Who else has a Landy then?
Who else has a Landy then?
I have had 3 landys 2 died due to rusty chassises (OneTen and S1 disco) and one got stolen (90). Now on a LWB Shogun. Gotta say the Shogun is the better car, but nowhere near as cool or sexy as a Defender.

Re: Who else has a Landy then?
I've had 3, a series 3 88", 2.5td 110 Hi-cap and a TD5 disco.
Miss the Series the most wish I'd never let it go.

Re: Who else has a Landy then?
Currently got a 90 that was used for challenge events.

now it is a soft top

I also have a freelander after having a couple of Discoveries too. My Landrover habit is probably worse than my Motorbike.

One ten Hi-cap, 300tdi for work. N reg, 240,000 miles and used like a LR should be.
Re: Who else has a Landy then?
I've an 88" Series 2A...a part of the family for more than 20 years. Doesn't get used much now, the Transalp's a lot handier,and better on petrol, but I still can't beat the LR for taking rubbish to the tip!
Re: Who else has a Landy then?
I'm on my Third Landy. All have been Ex Military. First was a Series 3 88" Lightweight. On a Q plate and 24 volts. The wiring loom caught fire while I was doing the business with a girl on top of the Battery cover in between the seats. Had to rewire it myself as no electrician would touch it. Sold it after quite a few years service.
Then I got a Series 3 109". She was a good bus but drank petrol like an oil tanker. I laid her up in a garage and she stood for about 10 years. When I sold it I put some redex in the tank, poored petrol straight down the throttle body and attached some jump leads. After 20 seconds she fired up and ran sweet as a nut.
My current one is a RAF 110 Defender FFR. She served in the first Gulf War at Dhahran Airbase in Saudi Arabia. I bought it back in 1998. She is in excellent condition, rust free chassis, bulkhead and footwells. She only does about 300 miles a year now as I hardly use it. Thinking of selling it as its costing a lot of money just to sit doing nothing, but I'm attached to it.
