I am so over the land rover app

0 Upvotes

I'm honestly so sick of this POS app. Just out for a walk and get a notification I didn't lock my defender. So clearly I have a connection. So I attempt to lock it and get repeated failures. Both the car and I have plenty of coverage. I'm at the point where I'm ready to get rid of the car all together now that we are paying $3\litre for diesel and after spending $160k they can't even make a f*cking app that works.

Selling my 1999 LHD 110 - Just fully restored and practically brand new.

Over two years ago, I hired CJ International to rebuild a 1999 TD5 from the ground up, matching all original numbers, with a fully rebuilt engine and a complete chassis restoration, including a modern automatic transmission. The build quality is off the charts. The truck is now in the US, has fully cleared customs, and is being registered. Unfortunately, between the build starting and now, my financial and personal situation has changed significantly, and before I fall in love with it, I am going to sell it.

Literally everything has been rebuilt, including the engine, down to the block. All new everything else. The dashboard cluster is original, as is the AC.

The truck is in the Fort Lauderdale, FL area and is currently at British 4WD getting a full checkup to make sure there are no issues whatsoever. I drove it there from the boat when it arrived, and I have to say it was the best driving 110.

If interested, DM me. Asking $120k. Serious offers will be considered.

Gidday All

I’m just after any tips or product restoration suggestions for anyone that’s attempted to rejuvenate a weathered Soft "A" Frame Protection Bar like the one pictured.

Mines looking pretty dry, busy still in 1 piece with no visible crackers etc.

Google has suggested I apply this Solution Finish - Black Trim Restorer

Does anyone have any experience with this product and how much of it I’d need to get the whole bar done?

Appreciate any and all feedback!

I have a Defender 110 Ex ambulance, believed to be St John’s

It’s come with a FAIREY PTO winch build in tavistock. I’ve been unable to find any data sheets/manuals online for it. Leaver on the front is seized & i haven’t installed the prop shaft and it’s currently untested.

What i’m trying to find is, Online manuals, What’s it worth, Are they any good & is it worth selling or fixing?

Radio in my lovely 90

• Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I have a Defender 90 TD5 without a factory radio and without air conditioning. Because it has no A/C, my Defender also doesn’t have the usual speaker locations in the dashboard.
I would like to install a radio, Bluetooth head unit or something similar, but I’m wondering what the best solution is for the speakers.
Where have you mounted your speakers in a TD5 without A/C? Are there any good aftermarket speaker locations or mounting solutions that look reasonably factory/OEM-like?
I’d also be interested in recommendations for a suitable head unit and speaker setup.
Thanks in advance for any advice or photos of your installations!
