    Baselining My 80 / Overland Build

    Having enjoyed trouble free motoring for a few years since the major works on the undercarriage and interior, I’ve got a little problem with the fuelling now. After a day of standing, it takes about 4 attempts to start it. The each time it gets better than the last and on the final one it...

    Tentipi

    Though we did decide to hang onto it, reality has finally dawned, so it’s still for sale. It’s located in Stevenage.

    Tentipi

    This is a Safir CP9 with groundsheet which sleeps 9 squished together or a family of 4 or 5 with dogs in comfort. It is a high end, very robust and long lasting all weather tipi. It’s Nordic in origin and probably one of the best you can buy. We have used it once for one night but for the...

    Looking for a roof tent

    We endured severe gale force winds on the coast once in our Eezi. We survived but had to adapt, we turned the car so the smallest area faced the winds, tied the ends of platform overhang to the car and put earplugs in.

    Ignition Broken - can’t start - help needed

    A pal of mine over here in France has 97 Colorado on which the ignition barrel is properly broken. The key no longer goes in and doesn’t turn and the immobiliser has kicked in preventing him starting it. Is there a way to start it without and is there anyone who might be able to supply a new...

    Blimey

    Electric cars should have external speakers that go ‘brrum brrum” or something so you can hear them coming. I nearly got flattened by some green person reversing off his drive. Long live petrol and the V8 :character-oldtimer:

    I also searched for this when you posted it and for some reason I did so again today and found it here ..... https://m.ok.ru/video/281921981157. There’s no payment, no registration and I watched on my TV by casting it from my iPhone to the AppleTV. Interesting. Mostly about shuttle launches.

    Baselining My 80 / Overland Build

    After 45,000 Miles my RCV CVs started clicking a little in reverse on full lock and less so forwards on full lock, so I got in touch with RCV directly. This is their response...... “..... In order to fix the clicking issue it may need a rebuild kit. A rebuild kit for these joints cost $95.00...

    HEKP. Computer didn't start.

    Yep, definitely disk / controllers ..... replace

    HEKP. Computer didn't start.

    My Pavillion started doing that a while ago. For me, When it tried to boot, the disks were silent, no clicking etc. Happens every now and again exactly as you describe. Likely to be disk controllers or disks. Best solution is to replace and back up in the meantime.

    Eezi Awn T-Top Exclusive with sides

    Its a larger one, 1.6m and we are only selling it as we have bought a Tentipi. We bought it new, it is now 2 years old and has been wintered indoors. We used it for a total of 5 months and, as you would expect from an Eezi Awn, it is brilliant. The sides have been used once only ! There are...

    Request from a Technophobe

    We've used a Garmin GPSMAP600 and iPads and iPhones for a few years with topo maps. We currently use "GAIA GPS" on Apple i devices. Before this we used "GPSKIT HD" on Apple too. The best for us is GAIA. The pro version is a mere 40$ and all maps are included. They are pretty good. Not as good...

    Handbrake dog bones?

    Hi Dave Put a blob of weld in the fork end. No more than 5mm, fit and test, if too big then file down the blob to suit. Ignore the FSM for setting it up, there's a write up on here - can't remember whodunnit though.
