Very much like that Adrenalin lock. Makes my clutch claw look a bit waif like!

Today I've been mostly....cleaning the 90. It got a bit messed up at the weekend so time to get her clean again. Also been doing a spot of shopping for her from Bilt Hamber...fantastic anti-rust and winter rust prevention products. I swear by them.

Cheers Thumbs Up She's not old...just older

Fitted my Adrenalin pedal lock which arrived this afternoon, thanks for sorting the deal Zag and James for sending so quickly Thumbs Up

Starting making some templates up for some metal work for next weekends project - it was originally this weekends project but rain stopped play and I had to do some decorating instead Big Cry

Also dragged the sewing machine out of storage as this will also be needed to complete everything.

Pictures will be taken once completed, the only clue is there is a lot of HD tube involved Thumbs Up

Daft question, but don't any of you fill up on the "Lorry forecourt"?

Usually there is a pin on the pump, so you don't have to hold the trigger. The flow rate is a lot faster than a normal pump too. I usually do this, if it's quiet.

Just a thought Thumbs Up


I carry a pin to put through the trigger guard using the holes from which they removed the original pin. The only trouble is that you will sometimes get the attendant/cashier yelling at you (over the tannoy if you're really lucky) alleging that it is illegal, which of course it isn't on a diesel pump (although I think it is on a petrol pump).

I will quite often use the HGV pump, but as stated before there are hassles associated with this. It is wonderfully quick, and provided that you are careful there will be no problems.

I do wish the 110 had a larger tank, though. I get 400 miles between fill-ups on the Defender, and 500 on the Disco2 with its larger tank. It is surprising what a difference the extra 100 miles range makes.

You could fit a wing tank or/and replacement wing tank 120 litres or about 170 litres in total. The only snag with those is it really hits the wallet when you do come to fill up! £170+ does tend to make the eyes water a bit!
