Thought I should really update this ! Not done much to the Landy really, just a few electrical bits and bobs. It developed a few sudden problems, so they're being fixed now. Sound proofing is the next job, and then a new head lining

I do like the landyglass windows, suits the grey, what have you done with the inside? Did you have it all painted to match? Looks really good

That's some serious rust , are you sure it was not next to the titanic . That was the sort of car you did not park next to .
Just in case it was contagious 
James Cameron may want to do a film on it Very nice now though Last edited by Cakey on 23rd Mar 2013 5:34pm. Edited 1 time in total |

Cheers Cakey
It was worse than I thought it was when I bought it! I got it home, pressure washed the chassis and blew big holes in it 
238kirk- Unfortunately not! I've got half of the wiring stripped out at the moment, as I thought this bad weather was all over! I was obviously wrong!  An engine to TDi for!

Well been busy this weekend. Waxoyled the 90...

Then today I went about fitting the front wheel arch spats, front mudflaps and new side steps. Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Unfortunately, the side steps need some modification to fit properly, but nothing an angle grinder won't solve!  An engine to TDi for!
