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 She's not old...just older |

Found a card in my letterbox saying that they had attempted to deliver mine this morning :thumbsup: Admin note: this post has had its images recovered from a money grabbing photo hosting site and reinstated Steve. Owned numerous Land Rover vehicles of all shapes and sizes over the decades. Current Defender: A non tarts hand-bagged Puma 110 XS USW. [Insert something impressive here such as extensive list of previous Land Rovers or examples of your prestigeous and expensive items, trinkets, houses, bikes, vehicles etc] http://forums.lr4x4.com I used to be Miserable ...but now I'm ecstatic. |

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

as I've been working silly hours lately I haven't driven the Defender for 2 weeks ! The wife has kind of taken over and the kids' friends have been queueing up for spins in it as they think its too cool for school.
But today I'll get a drive to ...... Tesco in Roscommon ! Zipedee Doodah. This is what its come to |

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! Brendan |
