Subject: workshop manuals

It is now a few weeks since I posted my request for information 
concerning workshop manuals for my 1986 110 station wagon. This 
is a summary of the advice I received.

The books which are available are:

Workshop manual Land Rover 90/110/Defender 1983 - ON 
Brooklands Books 41.95 pounds.

Workshop manual Land Rover 90/110/Defender 1983 - on ^O
Owners Edition 15.96 pounds.

Land Rover 90, 110 & Defender Repair and Service Manual.^O
1983 - on. Haynes. (Only diesel engines). 14.99 pounds

The level of detail, it has been suggested, is directly proportional to 
the price. The prices shown are the rrp. My research has shown 
thet prices vary considerably. www.bookshop.co.uk are the 
cheapest up to now.

Thanks to all those who supplied advice.

Subject: dents and suppliers

After 12 years I am, since yesterday, once again a land Rover 
owner! (1986 bright orange 110 station wagon with a V8.) 

My new Land Rover has a fair sized dent in the bonnet. My local 
body work expert does not think it is any great problem. My 
question is - 

Can he treat a Land Rover body as if it was a normal car body or 
does the aluminium require special treatment. Needless to say he 
hasn't worked on a LR before (there are probably less than ten in 
the whole county) doesn't know.

My second question is -

Can anyone recommend a reliable and fast mail order parts 
supplier. I sent email and fax requests to a wide variety of suppliers 
last week. The fastest answer was two days later and the worst, up 
to now, is a firm that said they wouldn't charge VAT outside the 
EC. Who knows where they think Bavaria is. If I break a part I want 
to be able to order it next day and get it the day after.

Subject: Cleaning Lights

Hi

I have got a pair of Lucas Spot Lights. They are slightly green on the
reflector due to spending most of their time on a landrover bumper, and
thus in water a lot (it was with us!)

How can I clean these, and do they need it.  A freind has said if i put
them through the dishwasher I may lose the reflective coating at the back.
Anyone?

Cheers

The nice thing was the side canopy, I would have one tomorrow... =
Mmmmnnn..

I've got the brownchurch as well, very well made, wouldn't part with it =
for the world.

Geoff, get down to Argos, get a "garden canopy" for 17.50UKP, hangs off =
the roof rack fine, will stand alone, best of both worlds.....
I've had one three years now, paid for itself many a wet night.

Local Autoshop today had H1 s with a blue glass "Supposed to cut through
fog better"  "30% Brighter" 55W and 100Watt.  Is that legal for Aux spots
on road, wired into main beam?  About £ 11-00 for two.

I need an H2 so I couldn't get it.
