Hi folks. New to here and to L200 ownership. Mines an oldie but hopefully a goodie as it's going to be used as a workhorse for my building work and also ferrying the kids on the school run!
Just need to sort a rear storage solution incorporating a sliding bed of some sort, tailgate lock, tidy up the wheels and rusty bits and get some sign writing done!
Not too much then! 😛
Hope the image works too with a link from Dropbox? Or maybe someone could help with this?Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)

Cheers, Robin

Hi rob,

I fitted a tailgate lock on mine from @eagle4x4 ( www.eagle4x4.com )

Welcome...thats the same Truckman canopy as mine

link to Foxy Chris's rear bed storage ... admittedly admittedly for a pram ( 2006-2015 ) but gives you the idea... HOW TO - DIY pull out load tray for under £50

And krutly did a how to for the rear tailgate on a classic too .... How to :- fit a tailgate central locking mechanism

Thanks all managed a quick tidy up of the towbar mount and fitted a rear step up to help with stuff on the racks. Also tried a refurbishment of one of the wheels to see if I like the look...

Cheers. Where would I find out which area I'm in?

@2810robin I'm assuming geographical area , put up the nearest large town to you and your local rep will make themselves know to you

I'm guessing he's probably Midlands being just outside Peterborough ( says in his Bio! ) so @surfer and @Major Malfunction ( more surfers side of the country though...)

Peterborough is about 2 hours from me, the midlands area is huge and as such it's not who is closest but how far you are willing to go.
I am off to @woody13 area next weekend for an off road day in Bradford.
My point being everyone on the forum is a representative and will always go the extra mile to help, and if you or anyone else has an event or problem it's down to the individual to attend or help, so just join in the banter and if for any reason you have a problem give us all a shout, and keep an eye out for any events you fancy having a go at as everyone will welcome all.
