Even though we all like to keep our motors up together it's such a nice feeling that those in authority agree that they are roadworthy as well
 Mine passed last Friday with me not doing anything to it, nice to know it's safe( well the moment it was on the ramp anyway  ) |

Just went to the beach with the kids - the Landy was shaking in the wind! About a force 9-10, HUGE waves, pretty spectacular.
Had coffee and cakes in the back with the kids - cosy! Took some lame pics if anyone is interested. Defender 110XS SW gone... now VW California 180 4 Motion. |

Okay - they are even worse than I thought! I blame the camera (HTC Desire S!)

At last! I finally belong on here!
Today, I stood and looked at it, and waited for the snow.*** As an interloper from the D3 forum (ages ago and I can't remember why...  ) and after 29 years without a personal Series/Defender torture chamber, I am back. Back to the careful right elbow movements on steering, keeping thumbs out of steering wheel spokes, selective right foot/left foot warming (nearly wrote HEATing) etc etc BUT
• it's fun • it's nostalgic • it's Force Majeure on the road (with the bumper embellishment), and • it reminds me how smo-o-o-o-oth the D3 is , on a ageing backside  , when I swap back
It's 1995, 120k miles, proper accelerator linkage. And mine. Two questions... 1. Where's the snow? 2. Anyone come across an "All Car Equip" alarm? Google hasn't There are 2 ultrasonic sensors and a mystery key - no other clues...
Andrew Carefully going everywhere |

Cheers, VeeTee,
You worked a charm - Google DID indeed, second time around, but no website for 'em. Looks like I will have to try 19th century technology and telephone them  Carefully going everywhere |

Couldn't have put it better. Can't wait for my two 5-year-old grandsons to see it.... We have superb empathy - may be something to do with mental age  Carefully going everywhere |

Just got to the yard and logged in with a brew and I see the forum has been hacked... really feel for who ever has to go through and delete that crap! How come they can bypass the security?
