Drove from Norwich to Leicester and back today. First real longish drive. I was comfortable with no back ache at all.
Wifey was quite surprised as well! 2008 110 XS CSW Stornoway Grey |

Fitted Manteca RAI, replaced screws on KBX air intakes with longer ones that fit with CP (thanks to Stig Fasteners) and bolted maglite clamps to the front face of the cubbyhole box. Now to get the spotlights wired up ...

Went to Stow Maries World War I Aerodrome in Essex to see a load of varied sports cars, some small planes and the beginnings of the restoration of this amazing former Royal Flying Corps station. My 3 year old tried out a motorbike too and loved it:

Fitted electronic noise suppressor to my positive power lead for my CB. Alternator whine gone, but still a little crackling.

"Zagged" the wheels
 Whats the point  Never done it to any other car I have owned - It's the Defender effect 
Also the Mobile Storage Systems Chest arrived...
It won't fit flat under the window moulding on an XS so Irene at MSS suggested I put it this way up as she has done on her Puma. It now also gives the option to cut a section of the back off to give half as much room again going back under the window lip into the inside of the rear panel (would need protecting!). I will probably fit it as it is for now, can always cut through in the future if I need more space  Nice bit of kit by the way...

Took mine in today for the Q068, P022 and LTB00110 actions to be carried out.
Unfortunately the LTB00110 (replace sump) service campaign closed last year so now you have to pay for parts and labour - total for a new sump to be supplied and fitted, together with an oil and filter change was a staggering £320 !  |

Had to do a double take as it looks like you fitted a kitchen wall unit on the outside that covers the nearside rear window too. Slighly disappointed that had you had done this you'd have filled it with Zagging products and not booze ! Methinks a new photo opportunity.... The Zag Cocktail cabinet mod... along with large Ice chest below for chilling the beers :thumbsup: Admin note: this post has had its images recovered from a money grabbing photo hosting site and reinstated Jon - 110 td5 [sold]. Currently Defenderless. |

Drove to Brizzle this morning to collect son and his gf from uni along with a vast amount of stuff
All fitted in ok and then a drive back home. Passed a a few Defenders including a black 110 with a galv roofrack on the M4 that looked similar to SEB's. Going out in to a local restaurant for dinner tonight  John

 Yes it's a bit tight in the garage  I have to clamber out of the rear door to get out
Good idea about keeping booze in the car - anything to get it away from the wife  |
