It put out wait for it................................... 68bhp, BUT im sure I gained at least an extra 50 bhp with the peco backbox and k&n style filter.

Plus I ran it on super unleaded, not many bicycles passed me!

Looks smart even if it's a landrover :lol:

I don't understand how you can afford to insure that with all it's mods but not the SJ though :er:
What's the price difference?

Cheers all, Insurance with Aviva for my Suzuki is £7474.00 and for a Land Rover its £2110.00 however i'm going to speak to the NFU so hopefully they will bring it down more.. okay £2000 pound is alot for first years insurance but when i get insurance on a Vauxhall Corsa say for sake its well over £3000. It drives me crazy!!

Anyway today I spent all day with my father cleaning all the mud out from underneath.. put my hand in one of the chassis brackets and pulled out this... took it around to my neighbour as she is into that sort of stuff and she reckons it was either an old blue tit nest or a Robin one either way the egg is dead now. And then when I get some spare time I'm going to cut the paintwork back with some G3 as im pretty sure its never been polished!
