I had a miserable time. Why anyone who enjoys driving would ever choose to remain in the UK is beyond me. More cars battled in the 50 miles between Dover and London than the 1000km between the Alps and Calais. Big Cry Monsieur Le Grenadier

I must admit I cannot wait to get back home to the heat and the sunshine and the beautiful lavender fields now in full bloom. Here it's cold, grey, miserable, run down and so bloody depressing. No wonder everyone is so miserable and unhappy with their lives.

No work on the defender as it's been far too busy working

The 135 is my dads. I just picked it up from the mechanics. Just had new head gasket, liners, crank grind and oil pump.

Escort Cosworth is mine. Taking it to paint shop.

Good old Ifor LM146! How do you get on with the ramps in the holder, I've just bought one and find those tags that spring down to stop the ramps falling out a right PITA when trying to get the ramp out! Pete

Thanks for the reply. Thumbs Up
It just looks "right" somehow on the back of the Defender.
