United Kingdom 1999 Defender 110 Td5 SW Caledonian Blue
Friday the passanger side wiper arm fell off twice on way to work. Saved twice.
Splines in the arm had worn. Ordered a new pair of arms and new spindles. Old spindles had play in them
Less noise from the wipers now. 1999 Defender TD5 110

@excossack I think somebody should take your old wiper mech and design a better specced one with rose joints or something. Thumbs Up

United Kingdom 2014 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 USW Aintree Green
Spent the day marshaling a competitive safari for the local Land Rover club. The ground was a little damp and it was challenging getting about.

The old girl still performed well and proved here worth even winching out other marshals who sank.

Now just to wash her off.

as you can see i was first through, this was our 3rd to last green lane and on the last green lane i was 2 corners from the up hill top and i heard a loud snick, first thoughts was the fan belt, but then there was a load of steam coming out, so i quickly shut the engine off and lifted the bonnet up, well the fan belt was still intact and the steam was hissing and spitting, so we let it cooled down, could not see anything wrong until we filled her up with water again, the loud snick was the expansion tank splitting at the join seem, right in the place you could not see or get to Rolling Eyes so we took it off and did a " field " repair and got me home again Thumbs Up this morning a nearly new one was sourced and fitted by 9am and i took millie for a good shakedown run and all is good again Very Happy Very Happy The expansion tank was the original one, had 95 stamped on it Shocked here is the " field " repair....................

Thought it could not be original, but i was wrong Rolling Eyes great to have lasted this long Thumbs Up

We had a great number of lanes, but at least half of them are scratchy and 1 or 2 of them are like you cant see the landy in front of you Shocked Laughing

Yes they were great views Very Happy Very Happy 1996 Golf Blue 300Tdi 110 Pick up. Keeper.

After 3 months in storage I finally got round to getting the 110 out for its last clean.

The V8 Started straight away and sat burbling away....whilst I wondered how far down the fuel gauge the needle could go before it would run out of fuel.

It's off now to have the back door resprayed (its white) and then my lovely will be going up for sale Sad

After my 90 was nicked (recovered and then sold) I hoped my wife might settle down after a few months, but no. She would only let me bring the 110 to clean and then I had to put it back in storage.

Now I'm having thoughts about off roading the Rangey Laughing
