Hello all,

Here's my first ever Land Rover. Been waiting 30 odd years to buy a teenage wish and am just loving it -
should've done it so much sooner though.

Is it just me or does everyone go underneath with a can of WD40 to stop all the squeaking?

Weeelll, like most girls of a certain age, close inspection shows up the flaws. Touch ups with the wrong white mostly and the odd bubble.
I was lead to believe it's Ivory White, but it's not. Looking into it further and based on it's year, White Arctic is the next purchase..

First of all, spend as much as you can afford on security...

Thank you. Security? You bet - bunch of thieving pikeys down here. I've had an immobiliser fitted already. Guess there must be loads of posts on the pro's and con's of other methods, will investigate.

Wouldn't worry too much about minor body faults, all landrovers will have a bit of reaction on the alloy body. Chassis and bulkhead condition are all important, nice paintwork only gets em nicked!

Funny you should say that. The vendor also had a green TD5 of the same year for not a lot more. It was super up together and I should've loved it. Spent all afternoon driving one then the other and simply loved this one more - probably because it wasn't perfect...
