Good morning to all you large engined Toyota fans. I have just received a letter from The Mayor of London, addressed to me in name and as the owner or a 1997, diesel, 4200cc Landcuiser. He has politely informed me that my beloved vehicle fails to meet the high standard required to drive into...

My J100 seems to be set in a default mode of 'lock the doors', regardless. It has become a bit of a pain in the derriere. With an electrician, we have located various modules related to the central locking, pulled them out, cleaned them and replaced, but, nothing alters the state of 'Lock'? We...

Well, here it is, my long awaited J100 Four/two Amazon. As you can see, its got a job to do, in and out of my field with my Ifor Williams 3.5 trailer and Giest Caravan. Also shifting motors from my works premises. The 90 is going for a clutch. Prior to this, I always had a Land Rover, but proper...

Something else...

This is the worst bit that we have found on the Amazon. The NSR Wheel arch was blistering but it did not look too bad until we went in with the grinder to reveal a fiberglass repair. To be fair it was a good repair, you would not have known. Anyway, its all cut out to reveal like a three piece...

What is the issue with the parking brake? Nothing can be as bad as an EPB. I sit in the Amazon just to pull the parking brake lever on, then release it again. So satisfying. Its a bit like one of the Clint Eastwood / Good Bad & Ugly movies when the Mexican chap is rotating the barrel on the...

Easy story to start, but it goes back a long way. I have always had a love of Land Rovers but it has come to an end. I have spent time on farms, I have soldiered in the REME and since I was 20yrs old, ( 0ver 30yr ago ), nearly always run an old Land Rover with a tool box in the back to earn a...
