  1. from what your saying your use is the same as mine(though mine is my daily driver as well ) in which case i would say 100" is easyer to live with day to day trust me i know . it's less harsh on props and running gear plus slightly more storage etc. mike
  2. it's purely down to personal preferance mines 100" and a friend (perv) is 88". what use are you intending as that makes a big differance mike
  3. sweet vid is all i can say mike
  4. it was definatly an interesting site like nige says a fair bit of panel damage and that was just the marshals. most i spoke to seemed to enjoy it and the farmer seemed happy so hopefully will be able to go back in the future watch this space . any way many thanks to those that marshaled for us even managed to leave the site at a resonable time which is very rare indeed.
  5. just a thought but could you graft part of the bhd and the centre tunnel section of the disco shell (not normally rusty) into the middle of the freelander shell as this would give you all the correct clearance you need. it would need some thought on the dash etc though mike
  6. somebody else on here was interested in me making a complete fibreglass tunnel to suit the auto box if enough people want them and i can get some pics of whats required then i'll make some up if thats any help mike
  7. i'm sorry you don't agree with the seat belt rule but quite frankly it saves more lives than it ends and as i'm one of the people that gets to help pick brains up before the ambulance arrives tough mike
  8. Take this as a formal wrist slapping , if i catch people without seat belts on trust me they know about it . mike
  9. husky female voice of coarse, dam! did i say that out loud i mean DVDs please mike
  10. as will said it's a lots easyer to for funky shapes with fibreglass and filler sticks better than on metal i may be able to asist in the bodywork if you want by all means give me a shout if you want help mike
  11. that picture must have been taken on the first stage as all the wings are intact and mouse still looks clean mike
  12. see i told you someone on here would know if i don't see you before have a good trip mike and becky
  13. congrats jez kim and the rest of the team was so pleased to be a small part of what has to be the best offroad team in the UK keep up the good work mike
  14. when this first happened to me i just cut them back a bit and re soildered them and then when building the tomcat cut them out completely as early discos didn't have them or fuses at all. if your going fuses i would look at a 300tdi wiring diagram as they use fuses so you can work out what size fuses you need iirc at least one is 100 amp although your alternator is only 65amps i think mike
  15. sika 512 is UV safe but better for sealing sika 291 is an adesive/sealant and will do just about any thing you want on a landrover plus you can paint over it. it's the one i use mike
  16. on my tomcat (200tdi) as the rad is in the back i had the same problem so i looped a copper pipe around at the front behind the grill. at the last MOT the tester could not get the oil hot enough to do the emmisions test so i guess i've got enough cooling. mike
  17. slightly off what your asking for but might be helpful when clear plastic(any type) gets scratched use some black colour match type polish on it you'll be suprised, what you thought was so far gone as to be useless can be retrevied to useable again. mike
  18. if it's any help my other half sorces all the shire club merchandise she can get just about any clothing. embrodered can be multi colour screen printed is only single colour with the company we use(we have got another company that can do multi colour screen printing) the quality is A1 there quick and no min order. if you want us to sort something just pm me mike
  19. not to pee on fireworks but what about cobra/westfield kit cars they both exit buy drivers/passinger door area and iirc they pass SVA and MOT's mike
  20. a new bonnet from tomcat is £170.38 plus postage according to there website it would cost more than that for me to make a mould and a bonnet mike
  21. thats kind of what i thought you would have to do good effort looks cracking mike
  22. did you have wheel arches on it for the SVA as i had to when i took a buggie in a few years ago just wondering mike
