Thoughts and musings on the new defender
Happyoldgit replied to Jamie_grieve's topic in New Defender Forum (2020 onwards)
I am probably in the minority as I found it an enjoyable and somewhat tongue in cheek in places piece. I sympathise with some of his views. -
I’ve owned several of all of them but views on which is best are very subjective. As a first car your main concern is going to be obtaining suitable insurance to cover all your circumstances. Bear in mind that all changes of the vehicle from standard should be declared to the insurers or brokers.

Phone trouble post Samsung/Android update??
Happyoldgit replied to Blanco's topic in International Forum
I had a Doogee S96 pro and it served me well despite my rough handling. Unfortunately it bricked for no apparent reason, fortunately it happened just days before the warranty expired so it was exchanged for a Nokia Android. That one was fine up until an update which proved to be incompatible with my truck )can’t recall specifics). I got fed up trying to sort it so my wife now has that phone, I went back to an IPhone whose CarPlay works well in the vehicle. -
Serviced one of my chainsaws on Saturday. Filled the fuel and oil tanks, ran it and tested it on a few bits of stuff around the ponds. All good. Drained the unused oil back into the 5 litre container of Stihl synthetic chain oil. Drained the virtually full fuel tank - but overlooked the fact the funnel was still in the oil can. S*d it.

I've got those on mine👍 -
Unless you have access yourself it's worth a drink to your local garage bod or MoT place to get them properly set up on a beam setter.

Agreed.

I'm so sorry to read that, it's a horrible thing to loose a pal like that. I lost my 7 y/o Springer to the same thing back in March.
