Series 3 Its finished.........Sort of!

Hi everyone,

After telling myself I would never buy another landy (S2 and S3 owned previously) I crumbled and purchased an S3 in September last year. Unfortunately this one was by far my worst purchase having been owned by the same chap for 15 years who seemed to have a habit of tinkering/modifiying without having a clue what he was doing.

After 6 months of fixing someone elses mistakes spending over £2K+ in parts/panels/equipment/bills it is sort of finished. Its not going to win any concourse events but its usable, rock solid and now sports a roughly rollered RAF satin blue paint job.

Time to get some laning done

Looks great! Series 3, 2-tone paint, galvanised bumper, spare wheel on the bonnet. Marvellous

Hold onto this one! Third time lucky. Nice straight looking landy.

Looks good definitely a keeper! How are you finding the original wing mirrors? Toying with changing mine to same but some say they are poor

I have those mirrors on the s1, they are ok but they can't compete with the bigger door mirrors.

lovely truck, I wouldn't want a concourse one, be frightened to drive it in case I marked it

Have to agree. Look good from the outside but they are not great for everyday driving.
