Yep, I've got one, just waiting for the paintwork to be sorted out and then I'll swap them all. I was going to ask you actually - when you did yours how did you get at the bolts to the body on the bottom back door hinge? Do you have to take the OSR wheel off to get the access panel out of the arch? Or can you do it without? Also, did you manage to do the front door hinges without taking the cards off? Cheers.  |

I managed to wedge the spanner onto the hinge nuts without having to touch the door cards, it'll need two people for the rear door hinges the lower two just put your arm up the back of the wheel arch to find the nuts the middle two are accessed via the rear speakers 2.4 90 XS

Been away for the weekend (not in the Landy) and got back to find half a tank of less of diesel.
I'll hide my keys better next time. |

I took advantage of the good weather and drove up to Kinlochleven for a 2 day hillwalking trip with ma dug yesterday, cracking high level camp and was pleased to see my landie was still intact when I returned to it this morning. Whilst driving up through Glencoe I was surprised to see two 101 Forward Control Vehicles coming towards me, both had dutch plates and both waved
 As I reached the top of Glencoe I saw an old series 2 towing a caravan also with dutch plates, they waved aswell I passed another couple before reaching the snack van at Rannoch Moor viewpoint where I was stopping for breakfast and to my delight I saw these.......

There is about 30 vehicles in total.........look out for them and give them a wave.

spent Saturday and Sunday morning exploring Salisbury planes with LandyTown members. Camped in Tilshed, good fun, some real characters and lots and lots of dust. (before you ask, I forgot my camera
 ) but will be some on landytown forum.
Took the new 90, never seen the planes so dry and dusty, need to check air filter  |

Did the ****s break in/fishing rod your keys and drain half your tank? Unbelievable 
Is that an Optimist under wraps? |

not an Opi, looks a bit like a Laser - Radial maybe, or a Topper?

Shooed away the flaming magpies that keep pecking the 110s wing mirrors leaving scuzzy marks behind.
They're too quick to shoot unfortunately. I get blackbirds pecking the BM too... Defender 110XS SW gone... now VW California 180 4 Motion. |

On the theme of boats, I hooked my "tender trailer" up to see if it was level on the new tow bar. The adjustable one's seem to go lower to level the trailer or caravan etc better....

Just picked up a little lock, useless but will deter the opportunist (if I was an opportunist I would carry bolt cutters, sliding hammers, etc around
 )
