Hello all, I recently purchased a 1976 series 3 for the purpose of a trip in Sep.

Me & 3 others will be leaving London bound for Luxembourg (Day 1) then Lux to Paris (day 2), I will then drive the landy back to London as I plan to keep the car post event.

I have already completed my first 200miles back from Somerset with little problem.

No doubt I will be peppering the boards with questions pre event to ensure it'll be ready for the trip.

I need to bolt in some seats in the back, sort out a leaky diff, replace the rear screen (its scratched Perspex) and generally make sure I am ready for eventualities

Work completed prior to me purchasing the car are:

New brakes + solenoids
New Shocks
New 1/2 chasis
New Lights / indicators (Disco alt + halogen)
2/3 gear syncro fixed
new floor, front & rear

I will get some pictures up later

Ta for now
Jerome
 
Bring good earplugs ;) I drove my series 330 miles home and regretted not having my proper ones with me
 
Just a little update, the trip was completed.

884 miles with Zero problems, if a little slow. I bought some matting from Drew and the noise when loaded was not that bad.

Now to fit a Rover V8 to really get it singing..
