I know, my XJ looks far too pampered compared to other 4x4s when I park near them

Narp.

Do you know any good lanes near Northampton?

Being my daily and not wanting to break anything, I would not want to be rock-crawling or mud-bogging but a little mud and some sliding is all good!

You have done well looking after her..

I'm too lazy to rotate tyres but yours are certainly holding up well . . . I normally get about 25000-35000 outta mine but my driving is 80% motorway.

You're the least lazy person I know..

Nice fix . . .

Although it looks like your rear exhaust hanger clamp has gone south, too . . .

Well spotted and you're right, it has, but, it is still held securely, so, as I understand it should not effect the MOT..

Stop it

Do you think it will fail like that? My understanding is that if the item is securely fixed, or, there is movement within reason, it will pass.

Otherwise, I will have to also do the anti-roll-bar bushes, AGAIN, becuase the ones I have put on have desintegrated and are cracked again. I only installed them, last year I think?!

The roll bar is solid though, no movement in it.

Shit quality parts

I'll just order another clamp, it is an easy job that is not worth failing on.
