I thought you'd decided on a TD5 ES spec disco II?

although the 110 is a damned good truck. I still regret getting rid of
mine, although it made sense at the time. nemmind, I've got the SIII now,
which in some ways is even better.

How about a nice red soft-top with an uprated engine ;-)

Mine's up on fleabay now, reserve of £3,500, seems to be getting more
interest this time. Item no. 280017433943.

it's a hell of a nice looking truck, actually - if I had the money and was
in the market I'd buy it.

If some bleeder doesn't buy it, you might be in the market before I
get shot of it! It is an excellent truck, I hope it doesn't go for
£3,500, it's worth more than that but I've just not managed to shift
it yet. No-one's even had a look at it.

I've just had a look at it. Good luck with the sale, it looks great.

Just out of interest, that kind of roll-over bar is that. It's not
standard for a soft top to have one of those is it? Does it attach to
chassis outriggers?

I don't know if it's standard, but I wanted something for the
seatbelts to attach to and also to offer a modicum of protection in a
roll-over. I got it with the soft-top which came from an ex-mil
either series or early 90/100 IIRC.

It doesn't attach to the chassis, it sits on the body capping, with
triangulation struts to the rear, bolted down and inserted into
rivetted holders underneath the body capping. All that came as
standard, it's apparently how it was when it was taken off the donor
vehicle.
