Did my rear ARB...changed them to SuperPro. Seems better in the corners. Ran out of time to do the fronts
Changed the expansion tank
Added some Dr Tranny
Fitted some mudflaps...
Discovery 1 type, complete with brackets and bolts. 10 minutes to fit but haven't made my mind up if I like them or will go for 90 / series flaps. Last hole in the bracket I'll put a self tapper in (rush to get the mutt to the vet!!) Beauty of these is no trimming required.
Oh yeah. Found I have rusty nuts so that will be for next weekSeries 2a V8 killed it
Series 3 ex coastguard
110 HiCap
110 rebuilt from pickup to 5 seated hardtop...got that one in a feature of LRO!!!
Disco 300tdi. White
Disco 300tdi. Iceland and back. What a trip and no frozen drumsticks!
P38. Loved that car. Still miss it.
MGZS 180 major smiles for miles. Gone.
D3...LED bulbs in and out. EGR blanked. Geoff flushed and serviced
MG TF - bought for SWMBO. She doesn't like it. Shame. To sell or not to sell.
Triumph Thunderbird 1600 - awesome

Returned from Scotland. 1200 miles no problem, lie-o-meter indicated that I was getting 30 mpg. Happy with that.
Was hoping for Disco Mike to do some upgrades whilst there but due to a conversation along the lines of 'over my dead body' with SWMBO (tempting) wasn't allowed
On the plus side her ladyship did comment on how nice the D3 drove Could this be a break through???
So had this all week...
Went and saw this...
And had a cup of tea with these...
