Treated my 110 to a thorough wash and a good coat of Meguiars NXT wax and spent a couple of hours cleaning the underside for our visit to Zagato next weekend.

Winch still works but not been used yet. Wretched Goodwinch bars over the drum rusted from underneath, the cheap Chinese chrome has flaked off & now the bars drip rusty water on the steel cable, be worse if I had bought GW's pretty blue rope! Can you get stainless replacements? I was disappointed that a supposedly quality firm like GW would not realise the poor quality of Chinese bling & change it for more durable practical longevity.


what did David have to say about it? Cheers

My FiL made me three support bars up for my GW and they do look nice Smile
Mine too started flaking hence the new bars. 1999 Defender TD5 110

Nice day today so took the boys up to the dams at Rhayader and it seemed to be rude not to do some of the easy lanes. We did feel a little sorry for the either squaddies or TA that must have been on a solo excercise to get back to a rendezvous at Claerwen Dam, they were just appearing from all directions when we were there and we passed one bloke that looked allmost beat when we were making our way along the lane that is next to Claerwen Reservoir. Brew up and fry up at the little quarry, an hour or so chilling out by the water then up to the mountain road and it seemed impolite not to take the greenlane down into Rhayader

Congrats Waldo! How did you find it? Did you do a training course beforehand? Keep thinking about doing mine, but haven't got round to it. Been driving tractors and trailers since I was a kid (as have many on here) so pretty familiar with the principals and practice, just don't have the ticket! It would be handy to have it every now and then. 2005 Td5 | 90 Station Wagon | Tonga Green
