Just got a 50 year old 110. It's been a dream of mine to own and rebuild a 110 from as far back as I can remember....always loved them. My mechanic builds racecars and I have very basic knowledge of cars... but that's all about to change. This may take me years, but I am SO excited just to finally have this old girl. She has very little rust, and the engine is actually running, if you can believe it(I don't know if it is the original... doesn't matter bc I am changing it) Just subscribed... no one here really does 90/110 rebuilds (at least when I first wanted to do this years ago), there are a few now as people are finally seeing the value in these... but no enthusiast clubs.
Want to start a club along the lines you've suggested :) Just watched this from start to finish and its given me an appetite to do something similar. About to do a 110 restomod myself. Mike :)
I've always said Landrovers are "Classless'.... Nobody can judge you when you drive a Landrover. Even the queen used to drive a Defender around Windsor
When you were over heating on the mountain and you had your hood open.... I could tell your Belt is loose... this will cause your water pump to not pump enough coolant around. Adjust your belt and you will see it cools better and your battery will charge better. Cheers
Dave, you know I ‘love’ ❤ all that you guys do at Mahker, but this is thee BEST episode you’ve ever produced…of course it’s featured a Military Defender, (although not a Wolf, which you know I evangelise about), I’m desperate to do some rallies like Scram etc. I’ve been slowly upgrading as much as I can myself…I just need a lottery win to get you to finish ‘Project Darwin’ off for me !
Thanks. Would love to be able to do that for Dave but that episode is a compilation of almost a years worth of footage and took four days to put together. The build take anywhere from three months to a year to complete in some cases so we just wouldn’t be putting any content out if we did it this way. We’re harvesting footage of each build now so that when they are finished we can put a video out like this and in between it’ll still be the weekly updates from the workshop so there is regular content. Thanks for the feedback
Sad to see how in Morocco the asphalt is reaching every single village... I'll say it's good for the people who live there, but for us is not the same. I also drove that road in 2019, from Kalaat M'Gouna, through the Valley of the Roses, we reached that mountain pass, Tizi n' Ait Hamad, (more than 3000m) and in fact that road crosses 3 mountain passes and all of them around 3000m high and that road finishes in a place called Tabant (we saw something super nice there, don't know if you saw it too, next to the road, in the village)... we went in 2019, october, temperature was nice, offroad because there was no asphalt, and driving a Dacia Duster 4x2, was super fun and the car very capable through some snow... I also own a 90 300Tdi and a 110 Tdi200... A 200 is a very reliable engine, but of course is not a high rpm engine, more a torque engine, so high speed, no bueno, amigo. Anyway, thanks for sharing the video, was super entertaining. Keep up the good work. Don't be like Dave!
Nice job. I've been running 110s in deserts since the 80s. Couple of questions. What have you got in the rear diff? Did you put an ATB in the centre diff? And are you running a cooler for the gearbox? Did you upgrade the fuel filter/separator? Lastly how much fuel can you carry.? Cheers Pat
I'm a bit puzzled by the overheating. I've driven my 200tdi around the Sahara for years without overheating. Really cool running engine. Is the injector pump tweaked? How much power is it making?
Hi Dave great to see the full video of project Rodent. The wide wheel arches you fitted can I ask how far they stick out from the bodywork and do you supply them and how much? If you don’t supply them can you let me know where you got them from? Keep up your awesome work and videos of it. Love seeing them cheers buddy 👍🤙

@@Mike7O7O I've since found some defender clubs on Facebook. Most are in Europe/England. I live ALL the way in the Caribbean.
Lovely to see all the footage and back-story together! Breathtaking scenery.
Thanks!
This was the best watch for a Sunday morning ! I’m hooked as I d just bought a 110
Good to have you along for the ride. We do a video from the workshop almost every week
This what land rovers do, they create harmony between nations, and show we are the same and equal. FAB video MAHKER
Thank you. We agree

I'm currently finishing a 1987 110 V8 to 300tdi conversion myself, nearly complete. Bought a Demand exhaust, lovely piece of hardware, can't fault it.

