    Yes and cucumber and cream cheese sandwiches. When I worked out how to move the clips etc it was not all that long, but with looking for a piece of wood to hold the bonnet open, boiling the kettle, etc. it all adds up.
    Fast Freddie and I are famous for taking about 4 hours to change the engine mounts on the TD5. That did include morning tea and coffee, and we are not rushing. It is the first time we have changed the engine monunts. I/we tend to take our time and do it properly the first time. With the D2a and the Freelander 2, almost everything I do on the cars, bar servicing, is the first time I have done it. I ttake my time and do it properly.
