Thought i'd take the chance to introduce myself as i haven't actually done it yet. I'm Sam, i'm from right on the Aberdeen City/Aberdeenshire border and i've not long bought my first Land Rover! It's something completely different for me as i'm used to a Drift/Show Lexus IS200 SE that would scrape on the slightest bump in the road, I'll try find a photo somewhere. I'm also one of the Admins of the Fresh Auto Collective car club based in Aberdeen, we hold a monthly meet for all our car enthusiasts to get together, there's always a great variety of stuff, if anyone's interested give it a search on Facebook! Now, as some of you might have seen in previous posts, I was a bit unsure what route I wanted to go down with my new purchase...
It's a Black, Auto TD5 Metropolis. Black leather interior, 7 seats, 106,000 miles, Differential Lock, Sat nav, parking sensors, everything works as it should! All the security codes work fine too. I had planned on going all out with the off-road spec, but I don't think I can bring myself to do it, it's way to nice, I wouldn't want to ruin it. It does have a few niggles, but that's expected with a 13 year old car. The only issues that I really need to look at is it hunts for revs on idle and that the secondary foglights/spotlights don't seem to work. The underside is also rust free at first inspection which is obviously a relief... Especially after buying a car unseen... I know, terrible idea haha. Long story short, the plan is to clean it up, get her immaculate, show standard, some nice BFG All terrains, and a subtle lift whilst keeping the air suspension as it all works as it should!
