It's with a mechanic at the moment and it looks like it could be the prop shaft. Fingers crossed it's not the gearbox.

Heard back from the garage today - driver's side front wheel bearing seems to be causing the racket.

That's good news! An easy fix!

See the Big Jimny Store for the keenest price on the bearing.

It came down to the brushes (?) on the axles being dry, so an oiling and all seems OK now. Cost me just £80 instead of the monstrous sum I thought it would B)

The mechanic said he would do the welding for fifty quid, so I will book that in soon.
