Simon, Just be happy with the fact that your running cost with a Freelander probably are a fair bit lower ! You've bought yourself some time to see how reliable the D3 is over a period of time........... Edwin.

Hi Bowy, Your trailer is exactly what I have in mind, want to sell ??? From what I see in the pictures, you're pretty good in welding ! I might just give you a call/email in the near future to hear all about that project. Cheers, Edwin PS did you make good use for the Discovery rim you bought from me earlier this year....?

True ! guess a sankey is a bit of a "tub" too !! A sankey would be my second choice....

For a few years now I have this idea: I’d like to turn the rear tub of a 90 (or 110) into a trailer. Now I know this isn’t new and in fact I’ve seen a few at some of the LR-shows. Painted in the car’s colour it just looks great I think ! The one thing I’m not sure about is that chunky chassis. It’s very solid of course but the trailers I have seen so far all had the towing beams welded straight on to the cut-of chassis and made it all look a bit…lumpy and “unfinished†Has anyone ever done this conversion before ? How difficult is it and are there any good alternatives for the trailers chassis and axle ? Would like to hear your idea’s, thought’s etc. etc. ! Thanks, Edwin

Very nice job Neil !! Having seen your pictures, I might just do this myself.... Edwin

Sounds very promising ! Think we might just spend a day enjoying all that beauty (after I bought all my Land Rover goodies of course..) Thanks for the info !! Cheers, Edwin

Hi Ben, Any idea what the scenery is like around Malvern ? any good for a day of sightseeing in case my girlfriend gets bored with 3 days of "only" land Rovers spares... Minivin, hope you will make it !!

Hi all, I’m new to this forum, used to pop round the “old place†from time to time but it’s a bit quiet over there at the moment so…… Talking about “over thereâ€, is anyone going to the Malvern show at the end of this month ? Me and my girl friend went to Billing this year and I used to go to Peterborough for the last 3 years. Wonder if this show is going to match the Billing atmosphere………naaaah can’t be, can it ?? Anyway, I’m bored stiff here at work so please talk to me before I fall a sleep !! Edwin.
