  1. I cant believe chard is so much bearing in mind thes bugger all around chard and nothing to do.
  2. Oh , not sure i knew about alot of the of the info when the first freelanders were about but he dropped dead when I was 17 , so that was 1999 I knew about issues with tdv8, v6, and stuff about the freelander one, td5 engines and weird stuff like that . I could walk into any garage , mention his name and get a job within 5 mins . Not sure id ever touch newer lr stuff now ..
  3. My grandfather, sold the tech to volvo from landrover so they could make their 4x4 s 🤣 believe it or not , and also had close ties with Honda and there crvs
  4. Whats it weighs?
  5. Permanent marker line instead
  6. Ex bosses drove one said itvwas quite a good drofe one, that got thr different lock in?
  7. Skoda yetty 4x4?
  8. Not seen the berlingo van, derived thing but I guess its like the freelander all electronics and tech stuff like that , Jimnys are ok , buy ive not put hers to the test of towing , plus also new they dont do 4 seater or auto . And hers is a bit cramped also 1.3 engine! I know what u mean about things being too long like the Japanese crew cab pickups not great for double gates , What about turning your defender into a station wagon? If u can get bits
  9. Partners owned ,had one as a paramedic for off road events you wouldn't have one as a paramedic if they were shite. Im not bickering, or arguing ,u asked someone for advice thats it . And when you see whats out there currently not ideal really
  10. New defender cant make its mind up whether its a freelander ,range rover or discovery, its built in the check Republic, parts will be expensive, axel articulation is shit, and a video online shows it being pissed on offroad by a dusta, Its not if its got a small engine or not , its how's its geared, and if it was good enough for civil engineering in Ireland its good enough for anyone and u could by two for the cost of that crappy defender. And yes I meant a 110 in length not a 90 .
  11. Im assuming the brake away cable wasn't attached or was attached in the wrong place ,it was a shit situation, poorly maintained trailer that once was a wooden horse trailer cut down, from memory it was a quite and old bloke thst caused it
  12. A horrific accident happend local to me a long time ago, I cant remember if the ball came off or the hitch on the trailer, long and short of it a woman got killed after the trailer became detached from vehicle , thankfully the toddler she was pushing was ok. Shit situation
  13. I was going yo suggest that but I thought you'd mock me or be a mong to me .
  14. Discovery is just as long as a defender or a freelander . Think you'll struggle on 4x4s Im in a similar situation, id be looking at a dacia duster 4x4, and apparently great off road - they beat the shitty new defender!
  15. Wouldn't want to bicker it in court
  16. And discharging legal duty if something goes wrong
  17. Hi all, been asked to price the following - To install whips, with cane and spiral guard per metre . Ive gone through the net and have seen a wild variety of prices on a metre , im trying to work out the price with all materials supplied . Other thing im stuck on is if it's on a meterage is it just the case that if 2 men are planting its twice as many metres covered that way or is it per man? Going is good , with good vehicular acess, not really a big job , and the is fencing (post and rail) already installed. Thanks
  18. Adrain flux are theifing hunts, happy to say thst after dealings with them
  19. If your getting things from the states , most if not all couriers charge tax if you haven't paid it in thst state, what seems cheap isn't cheap, In future your better off buying through eBay, its calculated and paid at point of purchase. It can be a minefield
  20. Try buttons, they'd know
  21. Have a look on woodlouse online or alternatively Google green wood workers, coppicers near me....should be quite a few near you
  22. Ypu can always talk to entec, timberwolf tech team and they will help you out , with drawings etc
  23. Arrh , lucky I still have a heavy horse then !🤣
  24. If net zero keeps on the way it does we might be back to horse +cart and using bow saws up trees
