| New toy arrived, now down to work. | 18 Mar 2007 13:12 GMT | 2 |
After a 3 year stint with a disco 2, I have had enough of leaking sun roofs, iffy ABS which more often than not has the three lights on the dash. Must admit that the chipper TD5 is fun though. So yesterday my new toy arrived in the shape of a 110 CSW, with galvanised

| Global Warming and CO2 | 18 Mar 2007 09:13 GMT | 49 |
(Highly relevant to anti 4x4 lobby !!!) Interesting documentry on channel 4 tonight about global warming. It seems that there is very strong evidence that although CO2 levels historically have been high when the earth warms up, the level of CO2

| No wonder Larry wasn't starting right! | 17 Mar 2007 23:54 GMT | 1 |
FFS!! Some tight twat had put a 60Ah battery on it & given the size of the LR original at 110Ah, no f.cking wonder really. It was half the bleedin' size & nearly half the Ah rating. The thing weighs 30kg!! That is one heavy battery. TD5's need a good one too. Oh well, £92 - hope

A pal at work (the one who catalysed me in to LR ownership) has a 200TDI disco that was suffering from tight steering last weekend when I saw him and drove it. I tried the machine in a car park and when I was steering on full lock and released the steering wheel it straightened ...

I am in Aisa (outside EU) and I need half-doors for my 110 station station wagon as well as a rear tailgate. Anyone know where I can get these doors. I'm assuming that series III doors will fit.

| Series 11a overheating | 17 Mar 2007 10:39 GMT | 14 |
It's midsummer here, air temps around 38°C daytime. I use my ancient series 2.25 for spraying a bit, which means trundling round the paddocks in 1st low while I murder the weeds using a pump driven by the rear PTO. Rad temp is controlled by the original engine fan, assisted by a ...

| 110 Defender gutter | 16 Mar 2007 22:20 GMT | 3 |
Today it rained. I climbed into the drivers seat and a mini copy of Niagara (that's N, not V) poured water all over my right leg as it headed for the driver's floor. I don't remember this happening on my old 110, but on both sides of this

| Where is my engine oil going? | 16 Mar 2007 11:23 GMT | 22 |
My 130K 2.5TD has for the past few weeks started needing its engine oil topping up much more often than normal. It still runs fine, no black smoke, even on start up and feels as strong as even. I'd noticed that the engine block around the base of the rocker cover

Just spent about 2 hours of mixed daylight and darkness trying to see why Edward II is running like a bag of shite, and failed. current theory is that the distributor is shagged, causing the timing and/or the points gap to arse around enough to put the fire out. I don't think

I've been over to have a look at a series 2A belonging to a local scout group tonight. Have fixed a few things and spent 30 minutes drving it round a field, but still the clutch isnt behaving as it should -

| OT+ Camcorders with Pass-through | 15 Mar 2007 18:31 GMT | 7 |
Sorry to post this here, but maybe someone can help out. I'm trying to find which camcorders will take analogue video and audio in and squirt them out via firewire to be turned into avi or mpeg files on a PC.
