Hey Kevin,
Sorry to hear about the loss. Hopefully you'll get it back
See ya,
Mike

I've got some great news to report which I'm sure some of you have heard - the 90 is coming home! Will Hendrick, a fellow Rover enthusiast and attorney for the two dozen of us involved (might I add pro bono) cannot be thanked enough for the countless hours he put in for all of us to have our Rovers coming back. I should be in receipt of it over the next few weeks and out on the trail shortly after that.

Cheers,

Kevin

It was definitely great to hear that they were returning a lot of those seized Defenders. I can only imagine how overjoyed you are!

I'm glad to report the 90 is back and running well after having to replace some sour diesel fuel. Can't wait to get on the trail shortly and hopefully plan a longer trip once the weather cools

It has not been an easy decision but I've recently had to list my 90 for sale. I unfortunately do not have the time to enjoy it like I used to. Need not worry, I will still be in my Discovery enjoying and exploring the outdoors.

This is pretty common - mine still leaks around the clutch peddle - you can do a good bit of sealing. Land rover actually has a water proofing manual for the defender.

on the clutch peddle - look at the slave cylinder on the LT95 after you re-bleed the system and verify you do not have a Master cylinder leak (which manifests as break fluid on the clutch peddle)
