Thankyou Eightpot, sound advice.

Wow, love to know what you get for 12k, may as well buy another Land Rover for that sort of money

Limestone, that's it. Thanks 👍

Prices are better for Land Rovers than they used to be and I've had Mitsubishis, Nissans and even Fords and none of them have compared to a good well maintained Landy. I don't mind spending money on it, if it benefits me and my work, I certainly don't see myself getting rid of it. Yeah, I'm aware I'm not going to be a small job and would probably be cheaper if I did the strip down. But it's used daily for my business and I can't not have it for weeks on end.

Hi Steve, respray a different colour, I'm thinking spray it to look like a stage 1, with an off white (not sure of the name of the paint) on the cab and the rest of the body in Epsom Green preferably in 2k. Hadn't thought about inner wings 🤔 Where in Mid-Suffolk are you?

Bought my 110 HCPU 4 years a go and the guy i purchased it from had given it a fairly poor spray job and now the paint is all peeling off. Had a mate respray a pair of new doors and he did a good job even though the colour matching wasn't quite right but not sure he can cope with a full strip down and respray. From looking at past forum topics and on other forums £4-6K 3 years ago would of seem to be about right, but now as I'm sure your all aware everything is a lot more expensive. Anyone got any idea what an up to date pricing for a full body off (including bulkhead) professional respray would cost? I'm based just outside of Ipswich in Suffolk if anyone can recommend a good bodyshop also?

Made the decision to swap my wings for tubular ones and going with the “standard” shape versions. Seen lots of finished pictures of the Whitbread and North Offroad standard wings fitted to trucks but none of the P&P standard ones. Contacted Kim at P&P for pictures but they only have ones off the vehicle or part way through fitting. I’ve checked through loads of the build threads on here but so far other than a brief mention, no photos. Has anyone fitted these and got pictures of the finished job?

Thanks Mike. Hope your able to get out and enjoy that incredible machine.

Thankyou for sharing, I bet she’s a beast. For the front set up how do you go about with the links not hitting sump or the manifolds?

Both ends, nice! I’d like to see that.

Your right, once you get through to the checkout no tax is added. On a separate note have you any experience with a duel triangulated 4 link system?

US Taxes i.e like our VAT. Thanks I’ll take a look.

Did you reclaim the US taxes?

Great video. Very interesting. Definitely got me thinking. He used some seriously heavy duty stuff on that discovery. It’ll be a beast. Checked out Barnes 4x4 website. Shame we don’t have anyone in the UK like that. I think the import costs would make it unrealistic. Hell maybe having closer links with the US would be good but that’s probably a topic for another forum topic!
