Delbert Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 I'd stick to the roads if I were you. The owners of Hampton Caught might be miffed if you go off roading in the ornamental Gardens 😬 When you realise the worlds not nice just drop your pants and slide on the ice!!!

neil.cavanagh Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 😬 😬 Perfick weather for a landie today to!! Mrs GTD is this the very clasey old one you found a month or so back?? You'll be challenging Kev to 4x4 drag races across Salisbury plans next! But the big questions is, how long will it be before the first C/F add on appears??? 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTD Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 Oi! Not sure that Carbon Fibre is suitable stuff to make wellies and a barbour jacket out of anyway? LR insurance - for a 1962 series 2A, through a classic insewerance specialist, 5,000 miles a year, £500 excess G 4 Geoff Leather Good - Carbon Fibre Bad 619 GTD here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs GTD Posted October 15, 2004 Author Share Posted October 15, 2004 No GTD - £100 excess. The insurance was through Adrian Flux and is with Equity Redstar. As old Landy's aren't worth very much the insurance is pretty reasonable - especially when you're as old as I am For £133 it's fully comp and we have legal protection cover thingy Yes, this is the old one from a month back. 1962 SWB (88") 2.25 petrol engined. Blue with cream safari roof - perfect for Hampton Court. Have I mentioned I'm very excited? 😬 Mrs GTD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hibster. Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 I'd get a price from Micheldever tyres as a check. Also don't forget that Landie type tyres come in prices to suit all budgets Supercheese R250 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs GTD Posted October 18, 2004 Author Share Posted October 18, 2004 It's mine 😬 I drove from Hampton Court to West Sussex yesterday, and this morning I feel like I've had a workout. It sounds like a cement mixer, drives like a boat and smells like a petrol station, but I looked like this 😬 when I was driving it. Got waves from other Landy drivers, which really helped to make my day. Happy as a happy thing, and doing this 😬 a lot. Mrs GTD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs GTD Posted October 26, 2004 Author Share Posted October 26, 2004 Landy update. It's in the garage, having lots of work done, which is costing lots of £££, but it will be as good as new when it comes back, and handle a bit less like a boat. 😬 Mrs GTD Carbonette - patches that make it easy to say NO to carbon fibre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
