Agree :) We towed a caravan for about 50 miles without realising that handbrake for the caravan was on. It is stupid and we should have checked - there is no excuse for that.:cry: There is a autobox temp gauge installed as well as a large Hayden transmission cooler. Box was recently filled...

It's time to drain and refill automatic transmission fluid. After reading the glories of castrol transmax z on Lcool considering switching to it except that it is prohibitively expensive.:icon-rolleyes: Are there any relatively economical alternatives to transmax? What are the pros and cons of...

Thank you Andy and Chadr :) bought brand new Cooper zeons @ Camskill.

We use Amex Travellers cheques. I think you can get prepaid cards from fairfx euro and caxton. We tend to spread our travel cash a bit - some in travellers cheques, some in cash, and the rest on prepaid cards.

I.M.H.O proper police work costs money. Relying on CCTV / ANPR and perhaps Drones (in the future) to do police work is :eusa-naughty:

All the best Chris. :icon-biggrin:

Going by the number of "We buy all landcruisers" type of adverts on Fleabay and trader I guess there is a decent demand in the "ideal for export" market. When I enquire about a landcruiser that's up for sale I am asked " Are you looking to export it mate?":icon-biggrin:

He is asking £3600 for it here http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/toyota-landcruiser-vx-80-series-42-td-manual-1997/1015513615
