Yeah, I flippin hate landrovers, especially after having 127 crewcabs for line work that were always falling apart. But its like a bug, you always hanker after one, no matter how good the latest jap offering is.

i think your landrover is awesome. have you got a winch on the front?

[madmatt]

Thanks Yep I certainly have! Its hydraulic, there is also an auxilary circuit to run the log splitter.

[bill]

does it tip?

[madmatt]

can we have a seperate thread with full spec of the landrover. As a devotee of all things bearing the green oval (and previously owner of a heavily modded 1963 model) I am always interested to see what people have done to theirs.

Kev.

I'm not a fan of Landrovers, way too much money imo for dreadfull build quality and bugger all spec, I bought a new td5 90 defender, you couldn't hold a conversation with your passenger due to the noise [no engine sound proofing] after 6 months I couldn't wait to sell it.It leaked water, the heater never worked, back door hinges broke, the door latch fell apart daily, the body work looked like a kid had through stones at it due to the rivetts..

 

I wish we could get Toyota Landcruiser trucks in this country!
