Years ago had a 110 with transfer box from 90 so would do 60mph flat out great for towing 3.5 tonne. Did a round trip on motorway of 200 miles foot to the floor when I got back had a speeding ticket 3 points and a photo of generator. Been through 50 mph road works :biggrin:

Over the course of 3 years i did many projects just south of Oxford. The longest stint was 4 weeks commuting daily 120+ miles each way in a 300tdi 90 with the saving grace of GKN overdrive.

I never had any issues, just too noisy usually from having to open the front vents.

 

I now have a Tdci 90 and it goes wherever I have to, including a few decent day trips to Scotland and back of 10 hours plus. The six speed box does help, but I'd much prefer a 110 utility where you can get the seat back to something like comfortable, however they like fuel too much for my pocket.

 

I'm 6' 4" and packing well too many pounds, and had to laugh at the Security guy at a place where we've been working recently

He blurted out one morning "what time of the morning do you get up to start putting that Landrover on!":biggrin:
