Okay who has the highest mileage running Rover in here?

Well said, fix everything with a hammer and a screwdriver and live with the door handles and abs light

Don't forget that SRS light too, and the locks that don't quite go up enough, and the intermittent blower motor issues, and the random times it won't start the first time...

A broken rover is a happy rover right?

[TwoJ's]

Man, this makes me want a P38 again.

Damn locks don't get me started, anyone else have to do fancy tricks to open the doors

[InuFaye]

Yeah not lock the doors.

If someone steals it ill get more in insurance money.

[5ickride]

I think you won, last year I bought. 95 RRC with 98k and my grandma has a 95 disco with 68k

My locks work fine, knock on wood. Only problem is the rear hatch won't lock and I don't have a key that fits it.

Success story: 6 degrees outside this morning & Nigel fired right up.

Failure story: His blower switch decided to choose today to fail completely. Nothing. No heat at all. Even with gloves on, my fingers were stiff & numb by the time I arrive at work.

On my rear door and pass door, the lock will go up, then fall a half inch or so. Have to pull up on the tab and open the door at the same time. Actuators work, just don't cycle right. Tried tweaking the little rods to no avail.

Oh and my disco has a mild 160k on it.

Didn't even know those existed! Thanks a bunch!

[AZRRC]

Are RRCs the same way?

Mine wont even open on the inside passenger, the looks on peoples faces when I tell them to roll down the windows and unlock it.

Also its gotten really hard to turn the key to lock the drivers side.

Think some graphite would cure that?


Also thinking about doing a 2" Terrafirma or OME lift in the summer.
