Saturday or sunday will be refitting led's and order black chequerplate side sills, got the wingtops of the 90
should get them in 10 days
Did 100kms yesterday and noticed something weird. When shifting up after the clutch is in rpm would lower then hover at a point for 2.5 seconds before dropping again  So I tried shifting through each gear at just under 3k and it would go down to 2k for every gear change. If the clutch is let out while the rpm is hovering a loud thunk comes along with a feeling something just fell out the bottom  but if I accelerate a little bit to match the rpm when its hovering I got the smoothest gear change in my life probably just like an auto  from my experience with the 90 when something feels that good its usually a warning before something goes am I being paranoid are the 2.2's meant to do that my 90 had a heavy duty clutch in so don't know if the 2.4's did that either 2012 Fuji White 110 Flattened |

Thanks by next week should have everything to finish the look I'm going for. Really want to see how the 110 does in the desert but don't know if I should wait for the first 1k service or just go and hit the dunes
It does get cold, Lowest point this year was -13`C with high humidity and stonrger winds. But the dealership just puts in a "hot climate pack" which is ac as standard but a heater you'll need to order yourself. But I found the ac heater to work well enough. Once the engine heats up it starts to feel like an oven 2012 Fuji White 110 Flattened |

Almost all vehicles here get checked over and change some oilks and filter at 1k before the normal service procedures. LR claim to change all oils at 1K and complete check of the whole vehicle including checking the chassis for any damage don't know what they think we do with their vehicles. Somehow I don't trust their workmanship as they didn't notice the t-box leaking in my 90 till it disintegrated and became undriveable. They claimed it was assembled incorrectly when it was sent to an independant to replace the gearbox but that was 6 months before it broke down  so don't think they'll notice if it actually has a chassis or not 2012 Fuji White 110 Flattened |

Excellent looking machine. Surprising how the black wheel arches improve the look no end.
