    Talk me into, or out of this Defender 110. I'm too far away to check it out. (NC)

Realistic expectations maintenance/repairwise for a 25+ year old Rover helps sticker shock when work is inevitably required. Having said...

    84 d-90 problem?

    This happens to my Pass side (RHD) taillight from time to time. Its because the contacts that actually touch the bulb aren't touching. Open up the taillight assembly, and with a flathead screwdriver, bend up the 2 small contacts very slightly (so if the tailight is installed, bend away from the...
