Welcome :)

Already got one. ;)

Cheers ta. :)

If that's "beaten to hell" fekk knows how you'd describe mine. o_O

True! Momentarily distracted by the thought of 'only a tenner.'

Don't think I'd be particularly fussed about looking like a wannabe if it helps avoid a crash or incident on a dark rural road. Price of beacons not an issue when you buy 'em at the car boot, yellow light bar for a tenner going from regular car booter. Magnetic lamps ain't going to work but a...

Nice thread! Really putting the effort into this restoration :) Those old trucks in the pics look great. I loved Fred Dibnah's old red Series II. There's an article on it in the link below you might like but the restorers went for a new galvanised chassis for his - and whacked in a V8 :eek...

Does anyone have yellow flashing emergency light bars or lamps on their LR when it's normally in domestic use? If so, had any problems with using them, been pulled by the plod for having them on a non-recovery/commercial vehicle for example? Considering fitting one for break down/accident etc...

'ey up Who's all going to LZ12 from the North East then? See skint-as-usual's goin, anybody else?

Welcome :) Nice looking vehicles you're having to choose between!

Just seen your reply, you shouldn't have the same issues with rust over there! Both nice looking vehicles and lucky if you can afford regular maintenance and replacement parts. I'm not sure what to say about the mods on the black one but it definitely sounds like a more comfortable looking ride...

Agree with james and discokids. A 90 (or an older Defender) can be fun but: unless you replace the seats, uncomfortable on long distance combined with a bumpy ride; unless you add sound proofing or ear defenders, your head/ears will be bludgeoned and don't waste your money putting a sound system...

Welcome :)

Welcome :)

Great to hear you got it back. :)

Welcome :)

Cheers to swoggin for the initial info in thread. From experience I can say it's not just the shiny shiny that gets nicked as my 90 could only be described as 'agricultural looking' on a good day (I just keep saying it's a work in progress :rolleyes:). If they want it they'll try to take it...

A 90 at the moment, have had two Series III 109s in the past. :) Watched a fantastic tv 'survival' series (not the normal run of the mill pants reality stuff which makes me want to launch the tv at the contestants) last year called 'Alone' which was filmed on Vancouver Island; pretty...

Welcome, What a fantastic part of the world to live in (if you've got thermal underwear!). Not normally a Freelander fan but very interested to see what you do with it for a trip like that. Pics would be great. :) p.s. Any more poop hits the fan globally can we (2+cat) come live with you! I'd...
