It's not the Horsham Vogue SE Clive. This one's up in Morat country.
I did message the Horsham guy when he first started advertising his VSE bits a few months ago, but he didn't bother to reply, so I moved on in my quest.
If you do go over there, and it still has a tailgate badge, let me know what he wants for it. I'll pm you my mobile number. Dental floss, or fishing line, should cut through the adhesive
A bit of crack filler, mostly where I had to repair a hole on the side. That side grain is hard to match.
Mainly used a scotch pad to abrade a layer of whatever the leather equivalent of the gel coat is. That got rid of most of the fine surface cracking.
You think it's labourious masking the steering wheel, try masking the piping on the seats :)
Refurb your existing seat base yourself and you can go from this:
to this:
It's very rewarding isn't it?
You can, part numbers as in these examples:

Or you can just find some plastic based hose and fit it with hose clips as long as it doesn't kink. Rubber water hose goes manky very quickly in oil.
EDIT didn't see your last where you used hose pipe :)
Theres a breather hose on the other side too...
Both of mine must be about to seize up then
Neither use any between oil changes. 2000 miles on blue one, about every 500 on black one so far.

Hasn't got the mirror on the ceiling though
Your pic doesn't work!
IAC valve looks like this one without the red cover. Don't dismantle, just clean the bit in the airflow.
Rubber pipe turning to mush is a crankcase breather pipe, I imagine. If air leaks in there, as it's downstream of MAF, that will cause running issues.
So many questions.... :)
Colour match is spot on for the non faded (hidden from sun for 15 years) surfaces and virtually indetectable where I've touched in door cards etc
Yes I did
Only the ones I haven't done anything with yet- and the ones that are plastic rather than leather
It's looking good BPSM
As for the handbrake gaiter, it comes off complete with the switch panel. Handbrake grip thing is just pushed on/ pulled off, but it's a tight fit
The Nano does that, and a whole lot more!
I don't really know how long it'll take for the systems to fully adapt as I suppose it depends how far out they were in the first place. I've always had the means to reset them, so have never had to wait.
If you're sure that the throttle valve is closing fully when your foot is off the throttle (make sure you've got the correct amount of free play in the cable- see pic) and you want to tinker with something you could give your idle air control valve a clean. They do get gunked up after a while.

Lol. You are prepared to go to extraordinary lengths to get a badge arent you.
It's become an obsession :(
Finally...
I've tracked down a Vogue SE tailgate badge. The downside is that it's still attached to a 2002 Vogue SE Olso Blue lower tailgate and the breaker won't take it off, as he says he can't without damaging the badge!
Obviously negotiations are still going on (!) and I don't want to pay carriage on a tailgate I don't need (both of mine are near mint and the wrong colour).
Before I pay for a tailgate and tell him to take an angle grinder to it, cut out the lump of steel with the badge on and post it to me, does anyone actually need a tailgate?
You can have it for the cost of the carriage as long as you remove the badge with loving care and post it on to me...

... Is there any software free or affordable for our period of Range Rovers like testbook that one can get hold of ? I have the free EAS software from USA which has allowed me to keep the suspension ok....
EASUnlock V4.0 is said to be quite good in terms of software. Costs money though
Most of the regulars on here use the Nanocom Evolution (standalone). Whether you think it's affordable depends on how much disposable wealth you have :)
A litre per day?!
In how many miles?
I'll rephrase that so it makes sense- over what distance?
Does the Dutchess leave a puddle when she's standing still?
Gordonjcp knows the man who does :)
I've messaged him about the problem this morning

Hi Familiar friends - I know it is not the forum I'm normally on but I can't get onto my Alesi LPG problem forum (called Opening Time!) I get a server error 505 - that is on my Opera and google chrome. I can see them to start but the error comes in when I sign in - any ideas please - expect the system is fed up with me !!
It's not you. The server's been a bit wobbly for the last 20 minutes or so. Comes and goes...
