About the Author
Maurice Thurman has been driving Series Land Rovers for over 25 years, with six of those spent in the rainforests of Borneo, driving in remote locations on former logging trails, and two years in Papua New Guinea. These were environments where Land Rover problems required quick diagnosis and often innovative temporary solutions. Maurice has driven various vehicles across the Sahara, from the UK to Pakistan, and across Australia, in between undertaking numerous shorter, less demanding trips. These have enabled him to build up a good working knowledge of hands-on roadside vehicle fault identification and repair.

Written by well-known and respected Land Rover man, Maurice Thurman, author of the 'Essential Buyer's Guide' series, this book is now in it's second edition. It's wording is complemented by colour pictures and offers practical 'how to' advice. It aims to fill the gap between the vehicle handbook and the workshop manual, which it does pretty successfully.- Classic Land Rover.

It covers common problems from engine noises to suspension issues.- Practical Classics. Series Land Rovers are unlike other cars - in fact they are unlike other Land Rovers - and ranking high among their unique attributes is an inherent ability to come up with new ways of going wrong. It doesn't necessarily mean they will not get you home, but it often involves a baffling new noise from somewhere under the bonnet, or an intermittent fault that refuses to put in an appearance when you out an expert mechanic on the case. You might smile and see these niggling problems as part of the joy of Series ownership. Ir you may tear your hair out in frustration. Either way, this little book could prove handy, as author Maurice Thurman describes most of the common faults on Series Land Rovers and explains what causes them and, more crucially, how to put them right. It is just they right size to keep in your Land Rover for when you need it ... and therefore worth the investment. - Land Rover Monthly.
