  1. They look fab. Where do you get your paint from ? I bought a small pot, but it was pretty expensive .. and I’ve a quick release Woden do to at some point.
  2. One of the issues of a 200tdi seems to escalating prices as they become scarcer - which also unfortunately means they are all older and harder to find a good one. They are the king of Land Rover engines though. 😋
  3. This one was my Dad’s - which needed some tlc too .. looks patchy in the photo - but the paint looks fine in real life 🤷🏻‍♂️
  4. Here’s my £10 record No.3 with new jaws, spring and whatnot .. all cleaned and painted.
  5. I would think a big portion of Sid’s weight will be unsprung weight? So spring rate may be a bit lighter than the weigh bridge would suggest.
  6. I think the roamer drives can be used in every gear - and if it’s only for heading back and the odd injection of pace it might work? Better tyres with low pressures, sorted diff locks, he’d have a crawler 😀
  7. I’ve seen something similar happen quite a bit. Where on a 90” the front wheels haven’t cleared an obstacle before the back wheels are hitting it - whereas on a 110 the back wheels can drive the front over the obstacles and then they have the front on good ground to help pull the back over. Swings and roundabouts in the end I’m sure.
  8. Photos don’t do it justice do they? I was a bit dumb struck !
  9. I’m sure it’s just the perspective- but that tent looks tiny !
  10. I just met up with Stephen, grandson, and Sid …. You guys at 7S are in for a treat. The pictures don’t do it justice. It’s awesome.
  11. I missed this had been shared and posted it in the video forum … I thought the level of engineering was surprising and very interesting.
  12. I love this !!! Congratulations !!
  13. Mine would always start - so if yours is being immobilised it sounds like something different. Is it a Td5 Defender ?
  14. Super helpful all. all sorted now 👍🏻
  15. Do you mean you’d like a smaller steering wheel ? If so - I think it’s literally just make sure you get the right spline count for your vehicle (36 or 48) and then pick one you like from somewhere like exmoor trim. Ralph is right though - the standard wheel does work fine for off road driving.
  16. If anyone wants a more powerful winch … https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1710509636036651/?
  17. Those callipers look lovely 😊 Out of curiosity- I presume they have a recessed o ring either side of the spacer plate?
  18. I think I have one of those solenoid packs - happy to send it to you if I can find it and you can use it ?
