Im expecting a big repair bill on my landrover soon- after 6 years of it pulling 1.5t-3ton diggers round Dartmoor its never had a major breakdown so reckon its gotta be on the cards!

 

Can't beat a Landrover for hard graft. Don't really give a toss if water comes in through the footwells!

Hi MATHEW what Land Rover do you run there great work trucks thanks Jon

[Matthew Storrs]

Ha ha Hodge, i thought if i expected it i hoped it would never come!

 

Its a 300tdi hicap Jon, done me really well, but Chassis is starting to let it down a bit so may consider a galv one if it behaves itself this year.

Its all about where you get your replacement parts from and if you are willing to do it yourself.

 

Two years back I got a second hand gearbox for £200 for my defender, fitted it myself.

This week I'm getting a replacement transfer box for £80, I'll fit that myself too.

 

Given the abuse my landy gets and a hap hazard maintenance schedule I think it does me just fine.

£5k on a tractor gearbox,dont think the mulcher & a lad using the rangechanger as a gear on the road did it any favors

[Stephen Blair]

£4K on a new engine, gearbox and clutch for a Mog .

£3750 for a new brain for a valmet 8950.

 

Best vehicle loss was £20k in a year on a Iveco Daily 4x4 .
