Looking great.
As mentioned when I popped past yours, We had SAAB 95s and 96s as our family cars when I was young. My parents are also teachers, so there's a pattern here....

Thanks again.
Mmmmmm. Sounds like a similar problem I've had with mine with the key not turning at all and no amount of wiggling (key or wheel) would seem to make it budge. And then it suddenl ... |

Morning,
I don't know if you can replace the switch on its own, I replaced the whole barrel assembly as my issue related to the key rather than the switch.
The bolt in the picture is one of the ... |

If I've found the right product, the manufacturer suggests the 100 is fine for up to 200kw, which is what, 250bhp ish?

I believe Urban/Kahn/Chelsea MoCo also do various steel wheels in the appropriate fitment.
Lucari have also launched a deeper dished steel wheel. Available in 16 & 18" fitments.

£5k in maintenance is a bit vague and not really indicative of expected costs unless you can caveat it with what cost £5000.
For instance, if you only used a main dealer and paid £200-300/hr lab ... |

I agree with Hank.
I'd be inclined to give the existing engine a 'go' first, before going to the effort and expense of swapping it out.
Most of the bits that you'll clean/check replace would be ... |

I agree, Mine was 200miles from home when I bought it.
I did a couple of equally long trips when I first had it (and was very enthusiastic about it), but now 25-30 miles is plenty.

I've driven my series for 200+mile trips, but it is tiring. Much more so than in my Defender.

I remember my 110 was running 30/48psi when I first bought it.
Dropping the rear down to mid 30s made a huge difference to the ride. |
