Car Forum / Land Rover Cars / November 2005New Bloke on the Block
Hello thought I would introduce myself, My name is Brendan and I live in Tonbridge in Kent, I currently own a 1987 Range Rover 3.5 v8, which I have owned sine may this year, it came armed with a shed full of spare(good job too), from someone who told me to look after it as it was well looked after, !yeah right! I bought a welder from eBay, completely replaced the pass floor pan but still needs outer sills both sides, rear floor d/s, I have put 4 newish a/t tyres on it, it's got an oil leak,p/a/s leek but it doesn't matter as I sort of new what needed doing but not to that extent, but any way that is me and my car(the beast), so I might be asking for advice and hopefully I can lend my fun and experience with my car to others Cheers Bren ...and Brendan spake unto the tribes of Usenet, saying... > Hello thought I would introduce myself, > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Cheers Bren Hi Bren Welcome to the group. You'll find a lot of help on here, and some nice people - some with great expertise and a lot of valuable experience, some less so but interesting all the same. It's about the most even-tempered group I read, with a high signal-to-noise ratio. Look out for the initiation ceremony, involving a blindfold, a goat, and a pint of EP90.

Yes, delivered from Goats'R'Us yesterday. Not as pretty as the last one, but you can't have everything. > You forgot the bit about the barbed wire nipple-clamps Shhhhhhhhhhhhh! Idiot! > and the > counselling sessions every 4th Thursday... Ah yes. Indeed. Personally, I prefer being in a cold wet field in October with a few Landy nutters, a couple of 101s and a barbecue but, as I say, you can't have everything.

That's not what I said. I actually prefer it hot and dry (the weather, that is), but basically Landrovering along with like-minded Landroverers is better than counselling sessions every 4th Thursday, WHATEVER THE B*STARD WEATHER. Mother, you know exactly what I mean, you know you do. And Mark seems a fine photographer, but his pictures tend to make my eyes water.
