Lovely to see some old-fashioned engineering talent - apart from the accent, reminds me of the honesty and charm of Fred Dibnah. Loveley as welto hear mention for Enochdhu - which I've known for years. If you're ever in Scotland again, give me a shout. Cheers. Richard
Don't worry, we will do the video at some point - the course (that everyone has to do now) is still ongoing! I just can't believe it was March when we met up in the pub! Oh, if you want to bypass the LEZ but want a 4x4 still, an old Series III is LEZ-compliant because it's over 40 years old. The irony is not lost on me that I can drive my Series III into Edinburgh an Glasgow (as well as London's ULEZ) free of charge, yet my parents Discovery 3 which is substantially less polluting requires a daily fee!
Yeah, it was definitely a strain - made worse by a 350mile commute daily to teach and a conference in Europe! Not quite the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but I’m 25 years older now!
I just got a new lower gas strut and it behaves just like the one in this video. Did you get the strut replaced? Was the replacement any better? Thanks
Hi Simon! I’ve been too busy to post a follow up short - but you’ve reminded me to do so… They did send me a new strut, and it behaves largely similarly. My friend’s, however, does not do it. I was going to swap their strut for mine to see if the geometry of the bracket is relevant or if it’s a bad batch of struts. I’m under pressure with some other things at the moment, and may not get too it soon, but watch this space! lol
