Have you checked the mega fuse? The starter is fed directly from the battery and there's a huge 500A fuse that lives behind a red plastic cover on the positive line coming off the battery inside the b ...

ULEZ isn't about CO2 emissions, it's about particulates and NOx which isn't part of the MOT so isn't listed on documents and why there's just a blanket tax on Euro 5 and before vehicles. The best I ca ...

Now I'm mostly retired I'm going back over old projects and sorting them out. First is to fix the garage roof which means clearing the garage out and then sorting out the Mini. The garage roof has bee ...

As said above, it could be glow plugs and there are threads on that to read through. Could also be injector seals that need replacing, my one got all smokey on start-up when the injector seals were fa ...

Regarding my above tyre question I was advised to fit the tyre and see what happens so that's what I did. OK, so far.

I need a spare wheel. I'm guessing they're 5.5 x 16" but the Limestone Series 3 wheels are coming up as tube wheels, is that right? The tyres on the car at the moment are General Grabber AT3 225/ ...

To be honest, it's a totally bizare set up. How on earth did they ever think this was a good idea! I come to Land Rover from a (classic) Mini background and you can see elements of the Mini British Le ...

Blackwolf, yes there is a front number plate but I removed it from the picture (only while the paperwork is coming through, I don't know why I do that but it doesn't feel mine until I've got a load of ...

I did notice that but figured that they've switched it off while they're running? Important thing was the clean chassis, running gear and bodywork.

Thanks for the comment though, I'll see if I can ...

I've been looking since Christmas and found a good one yesterday, deposit paid and it gets delivered next week (it was too much of a pain to bus - train - tube - bus to go and get it).
