Interesting. I thought the axles were common to all Land Rovers, Discoverys and Range Rover Classics of that era.

Not quite, they're interchangeable but there are differences. Defender rear axles are drum braked, RRC & Disco are disc. Pre-1993 axles are 10-spline, post-1993 are 24-spline. Therefore a set of 300Tdi Disco axles will give me all round disc brakes and stronger halfshafts.

Meccano for growed ups. Marvellous.

Still poring over the Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic ads in eBay, GumTree, carandclassic and AutoTrader.

One day.

Since my night in Aberystwyth, Booking.com have been emailing helpful suggestions.

Today's is:

Last-minute deals for Aberystwyth and Geneva. Get them before they're gone!‏

Aberystwyth and Geneva.

Uh, huh.

Marley?

I knew you took it up the arse

C'mon, Ad.

You can do better than that.

[Adenauer]

Sorry, I'm ashamed of myself. I was distracted by seeing how far Flensburg is from Adenau.

[SWTH]

Dicky, you need an RRC.

This is my old one, on the Wayfarers Way:

[Mr Roper]

How far is Flensburg from Adenau?

[Adenauer]

Put it this way, would you drive from Bournemouth the Edinburgh to look at a Seat Ibiza?

[Adenauer]

I thought so.

[Mr Roper]

She's a Vegan.

I'm so sorry to hear that.

When will you be kicking her out?

[DickyC]

SWTH said:

Yes. I know really.

I'd like a two door but they seem to be at a premium.

A four door would be more convenient. With both doors open a two door is as wide as a small aerodrome.

[Mr Roper]

I've made short work of 3 packets of Smiths spicy tomato SNAPS.

3 for paaaahnd?..oldoutyeraaahnd, son.

[Adenauer]

I might have made that bit up.

[pad58]

Yes ,yes the Golf is now de-mapped to factory 163 BHP and it's poo.

Mates rates £50

[Mr Roper]

Done...I'll give you £50.