Fingers crossed for you
Sweet adventure!!! Thanks for the ride brother!!!
Awesome thanks
What’s the BM engine going to be like on other countries less refined fuel? The 200tdi is perfect for throwing many different grade fuels in.
As long as you run two fuel filters (and probably a water separator) it’ll be absolutely fine, it will just detune itself
Absolute beast of a truck! Well done troops. I’m looking at getting myself a 110 soon 🤙
Thanks. We’ve got a very similar build currently going through the workshop which we’ll bring updates soon
@@wearemahker looking forward to it!
Great video, loved watching from the beginning to the end 😀
Awesome thanks glad you enjoyed it
What an adventure.
Absolutely loved the video
Thanks so mich
Best episode yet. Prefer if the focus of an episode of kept to a single vehicle.
Thanks. Would love to be able to do that for Dave but that episode is a compilation of almost a years worth of footage and took four days to put together.

Brilliant vehicle !
Congratulations and well done!
Would have been nice to seen more of your journey.
How did the good old series do ?
If you flick back through our videos there’s one with all the Scram Africa highlights
well done guys...
Brilliant. Did you have to take rations with you or was you eating as you go in local places?

Dave answers this in our latest Q&A - thanks!
I would love to do this one day
1:46 "Perfect patina" - did any of the perfect patina survive? ;p
Amazing 🤩
Thanks 🤗
BEST episode
Thank you so much
I'm a bit puzzled by the overheating. I've driven my 200tdi around the Sahara for years without overheating. Really cool running engine. Is the injector pump tweaked? How much power is it making?
Did you size the rad for the altitude?
You should have a look at Itchy Boots in Morrocco
Hi Dave great to see the full video of project Rodent. The wide wheel arches you fitted can I ask how far they stick out from the bodywork and do you supply them and how much? If you don’t supply them can you let me know where you got them from? Keep up your awesome work and videos of it. Love seeing them cheers buddy 👍🤙
Hi Brian I will make that video happen for you 😎 the arches are plus 30mm longer than Standard, I can supply you for sure.
hi Mahker, what is the advantage of the alisport top breather over the standard one? keep watching those fab inspirational videos from MAHKER
Nice to se a 200tdi getting a bit of love, but sadly there is only so much you can get out of them. Great adventure though.
Have you seen our latest video? She’s got some upgrades….
@@wearemahker would love to swap my 200tdi for something like that, if only I had pockets that deep :-)
When my lottery win comes in I know where to send my rusting old pickup😁
We’re ready and waiting for you
We are all dreaming for that lol
Top vídeo!!
👏👏🤝👍
ThAnks!
Land rover with its bonnet up...toyota drives past fully laden with ease! 😂
Shhhhhhh
I’d like to see either a 90 or 110 with a Toyota 79 series D4D V8 motor in it.
Get it built ,,,
I love my landy but after watching this video the decision is for a long trip is to take the land cruicer
this guy is more worried about his little chasis plates and badges than the actual vehicle lol
Excuse me can you please expand ? I thrive off negative comments ?
How much does it cost to get a 110 with a BMW straight six diesel roughly?
Allisport intercooler?
You guys just take the Pith...
What exactly broke down on the "Rodent" after Morocco?
Morning all we lost was 1 core plug due to overheating and pushing the 200tdi to hard on the Way around.
OY mayt me bosses er’n Utah wanme tuh swap an engine on wunnuh these. Wish I could understand a word you’re saying 😂
The patina didn't stay for long then
What size tyres are those
Could you please add English subtitles 😂
😂😂😂
Australian Perentie or nothing...
What foreign accent does he have? I can’t understand his foreign accent.
Wow! it went from Okay to Amazing! I love it. I can ride it all day.
