Do any Landrovers owners here live on the Mull of Kintyre? We're moving that way shortly and it'd be good to get the low-down on local places for spares and MOT work (and where to avoid) plus maybe meet up for some off-roading.
Cheers Gary
You come down to Summer Camp a day early and let us do the work :)
Not sure if I fancy coming all the way down to Geoff's in a Series Landrover though. It was a bit of an endurance trip bringing it north to Scotland in the first place.
Cheers Gary
We'd happily come up and do the work, our mileage rates are very reassuring :)
Button bashing in practice for another round of Daley Thompson's Decathlon, Gary Sutherland left Shakespeare to the monkeys by typing...
Endurance trip? I fetched my '67 100" V8 from London (to NE Scotland) in the middle of summer (35degC+ losing a stone on the drive) and it was a pleasure (well, apart from all those BMW/Merc/Porsche drivers straying into the LR lane). And Bristol in October - we'd use the Golf, but one of the in-laws' neighbour's cats shat on the mat (garden) so a little midnight trialling (open pipes and we'll take a spare set of tyres (Mudpluggas)) is called for... Hofficer, it's a Landrover - they're easy to twoc! And an on-demand oil leak (upside-down gear-oil bottle) to complete the job..
If you need 2nd-hand spares that can be posted (SII/III) I've got lots ("down-sizing" the "fleet") - just ask - and if you wanted handbrake adjuster bits and still want them, email.
Oh, and I missed Macca at Glastonbury (boohoo) - 3days on the "Other Stage". Oh woe is me, oh woe, oh woe. I know this is OT but MoK still breaks me out in a cold sweat when it's mentioned near him....
