They've has just sent me through some pictures of a Defender they've recently worked on - I think it looks amazing!

They also sent through an article on Line-X run by Land Rover World, I can't upload it to the forum due to the size but if anyone is interested drop me a pm and I'll email it.

Regarding costs it depends on what you want done, but a normal pick-up liner is around £350+VAT with a lifetime guarantee. So if you see it as a boot liner, moisture barrier and sound deadening it's not too bad......although out of my reach at the moment Big Cry .

Fantastic job, funny i've just decided to remove my back seats out of my 2004 SW 90 because they just take up so much room and i never use them. Got 2 spaniels so this would be fantastic. I see they have a place in Aberdeen and I'm up there working in a couple of weeks so i think i will pop in and see them. Life time garrentee can't complain at that. O by the way is that a landrover fit ladder anyone help on that?

Thanks for the post

Haha they were generous! its just worn right out after 160,000miles worth of stuff sliding around in the back!

Ive just had my 110 back after a week in the garage having its warped head reskimmed! So I want to drive it as ive missed the old girl!

Got brand new BFG AT's on mods to put on and pack the old tyres up for the courier as ive sold them!

New winch bumper and husky to go on when bumper arrives!

And what are you doing in Cardiff Geo?


Ah crikey I have just had the head gasket scare Shocked but thankfully it ended up just being the fuel heater o-rings... Not a good prospect. Bet the ol'TD5 flies now it has been rebuilt though Thumbs Up

Sounds very much like you are buying the 110 a lot of "welcome back ol'girl" pressies Wink I miss having the winch out front, is another thing I have on my list to repair.

Cardiff is kind of a 2nd home as my partner is currently doing a Phd there. Heading down to pick her up on Friday, then back up to Shrewsbury on Saturday for the Lau concert, then we are off to France and Spain for a month... Very Happy Cannot wait, been planning for nearly a year now.

Oh and the trick is to keep buying gifts for your 110 so you remain in favour and it'll break down less... Wink

Line-X. Where do I start? (I nearly became a Line-X dealer recently!, but I didn't!)

The Line-X coating is simply a Polyurea coating. It really is a great product. It's waterproof, is very abrasion resistant, prevents rust/corrosion, and takes very little time to be applied.
The coating process goes like this. There are two main parts to the coating, which are mixed in the spray gun. As this happens, a chemical reaction happens which means that the costing dries within seconds of being applied (5-8 seconds to be precise).
With regards to cost, it really isn't cheap! But you get what you pay for! I've currently got Line-X in a number of breakdown/recovery vehicles, and also HGVs, and I've never had any problems with it at all.

HTH Thumbs Up An engine to TDi for!

If you're going down the Line X route, then why stop at just the pick-up bed! Admittedly he's gone a little OTT, but I like the paint on this! Peter
