734 miles and a ferry crossing. All at 70-75 mph. Two tanks used. Not too bad considering the load.

Not sure yet, chap I shoot with rang me and offered it me so I said yes, he says it has an intermittent fault where it stutters as if its running out of fuel, I did 5 mile in it last night after picking it up and was fine to me.
Think it may of been on air originally and some one has fitted HD springs to it and its too harsh of a ride for my liking |

Indeed it is, TD5 Manual with 83k, it drives fine, only reason I picked it up on the trailer was because it's easier than getting a lift for it 
Did show a fault on the MAF so I cleared that and fitted a spare one, no fault come back up so all seems good. Non sunroof with AC too |

Soo last week whilst running breather lines I found an oil leak coming out of the adaptor shaft housing drain hole.
Soo yesterday the Tbox came off to have a look and yes the rear gearbox oil seal was leaking with a small telltale weaping coming down from it. £25 for a seal later 
and a few hours work to refit and reassemble and fingers crossed no more leaks. 
Whilst I was in there I had a look at the adaptor shaft and re-greased it

I’d try a new cap first, it’s cheap and they sometimes fail. Only buy genuine or oem. Ray My build thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic17615.html |

Not today, a little while ago, dragged the Rapier trailer out and went to get some logs. 100 euro for this load
