Hi all, I've just joined the club and saved money straight off finding out about steering stops! fantastic.

I'm the relatively new but extremley proud owner of an 02 Terrano 2.7td lwb, I got it to work hard pulling our caravan but its not been allowed to get rest for more than overnight, love driving it as an everyday car, motorway trips the lot.

I'm a fairly competant car diyer but petrol saloon cars, 4x4 diesels are a new beasty to me so stand by for the questions coming in :wink:

Look forwards to exchanging views and info with you and , having looked at the gallery, a bit of green laneing

cheers

Dave

Thanks for the warm welcome all :smile:

Just looking at the pics I must say what a lovely colour the car is :wink: much the same as the one on my drive!

I've managed to locate some touch up paint for the red from the trim code but the bottom half is a bit more difficult, can anyone advise?

thanks

Dave

Thanks again for the welcomes, interestingly Chris I did the same swap as you, Mondeo to T2. (mondeo was worth bugger all!!)

The phrase "no regrets" appllies to me and I'm sure you too.
