Am I a full member now then.

Just been to Bury to pick up mi landy, my first landy.
Had the benefit of towing it back on a transporter trailer with a disco, the owner was a young lass without trailer priveleges on her licence so I drove it, suprised the 300 struggled down to first on a couple of hills on the m61.
Anyway its a 109 lWB with a land rover petrol engine, and a camo paint job, whih I havent decided on yet, think it might be attacked with a roller and be done sand beige.
Photo when I can get it to work if anyone's interested.

oooh sounds good, photos please

lol welcome to the 'oh ffs whats wrong with it now' club hope you like having a close relationship with the contents of your tool box and the underneath of your Landy

Yep me and toolbox's have been inseperable for a long time, theres one on the floor here now , I just bought some sockets today.

iv owned a fair few cars but never has one taken so much time its like been married twice every couple of months ill spit dummy out and sayin, had enough its goin and ill be looking on ebay to see what there fetchin but when it come down to it just cant bare to part, no takes the notice now any way said it that many times.

My old landy fresh on the drive.
The bull bars are for sale if anyone likes them, as is the hinged spare wheel holder on the back door, and maybe shortly the 2 1/4 petrol engine.
oh yeah its called custard.

Give that a VERY thorough looking over, it looks like it may be ex-mil; NOT due to the paint scheme, but bonet should be the round edge 'deluxe' version on a late 109, and the high mount fixed rear windows in the sides were, I THINK the ones used by the military on the FFR models.
First thing to check is the chassis no; if it IS ex MOD, then that plate may NOT be age related, but year of de-mob, could be an older vehicle.
Second, suggestion is if it was FFR it would have beeen 24v, and with the mil-spec convoy lights switches and everything else you may have some major wiring hassles lurking in there, with original army wiring and re-wiring for different equipment, then owners converting it from 24v to 12, and doing thier own rewiring.
However..... congratulations..... should keep you busy for a bit!

pretty sure its not ex mil, its a shed.
no sign of convoy light switches, but there are issues with wiring, foretunately not the original wiring the crap the previous owner put on which is gonna be chopped out, I'll check the number now before I'm off to work, i presum its on the bulkhead o/s.
T
Dont think so teffy the chasis noumber starts sallbcah, the side windows were added by the previous owner and the bonnet has special hinges that looks like they were fitted new, so its a replacement.
its just any old shed, it does have wiring issues though, the previous owners stuff its gonna be chopped out, the original loom is not so bad.
Might be off to fenby;s soon to collect his tranny gear, busy workin all this weekend to pay for it.

Pitty, theres a nice ex-mil SII 109 'shed' round the corner from me on an 'A' plate.... but tax exempt! Was worth a look.

looked at all sorts of stuff like that teffy, but I didnt like pulling this thing from Bury, no chance I'd go as far as yours, even if the thing was legal you never know if you'd get back, this was local, the right place and the owners are sound, even if their repair skills are not.

its got a cracker of a snorkle on it and a high rise exhaust

And you thought you were clever, you missed the wood burning stove in the back complete with chimley.

Landy looks better without the silly scaffolding on the front.
How do I access the for sale section on here.
