I dont recall that type of steering wheel Martyn, as, I'm only a nipper!

Looks nice to me, colours' of the era, but I cant help myself with shagged old motors!! Or anything thats
shagged or broken ;~)

I like that fact it has a towbar too!

Also, if the steering wheel wasnt gen, it's very nearly super hard to get interior trim for older
Rangies!

I knew that book would come in useful (Original Range Rover -restorers guide
1970-1986 ) the T shape steering wheel looks identical for 71- the only
varience would be a a lucar connector in the column for an indicator buzzer
on the very early ones LOL anaorakaphobia rules

Blokes offered it to me for 2 grand. It has new upper & lower tailgates. He reckons it just needs a
little bit of plating on one inside wing.

Any thoughts?

Hi M8 sadly yes after the divorce settlement I couldn't afford to run Peggy
the fuel bills were crippling and a change of start time meant I was
crawling in rush hour traffic instead of cruising in - lets just say I would
have been ecstatically happy with double figure mpg. Current wheels are on a
Scooby Legacy Estate but I nearly bought a TD Rangie last week only a play
on Jimmy's ramp persuaded me not to - last thing I need at the moment is a
project ( he was asking £800, a little to much imo) still keeping my eyes
open. See you've been busy I'd leave the heat seals winters round the corner
you know

more boats than the swiss navy

If it's of interest our Rangie TD may be up for grabs shortly. 30 plus mpg,
replaced the sills, footwells repaired , front inner wing and new Ally rear
tailgate...and...wait for it...... it's got a tow bar on too! :0) Repairs
were prompted by an early morning side impact so it all got done while I was
at it. Only bits I'm aware of that need doing are Realy on rear wash wipe,
one latch on the tailgate as it's fussy and UJ's on the front prop (which I
have but have yet to find the time to do).

Owned for near enough 6 years and spent enough to feed a small army on it to
get it better than the state it was purchased in.

Too many 4x4's by far!

Oh you wouldn't let it lie would you ;-) you could give me a ballpark
figure but..... as we (me and Gf) are ripping out the kitchen bathroom and
fitting a new boiler - later would probably be better + cos as sure as god
made leaks in landrovers there going to be something that will cost more
than budgeted in that little lot. Glad its got a towbar that other one would
have been ideal for boat launching with the adjustment oh hell I forgot
about the boat I'm renovating and the trailer job which is why I turned down
the other Rangie already got too many projects cooking

I don't Beeelllieve it........... LOL no I'm not in Meldrew mode good un
Lee would have been interested but probably too skint. Now you've got the
space you don't fancy an 18ft speedboat (project) do you? seats 7 at a pinch
double skinned etc etc guaranteed proof against Tsunami's i.e.- we haven't
had one in Timperley since I got it. Ideal for your neck of the woods you
could get knicked for speeding but the Waterways wouldnt have a prayer of
catching you http://www.universalexports.net/Movies/Graphics/8-gl.jpg
