brighouse shed

elephant were insuring 18 year olds last time i looked for daughter till sat in instructors car with her and decided better not to have female snowplough driver in my toy. try the usual meerkat, fat opera singer, thwack in leather jacket sites and use diff home address (granny??) and a reg plate off ebay/autotrader as new buyer that way its not flagged up as you scouting around when you get to statrt talking to them as they will start hiking from the promise very quickly. Not Bitter............

addendum whilst partaking of Merlot aka essential LR lubricant emptied dishwasher so can see common thread developing aside from frozen gonads and truck taking the michael

So happy its not just me, I spent most of Sunday lying under the shed trying to adjust / find the reverse lamp switch on the gear box so the light would come on again. fiddled and swore to no effect gave up when frozen to drive, had some esssential lubrication/de-icer Merlot, went out and pushed manfully on gearstick and light is suddenly fine. Resolved to push like Charles atlas when selecting reverse till temperature rises

having recently had my slave dump clutch fluid in my drive but not enough that i wasn't 20 miles away with dogs on moors before setting off with no clutch can tell you being old enough to have had a 71 mini when i was 17 that no clutch is challenging but you can change gear and get into fifth albeit with white knuckle for a few days later so no not the best plan as useless even i can use a car with no clutch.

i use costco s and never had it freeze even at -12 when younger i worked in a lab and used to mix 10% iso propyl alcohol into washer bottle, never froze in my mighty sierra, so i could always see out the front window as the back end sailed majestically past the front end or pedestrians walked past as my rear wheels spun uselessly on the ice

try looking on your drive when my slave packed up it didn't fill the footwell but dumped it on the drive instead. double de-clutching refers to your knuckles i found when mine gave up and still had to get home.

also think of csi but with lighting in the labs

If my last company is anything to go by taiwan is no longer cheap in either price or quality having suffered a similar inflation rate and social mobility like japan. the goods we saw were as good as the german stuff I sold but more expensive and not as pricey as the japanese. which makes me wonder if VAG bum warmers could be a plan. the ones in my passat work very quickly and i woudl guess are pretty robust also will be fitted to audi, skoda and seat with usual difference in spares prices

suggest both soco's do it and then tell em it's the best force that will hang the barstids by the knackers apprehend the socially deprived young people who have been made this way by the fascist state and only borrowed the vehicle as a cry for help from an insular uncaring society. just off to sharpen the garden shears

Gordon may i suggest cable straight in from mains to three plates one for each phase. sit on all three plates until you can no longer utter the phrase Gay Ford F350

radial and cross ply on the same axle.............NO NO NO NO NO death awaits Try ATS for rangemasters they have them in stock or look at Kuhmo 78s which aren't too far away from the pattern

slightly pedant like : car bodies are made from coil plate steel which in turn is made from continuous cast slabs and slooms (not billet) and has been fro the last thirty years. there is no slag or other detritus in concast products. if you had rolled a short cropped ingot the 'Krap' is generally SiO2 KaSiO4 mixture which are effectively glasses and don't corrode. if you leave a piece of sheet in the rain waht you are seeing is the natural attraction of fine water miniscus onto the very narrow edge allowing beading hence rusting, the surface will dry off via air and natural capillary action. enuf

reasonable suspicion i think is what we are looking at here. derbyshire like west yorkshire (calderdale) have lots of hilly areas with farmers/enthusiasts/nutters with landrovers which go walkabout. so when they see a potential tealeaf behind a wheel they pull it over. However, ever since the SPG and their use of SUS laws obvious crims in stripey shirts, eye masks and swag bags over the shoulder cannot be pulled just cos thats too easy. Instead the police have to be very creative and find just reasons to stop the scum that cannot fall over with human rights legisaltion in court never mind the scumbag had nicked the defender.......minor detail. hence they get really clever and anorak wearing "i became aware that the vehicle had 2010 rear view mirror which for a series 3 was very strange upon stopping the gentleman i found a non standard cup holder and asked him to accompany me to the station at which point scumbag legged it......." good on derbyshire but dont drive thru in a stripey shirt with womans tights on your head cos they will start asking about the carpets weave in your truck

