Adrian,

I have an unpainted galvy Chasais on my 88". It was two years old when I
bought it ( The chassais!) and I have had it for 4 now, there is no sign of
any deterioration. From previous experience of galvy finish ( Lamposts!) you
need to let it weather until it has gone grey rather than shiney before
paint will stick to it propoerly on lamposts that is reconed t  be 3 to 6
months

I hope this helps

Kevan Shaw

Hi,

I got a piece of reasonable rubber matting to put in my 90 CSW from
Simmonites (uk) - number is in LRO.  It fits fine, but doesn't go up the
side of the wheelarches like the LR version.  Keeps the carpets (!!!
inserted for benefit of series owners) cleanish though.  Have still got a
damp passenger footwell though.

Yours ,

Subject: spare wheel

When I bought my new (old) LR the whell was mounted on the 
bonnet which seems the sensible place, back doors being what 
they are. Close inspection has shown that the wheel is mounted 
using a total bodge job! I asked my local Rover handler what the 
mounting kit and he said DM300 (more than 100 UKP!).

Does anyone know where I can get this kit second hand?

Does anyone feel like making me a sketch of there bonnet 
mounting and sending it to me. If it is as complex as the one on 
the back door of a defender I could easily make one with the 
advantage that I could then galvanise it!

Thanks in advance.
