Are you old enough to have that? Stu - I must be fairly unique there then. To be fair I didn't see many other Pumas in the car park really. Especially not 90's. $W33T $0U7H3RN $UG4R 🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴🇮🇪🇺🇸⛽️🛢️⚙️🧰💪 |

^^Was wondering if you meant that one when you said about the picture...
Just remembered that I took this picture of the same vehicle, but of the tyre... Click image to enlarge God knows how that passed an MOT :shock: Admin note: this post has had its images recovered from a money grabbing photo hosting site and reinstated An engine to TDi for!

I popped up there today with my daughter, kept an eye out for D2 stickered Defenders but no joy. Had a quick chat with Pete from BAS, nice bloke. Hope to visit him in the near future for a re-remap
While I was there bought a couple of goodies and sold my bumper and A bar that I'd just taken off to fit a new bumper bought at the show. Had a go on the off-road course (green run) and came away relatively unscathed. Didn't want to risk the red run after seeing some guy progressively trashing his 07 plate D3. The weather was pants but both me and my daughter enjoyed the show anyway, saw some cracking Defenders and got a few ideas to try on my 90. Hope those going tomorrow have better weather 2015 90 XS CSW TDCi - Beautiful 2007 110 XS DCPU - An itch that needed scratching 2005 90 Td5 XS CSW - Utterly brilliant 2001 Discovery 2 ES Auto - A phase I went through 1996 90 Tdi CSW - Uber reliable 1989 90 2.5 Petrol Hardtop - My first proper Landy 1985 Range Rover Vogue V8 -Troublesome |

As far as I'm aware, it's classed as a fail under The Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986. Part 11 subsection 2. I will however, check with my VOSA trained MOT tester at work on Monday morning, just for conformation. An engine to TDi for! "Land Rover- Proudly turning drivers into mechanics since 1948" |

Oh, forgot to mention that I parked in the row in front of JWL in the car park. Very nice 110 (This was before I re-parked next to the entrance ) An engine to TDi for!

I must admit to being a little disappointed, I expected somehow that it would be a bit bigger but on the other hand it was quite friendly and a "happy" little show that has potential to grow. I managed to miss the rain, that happenend on the journey down, it was just over a 2 hour trip for me so had plenty of time for the wet to move on from the showground.
It's such a shame that the catering prices have to be so steep, I know these weren't as bad as some venues but there has to be a more cost effective way of being able to feed youngsters without having to cart round food so as not to break the bank, I'm sure if there was a way organisers of the venues and catering providers could get together to be able to lower the cost to Joe Public then it would make these shows a lot more family friendly. That's just my opinion |

Who had the grey 90 not far from the camping area with the D2 sticker on the top of the windscreen? Mud tyres on which were muddy too?
No one seemed to be near it.. $W33T $0U7H3RN $UG4R 🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴🇮🇪🇺🇸⛽️🛢️⚙️🧰💪 |
