The end is nigh... Mrs C has decided that it's time for an ultimatum.
I bought the LSE last year with the idea of doing the couple of mechanical bits on it then giving it a full tart up and keeping it forever... low and behold the predictions of my wife have come true and i've not spent anywhere near enough time driving it or done a lot to it... I've got three kids!

So she has given me the choice of...
a) Sell the LSE and bank the cash. (Likely pay something off and never see it again)
b) Sell the LSE and buy a Defender 110 that we can all fit in.

I love the dear old thing and it's in such good nick, i also really hate the hassle of selling cars... what to do?

The answer is simple. Keep it. You can pile three kids into it and it will be more quiet and warm.
 
I know... that's what i tell her but it's 5 seats vs. 7+ seats. We had a Discovery 2 till late last year and it was much better for getting the kids in with the dickie seats.
It really has been sat in the car port with only a weekly start up or spin round to show for itself, i can see why she has a bee in her bonnet.

Bees can be dispatched with pesticide, you know.
 
I have had both, 110 for about 15 years, Rrc for a year, both diesel.
I loved the 110 and like the classic.
110 is the one to go for, rrc for fun or backup.
 
well... yeah, i am thinking that might be the way.
I know the LSE model is a bit of a gem so i'll be sorry to see it go.
 
Keep it for the next 6 months while monitoring the way they are going up in value - then ask the missus if ANY bank can match that rate of interest..................................................
