hi I'm looking to buy my first land rover and need advise. looking at a 90 up to £6000 need it for work as a joiner but also a toy for camping trips. I'm clueless as to which model etc. Needs to have seating for 3 plus dog
don't want to pay £500 road fund
which model would be best to look at.
any advise would be appreciated
 
Thank you for the reply. not a regular forum user so just finding my way round. looking forward to discovering the joys of ownership
regards Andy
 
Hello and Welcome,

Not sure how large an item you will need to carry on or in a 90 or use for camping, but the load area and volume is actually quite small, A 110 is much larger.
Alos have you tried driving a 90/110 with the third seat occupied, either has to be a small child , or someone you know very well.

Cheers
 
thanks for your response. at the moment I use a ford connect, and manage ok with my job.it would need to have a full roofrack.
the reason I need an extra seat is for my daughter. are the bench seats in the rear ok to use with seat belts?
 
I personally would not recommend the use of a bench seat with a lap belt.

You can get fold down forward facing seats, but they still take up a lot of room. I think you may find a picture on exmoor trim website.

I would suggest going and having a look at a load to see what configuration suits you best.

Cheers
 
A defender is a good vehicle but if you want to use the middle seat for your daughter she will need to be small and under 5 stone in weight or it will get very cosy, however full seat belts in the front are better than lap belts on a bench seat. Good luck in your hunt.
