|
|
I've done it, gone and bought a Landy, 2.5TD with knackered box (but i have a spare), failed its MOT on a light lens . The bloke owned it for 10 years and decided to buy himself a brand new 2.4 Defender.
Here's some pics of my 90, not bad for £300 i suppose.
Its an 89 'F' , 2 owners, heated screen, loads of new parts inc steering box, brakes, CD player and swing out wheel carrier.
Its painfully slow compared to my Disco but it has character i guess.
Also ongoing is a trialer project for 2008, Mod 2 for me.
See ya'll soon.

I'm using the Landy daily now, not a bad old tug. Roll on summer when i can get the motor swapped over.  _________________ Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience. |

Yes yes..
I'm going to have that built over 2008, can't afford to do it in one hit.
The 90 will be my green lane toy, i'll sell it once the TC is done. _________________ Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience. |
