assume you're already upgrading a later style door lock so you can just swap these parts over, I think you might have to bite the bullet and order some standard (late type) door handles, to use the parts from them, you could also pop a "wanted" add in the forum to see if anyone had any old ones going.
  8. hmmm they salt the roads like they salt the fish and chips up here. As interesting as my wee 3 year break living in Englanshire was, my 90 thanked me more, they don't salt half as much.
  9. Has this truck been in the sea? Or is it a common issue?
  10. The price of older disco's seems to be creeping up, that is the first 200tdi first series. When I bought my Romulus facelift 300tdi finding one with a decent MOT and on the road wasn't so easy, there seems to be few on the road these days, most 300tdi's I could fine where modified in some way or another with prices from 1500 - 3000+ dependent on the kit they had on. I finally found a GS (basic) spec unmolested for 2k, with a dubious 11 months MOT. Off the road trucks seem to bottom out at 500 which equated to getting an engine and gearbox, but I only got that price from asking about and visiting a few garages with old trucks sat outside them. so "in my opinion" any truck with an MOT its going to be 1000+ dependent on how rough it is. MOT less... down to 500 dependant on what needs done to get it back on the road, if it needs a stack of welding then its as good as the engine and gearbox, but if it doesn't need welded then that makes it more valuable as its much easier to get it back on the road.
  11. I ran my 200tdi on OAT for quite a few years, but wasn't all that convinced with it, especially after doing the head gasket a few times in relative succession I was gobsmacked to see how the blank water holes had corroded, so I swapped back to Glycol although I've not had the head off to see if its any better, I feel I've had super rock solid coolant temps even when I seriously maxed out when towing some heavy stuff up some big hills. 200tdi would have been spec'd with Glycol from the begging, and td5's would have been OAT - I'd say stick to the closest you can for what the engine was initially designed for.
  12. Why make new when you can save a heap of cash just copying what someone had done already.
  13. Lovely bit of work, the gate will look amazing.👍
  14. I had it in my head that there was a difference between the swivel ball from raliko to roller bearing type... it could be totally dreamed up mind, I dont have a later one to hand to compare.
