I bit to hard. On the west coast the police houses nearly always have Land Rovers, you can't even get to a lot of houses in a saloon car. The SIII 88s were alway inconspicuous. As they get replaced they are replaced with 90 jam sandwiches. There are many reasons why the actual officers think this daft, apart from the obvious beacon effect a Land Rover tends to get scatched etc. in the wilds and a pretty paint job is not a good idea. I did try very hard for the job of maintainance engineer on the radio masts dotted accross Galloway as the car that came with that job was a police Land Rover SIII. They didn't see why a computer geek thought he was suitable for the job and although I tried hard I failed to convince them otherwise I didn't get the job. All the police radio masts are on remote hill tops and so every day would be spent off road in a Land Rover being paid for it. As I used to do (computer) support work for them I even had the computer manager from the HQ as a reference but they seemed to think that experience would be more important than enthusiasm, can't understand why....... The electricity board in Scotland use 130s and since moving down here (the Cotswolds) I have noticed a lot of electricity board 130s here as well. BT tend to use 90s. I haven't yet seen the electric board or BT with a Toy-o-cars but I do accept that that does not mean they don't exist.

(beating his head against the wall) E-mail messages *CAN NOT* do anything to your system. E-mail is a text file, text can't hurt your machine. Someone *could* attach a file that contains a virus or ActiveX control that could wipe your system, but it couldn't do anything until you open or run the attachement. That's why you should use a *good* AV program to scan attachments, although that won't protect you from rouge ActiveX. For instance, MS Word is *very* prone to macro viruses (the most famous, Concept, was distributed by MS on their developer CD). One that's been going around here on campus is the MDMA macro virus which runs Deltree /y on your system. It does whacko things on Macs also. (Do not rely on MS ScanProt, it gives a false sense of security, but will let macro virus run under several common circumstances). ActiveX controls are another matter. Used in many apps, and downloadable from the web, they can be *very* dangerous. A famous one to demonstrate their danger is called Internet Exploder. It reformats your hard drive when it's run. AV programs won't protect you from them. Sorry for the length of an off topic. Maybe something like this could be put in the mailing list faqs, so people might quite with the "Good Times" warnings.

Well, maybe something as light as a series one, and maybe with a turbo. But the main prob with the VW light diesel is lack of adequate protection for the timing belt, and no other way to time the cam. A twig or a little water and mud could cause thousands in damage in any currency. I have enough stuff to build a couple of 2.4 six cyl diesels cause one of my Volvo wagons is diesel, but the timing belt problem causes me not to look at it to power a LR. BTW I built a normally aspirated 2.4 for the 740 (supposed to be a TD in this market) cause my daughter was going to use it more than me and I didn't want to be worrying about turbo cooldown. It seems about as fast as the other wagon which has the 2.3fi petrol engine and automatic. Cheers!!

There is an article entitled "Private Ventures Hope For Profits On Spy Satellites", it as about using spy satellites for personal use for the public. My question to you is, would this be a nice tool to map and chart, uncharted areas of land not accessible to most off-road-vehicles, to find new and better trails; or is this just one more log on the fire of how we(being people who try to get away from civilization with our trucks) can no longer enjoy the PRIVET quiet spots that only we know? Like the best trout stream in northern Wisconsin that I just happined to stumble upon one day. Do you feel that the government is trying to sell the lost land we live for? The example in the article sights someone wanting to take a sail boat in the ocean, how this would help he/she could plot his/her corse. Feedback please.

In Canada at least, the entire country is photographically mapped and you can order the photos you want, you can also get them in stereo views as well for determining relief. Of much more use are the topographic maps which contain contour lines and are much more easily used for off roading purposes. I suppose that if you wished to use your LR to go charging off through northern forested areas for a specific purpose it might make sense to order up a recent satellite shot to show where the latest cut-lines and logging roads have been made since the aerial survey but otherwise it looks like something a little too exotic for ordinary off roading. As for the mention in the story that yachters would make use of the satellite service to find new and exotic cruising grounds, well I think again that a decent chart would be of more use. Then again, if you were going to sail "Tinkerbelle" through the Northwest Passage you might want a recent shot of the ice cover to find a safe way through although here again there are cheaper ways of getting that information.

The by-invitation-only event is hosted by Denise Guardino, president of Land Rover Centres in Hinsdale and Barrington and Bill Jacobs Motorsports in Naperville. It starts at noon in room S104A of McCormick Place South and will bring together women from a cross-section of careers. Greene will encourage more women to learn how to drive off-pavement. "Women are a major force behind the popularity of sport utility vehicles, but relatively few know how to take full advantage of them and get the most fun out of driving one," she notes. Greene fought back from two years of being bed-ridden and near death from Epstein-Barr disease to become the first and, so far, the only woman to make the U.S. team in the Camel Trophy Adventure. Considered "The Olympics Of Four-Wheel Drive," it annually selects two-person teams representing 20 nations from more than a million applicants and takes them and their Land Rovers to a remote spot on the globe for a challenging 1,000 mile four-wheel drive trek. An adventure consultant with her own company, Twende, Greene has organized mountain climbing and backpacking trips in Africa, Alaska and the California Sierra as well as led four-wheel drive excursions in the U.S. She will be available for interviews following her talk and will have B-roll of the grueling competition and trials that led to her selection for the U.S. team and of her traverse of the jungle backroads in Central America's land of the Maya. ________________________________________________________________ Regards Jamie ------------------------------[ <- Message 52 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 970211 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

From: "Beckett, Ron" <rbeckett@nibupad.telstra.com.au> Subject: Trouble In Unsubscribing? Date: Tue, 11 Feb 97 16:50:00 EST I wonder - I notice a .lot of the request to unsubscribe merely say UNSUBSCRIBE. However, the Major is quite adamant when you do subscribe that you should specify from what you need to unsubscribe. To quote (with my name/address changed to protect the innocent) and using the address majordomo@playground.sun.com If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "Majordomo" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe land-rover-owner "User Name" <email address> in a similar way one should use the following to remove oneself from the various lists: unsubscribe rro "User Name" <email address> unsubscribe lro-digest "User Name" <email address> unsubscribecso-digest "User Name" <email address> I haven't found it necessary to fill in the "User Name" <email address> components but it might be best.

There was an article in LRO a couple of years ago where a couple from UK converted a 110 Tdi into a camper and spent months touring North America (total of 27,000 miles), but theirs was originally a Hard Top not a SW. They had a roof tent for extra room and carried two kayaks aswell. The issues to look for are August and September 1994 (if you would like to see the articles I could copy them and post them to you if you send your address) __________________________________ Simon Ward-Hastelow, Orpington, Kent, UK "DOROTHY" - 1985, 110, V8, CSW __________________________________ ------------------------------[ <- Message 60 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 970211 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

Does this re-inforce some kind of 'I don't give a damn' macho image or is your landrover so badly maintained that the dirt and grime of years of use is the only thing holding it together? My 110 is used in very serious off-road conditions occassionaly and it does get noticed when driving through town with a few inches of mud stuck to the side but at the earliest opportunity I wash it off and I do frequently POLISH the paintwork - this is not done for anything other than a method of preserving the paint and making it last a bit longer without having to re-spray. __________________________________ Simon Ward-Hastelow, Orpington, Kent, UK "DOROTHY" - 1985, 110, V8, CSW __________________________________ ------------------------------[ <- Message 61 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 970211 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]
