Hi all just thought I would say hello I pick up my 1985 90 tomorrow! And I can't wait! Pics will follow soon!

Abit about me...

22 years old self employed plasterer and plumber/general building.

The landy will only be a toy so have alot of things planned for it. As I have a van for every day use and the use of the mrs focus as well.

I've had the landy lifted 2" before I pick it up and I've also brought a wading kit ready.

Were going to take it to buildwas the weekend for a first play with a few mates in there 4x4's

Sounds good mate.

Hopefully they will soon

Well I've got my landy any way! And I love it! Few small things to sort but should be ok the mrs also loves it! Think she's driven it more than me! She's even pinched it to go to work in! :/
