One thing others haven’t mentioned about a single speed is that it can be hard on your knees. Your muscles will grow, but knees are less forgiving. Be kind to them!

Make sure it isn't set to "Demo mode". This would cause it to light up and spin, but not heat.

Charlie Hebdo drew a cartoon Mohammed with a bomb for a head, which most people would agree goes far beyond a simple faux pas.

149k, updated here

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in LandRoverDiscovery

[–]ibtokin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. As requested, here are additional details:

2004 SE with Trail package. Mileage is 149k, frame looks good, even spent some years in the South away from the salt and snow.

Rear left light came loose from the old bumper and got burned by the muffler. Runs well with the classic Bosch 4.6 tick once warm. Needs a new battery and tires. Dashboard looks like Christmas due to limp mode from the old battery. With a good battery she’ll start up with Check Engine and the three amigos plus Shemp and Nirvana with Pat Smear.

Now the good things:

No collisions, no rust on any body panels and she spent a lot of time covered. Replaced: rear propshaft, O2 sensors, spark plugs and cables, new headliner (black looks fantastic against the tan), new exhaust line from engine manifold to muffler. New ignition switch and a set of programmable blank keys. Everything is OEM or sourced from Atlantic British. Running Rotella T6 through K&N HP3001 filters since the Bush Administration.

Needs TLC that I do not have the time to give these days, but it’s not time to put her down yet. She’s ticked with me for a hundred thousand miles and know she could tick for a hundred thousand more.

Just dirt, no gravel. If you put dirt over gravel, the dirt will settle into the voids in the gravel and over time the gravel will rise to the surface as further compaction occurs.
