Hello everyone!
I am as my user name states very new to the landrover scene. For many years I have wanted to own a landrover, and finally I am in a position to do so.
I am currently looking at a 1981 series 3, 2.25 petrol not far from me, rebuilt in 2000 on a galvanised chassis. I viewed it at the beginning of the week, and it seemed to run ok, although I didnt get the chance to check out the 4x4, free wheeling hubs, overdrive etc, but I am going back to with a good friend of mine who is a mechanic on sunday, so hopefully he can give me his opinion on whether it has potential, and carry out a more in depth look at the bulkhead, and common problem areas.
Is there anyone else in the same position, ie new to landys? would be good to share thoughts and views etc!
