How about a fixed ladder on the rear and full length tubular side steps? You could get steps that sit over the top of the wheels which might do the job.

Looks like a great project. If you swap the chassis for a nice shiny galvy one, you know it’ll be good for a long time to come. And it looks like the great basis for an overland truck. Let us know how you get on.

If you like the RR, keep it. A 110 is a great tow vehicle but it doesn’t have the comforts of the RR, especially if you’re towing a large caravan around the UK or further afield.

Buy on condition and not age. And check ID numbers and do an HPI check. Landies are very popular with thieves.

Is it new door seal fitted to the roof? This might also be contributing to the angle of the door top if it is. The door seal might not have compressed yet.

I considered it but he’s got it now. I’ll let him do it.

The diesel pump has been checked and the leak is from the main body. It’s getting sent off for repair so I’ll be without the 90 for a couple of weeks. Still, it’s cheaper than a new injector pump.🙂

I had similar on a set of door tops on my series 3. I gently bent in the threaded rods that fix into the lower doors until the door top sat flush against the roof panel.

Hi and welcome! Make sure you invest in lots of security measures. Landies are very popular with thieves. +1 for pics!

Which ones? Any pics?

Just checked and it’s sold…

Hi and welcome! My 90 gets called various names, depending on if it starts or not…

Hi and welcome! I used to live not far from Basingstoke. Lots of good lanes that way too.

Really sorry to hear this. I’ve bought quite a bit off of them over the years… 🙁🙁

An attempt at taking the ID of the 88 to save on VED by the previous owner. But did you buy it as a 90 or a series 3? Have you got the details of the seller to pursue a claim?

Hi and welcome! Good collection of landies. Where in Somerset are you?

I read this in LRO many years back. A pity as it looks like it would have been a great engine.

Hi and welcome! Don’t forget to add some pictures of your landy collection!

Hi and welcome! If I was in the states and after a defender, I’d go for a V8 over a Tdi. As for price, I can’t say. It would be an idea to see if you can find any similar vehicles for sale for comparison. You can convert it to LHD but again, at a cost. Let us know what you decide and post...

Hi and welcome!
