Hi Anyone
Im new to this forum - first post. I have owned 4 landys 3 defender 110s and a series 2 LWB over the years. I am planning (dreaming) of an overland in Africa where my Defender 110 V8 currently resides. I had a 300Tdi 110 as an ideal vehicle until Boris resurrected the LEZ - the vehicle is non-compliant and would cost £££££ for me to leave home. So the choices seem to be Disco 1 or series pre 1973 with a rebuild, Tdi engine etc to evade the LEZ cameras, and not be filled with gizmos that could not be fixed in deepest darkest Africa. Im just not familiar with Disco/Defender differences that could swing the argument. Also what about the 90 & a Sankey trailer anyone any experience of problems in sand etc?
Please someone save me wasting more time trying to get these answers!
