ahem.... http://www.fullfatrr.com/forum/topic13219.html

Things i Bust/Nearly broke!
Well the rear Drivers side quarter has a 2 line crease where the car slid down a grass hill as i took it too low where there wasn't enough grip to climb back up. Its not that deep and hasn't punctured too much paintwork but will be about £2-300 damage I reckon.
This also cracked the rear light lens so another expense.
The engine nearly died when I went through a long stretch of tunnelled water which being enclosed built up more and more and then pushed along the side of the car behind the headlights and got some sucked in, this was caught by the air filter which strangled the engine as the fine bits of it just clogged up and stopped airflow. Engine saved and it ran just long enough before cutting out to get me out of the water at which point power slowly died over about 10 seconds. Filter off IC and pipework checked for water, engine spun over and caught almost straight away(putting some of this down to the pump as well!)
Mantec under-shield has more scrapes on it now and the Fat Rover is caked in mud from top to tail so polish wash sometime soon me thinks and i'll do the inside myself with the hoover as its mainly dry grass and bits of mud and a good excuse for the leather to have another clean as well with the zymol and gliptone.

I'm going to see about making up my own snorkel seeing as no-one in the business world is interested even when i wave money at them and am happy to guinea pig it.

Im also intending to buy 2-3 more of the under-shields and get them beaten/made into the right shape for a complete underbody slider as the transfer box and its cage is quite vulnerable and I think a smooth underside whilst adding another 30kg of weight would help MPG and be better for offroad tackling.

Im seeing if the sill protectors from RLD can easily be adapted from d3/4 fitment to FF as the plastic sill covers are good but not strong enough to slide over rocks... Tree sliders may be another option but i fear they may not be wide enough with the side curve of the FF factored in.

In all it was great fun and i really enjoyed a weekend of camping and laning with beer and burgers/sausages/bacon all in there is great

The FF did very well IMO and was only let down on the last day by the sliding due to weight/grip ratio being poo and the iffy pump(external one) and the air intake set-up leaking and pulling air from behind the headlight instead of the grille on the wing..

All being fixed Gaz And a full detail on the outside to bring it back upto scratch(No pun intended!)

Other than that the mechanics are all ok now, the intank pump was dying which caused the running fault not any water ingress. The mechanic on the trip said he would have expected the air filter to drip when lifting it out, not when squeezed because it was foam and that the water in the pipes was likely just condensation from them being so hot during the slow running and then hitting the cold water so quickly

All in its fine now FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

2011 Range Rover Autobiography Black TDV8 Barolo Black

I'd crawl all over both of them, and then buy the one in the best condition - regardless of the mileage or what the number plate says. Condition is the only thing that matters.

Having just had the painful experience of having my car valued (2007 TDV8 84k FLRSH - £17k...) in this market I think you would be doing very well to get £20k for the cars mentioned
