    Cheap heating for LCC members.

    I borrowed an e-bike battery and it supplied enough power to heat 250 sq.m. of floor space tonight to a constant 66f. Outside is about -3C tonight. That's the first time I've tried it. I'm pleased with that. That's a 700w battery running for 5 hrs powering my 1000w capacitor fan heater. That's...

    Adverts

    Since I was asked to download updates from the 'one app' from Samsung I've been flooded with targeted adverts. I managed to disable it and if I don't update from 'one iu' it's all good. I never turn my phone off,restart or update and I never use any cloud storage,this way normally works for me...

    250 series on the road?

    Does it live 'US' to the legend's name? Should it say 'live up' to the...? Hybrid so that's me out. I like the bonnet-stay though.

    Heading south.

    There's a lad who lives here in Jersey who apparently owns 50 LCruisers.Now, it costs at least £4000 VRD(Customs inport duty)to import a 100 series from the UK.He doesn't sell his LCruisers,well he sold this one to a nice lad I met on Saturday. He bought it for £8000 and he loves it.

    Fabryka v N4 Off road

    I searched for years to find a steel rear bumper and rock sliders for my 120 mate. I have two mates who are good welders so that's the solution I took. I often see groups of french LC 120's and 150's heading south for Morocco,usually well prepped with french protection. Paul at West Coast used...

    To Do or Not To Do - Injectors

    With the mpg you're getting I bet your injectors are in spec. Get them checked anyway. My 120's on 155,000 miles and all good. 120's are always shakey on start-up as long as it settles when it's warmed up. I like the agricultural feel of the engine.great torque and the noise and vibes keep me...

    Found the thread Karl,mine's the short SCV. While everything's working I'll leave it alone. I started the 120 all day without waiting at all. It started no problem and the tickover settled quickly. It's now my new starting technique! Key in,turn hold and start...