looks like a LR promotion rather than a dealer so there wil be some support to the dealer. At dealer full service rates that's three hours work (at least that's what my local VW dealer charged this week on my passat CC and citroen charged on my old C5 to the lease company) So I would expect the usual £140 all inclusive service figure that most mainstream garages offer to appear via those £12 for screenwash, £75 for oil, £46 brake fluid £52 for headlight bulb (I kid you not) that they all like. As Simon says small print is worth a scan but being cynical reckon on £140 for routine service consumables then any normally worn parts (brake discs and pads high on list) at full list. even at that though i reckon it's not a bad deal for a LR stamp in the book

i looked at some rear seats when i first got my 90 but went off side facing jobs as terrified of internal injuries if god forbid i hit anything. the forward facing are ace but then no space for my springers. so kept middle seat which gets used rarely but has side benefit of elbow boob interaction, as the half century nears every little helps

ahhh one of those posh ones with a radio fitted from day one, i had an extra area for the air con instead.

i would strongly advise you push the radio into position before rebuilding the dash, the earth lead on my jvc unit was about 2 inches short to allow the fuse box mount to be used. pity i had just reassembled the dash. By the way the passenger grab handle is a sod to get back in

make sure your helper knows what they need to do i.e. push pedal to floor when told and hold until told to let up to top before pushing to floor again. not push up and down like a bloody yo yo till your dear father teaches you new words which you need to ask him to repeat as he is somewhere contorting himself like a 1970's paul daniels show star turn in the engine bay with a tube in one hand and a set of stillys in the other

they are all the bloody same, having just changed tyres on daughter's C2, thankfully only 46 a corner, collected 90 from Mot with it's nice freshly welded chassis bits and fresh certificate then one of those quiet words from tester, "your tyres are legal but i wouldn't put money on that being true when you get home, but i've given you advisory" . Was hoping to see out the new year on them looks like a set of Kuhmo's for chrimbo or Mr Visa Bugger

i would ask how vigilant the police are on this certainly round here it seems changing spacings and numbers into letters is obligatory

mine is developing similar tendencies, shipped off for mot today having sorted out clutch master and slave cylinders all else seems good. Hmmm bit of a chassis and rust issue has developed in i reckon four weeks luckily two small patches one at rear of chassis rails, which didn't matter before but now the tow bar is tested as well, you have been warned, one 30mm hole on chassis rails just behind front bumper and then the drivers side outrigger lots of holes. then just to compound it all the power steering pump is wet. luckily tester is gonna steam clean once welding done (i know but i ain't welding a chassis other stuff yes but not a chassis) and said keep an eye on it as he thinks it's the pipes from reservoir. only good result was tester uses a mate of his for all his welding cos cheap and reliable (does it as pocket money instead of doing overtime at work) but it did mean another bus journey home as child and wife gone to work

WRT Costco BFG are owned by Michelin so are available but Costco have to sell the equivalent Michelin if available. But their stock is nearly all road tyres .. ady thanks I'd never heard of them but the tread pattern is not a million miles off and i figured a newer tyre design may be better.

Strangely i like my white wheels with 205/80x16 s and want to keep my truck pretty much as it started. i have Avon Rangers on it but they need changing so I am looking at same again at £92 fitted per corner or some Kuhmo 92s at 75 or some BFG Longtrails at 114 (Costco) I use the 90 for pottering about mainly on roads with the occasional field and obviously in winter all the time when it snows. The Avons have been fine for what i do so am looking for more of the same. I know the ranger is last century tyre design so has anyone any better solutions or should i stick with the Avons?

Range Rover Starlight convertible Java Gren Harold and Maud E Type hearse FF Interceptor in purple metallic Bond Essex Esprit with Skis A shoveit HSR by Blydenstein silver of course Aston Martin Lagonda with fully non functioning dash as originally supplied blue metallic Rover 3500 SD1 Vitesse red Smokies Transam guess Cannon's Lincoln Continental blue metallic Sierra XR4i in red Steed's Broadspeed XJC BRG with Purdie on the back seat hmm guess that dates me

Interesting statement. Am I getting old or do I remember when the DC10 was shown it was stated that this is a concept car and the final design would evolve? This comes across as a defence of a bad design that is not going to be changed as we are already tooled up and making it. we will see as they say hopefully someone in LR is beavering away redesigning the thing, My concern is that concept cars used to be quite challenging even good old BL with design cues for the next ten years but very few finished cars ever looked like the concept. we now seem to get concepts that are pretty much the final car.
