Hey @GalpinZA , I had very little time and purchased an 110 - check out full details and what happened in this thread: https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/how-bad-are-they-really.305681/page-5#post-3851551 Are you moving to Poland?

Hi all, been quite for the last few weeks as in full swing with the move and getting things setup. To cut a long story short here is the plan... Purchased a Dacia Duster, meets our needs for most of the year and wife is learning to drive it We do need something more rugged and capable, but...

Hey all, thanks for your great replies, I'm not going to give up :cool: I think my main challenge is that I'm trying to fit too much into too little amount of time. PAS, lights, and Sevice really need to be actioned before I take her on such a long journey - I'm asking for trouble not doing so...

Wow, well that was a drive ill never forget! 170+ miles, 4.5h, over an hour looking for non-existent LPG stations what royally ****** me off :mad::mad: Never driven a car of this age or without PAS, so it was an experience - 30mins in on the motorway I was enjoying it, but then hitting smaller...

Ok, so with two 40ltr tanks should get me around 270klm - 1.6k trip to Poland should be 6 refills. Thanks, that's helpful to get an idea!

@waldamar how many miles do you get out of your 120l tank? approx

@waldamar will be sure to get you a finders pint ;) My use will be mostly as a workhorse to get around the local town and to our cottage that only has a mud and gravel road - I have gotten 4 cars stuck up there in the last few months and that's without bad weather or snow! Lel concerns lucky...

Ahh thanks waldamar, i saw the tag - appreciate it. I'm now starting to consider plan B... buy a LHD freelander and drive it over for the wife. Then get a 110 insurance write-off and a galvanised chassis and do a complete bottom up rebuild - guess it's the best way to learn! Just means I will...

The 110 was sold, day before I could get to it - feel like my heart has been broken :( Im back on the hunt again, at least now I know I want a 110. waldamar good point - I have heard rumours that LPG prices may rise in the next few years in Poland, so I guess it's one of those issues where we...

UK, around £700 for the year inc EU cover. I only need it to get the car to Poland, register, etc - then I may exercise my 15 day cool off rights. I believe a valid translated UK MOT doc will be valid in Poland. Plan is... Buy in UK, get Insurance + EU breakdown Get to Poland, translate MOT...

Thanks @DiscoPol, have considered this but a 110 is tempting me....

Thanks both, the more I think about it the more sense a Defender 110 makes, I can justify easier to the wife if we can lug things around in it. Agree with LPG, the 110 is diesel so no help there (from what I understand, LPG is best for petrol engines), we will need a smaller second run around...

Hey Waldemar, Good points, as is a LR best, I'm keen to get something I'll be interested in maintaining - that's what I have been telling the wife! Luckily there is an OK gauge just down hill from us to roll down to and also a more highly rated gauge 15mins away as and when assistance is required

Hi all, Been chatting with DiscoPol and looking at Landy (and other 4x4) for sale in Poland, to cut a long story short the secondhand car market in Poland is a joke and ill be purchasing for sure in UK. After reviewing far too many for sale in the UK I have the following options and looking for...

Thanks Pol, this has been very helpful! Will give you a yell in a few weeks

Thanks Pol, I'll be in Warsaw 14th - 17th, will give you a yell to settle coffee debt owed ;) Few more quick questions.... When making a purchase what documents should exchange hands? What insurance would I need in place before the purchase? Is this even possible? Sounds like the existing...

Ideally a 90 hardtop \ station wagon would be ideal. Oohhh, LPG never crossed my mind, are both of yours LPG? Was thinking of diesel, dont need anything too powerful, will be the local runaround and to the airport now and then. Coffee, yep watch it, may take you up on that!

Hey, thanks Pol I will be in Warsaw in a few weeks for the second part of my wedding, the first part had a little issue! http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/couple-married-hospital-after-groom-6072747 After the Wedding we were going to book the train to Krakow and then hire a car - very...

Hey Pol, thanks for your message. First Landy - Yes Need to buy from Withams - No Moving too - Krosna, not far from Limanowa, hour from Krakow Thanks for your advice, reregistering etc costs I thought maybe an issue. If you have some links I can review would be great. Where are you based?

Hello all, I am planning on moving with my wife (Polish) to southern Poland in the next few months. Where we will be will need a half decent 4x4 and I have been looking at getting a Defender 90 or 110 - ideally something that I can learn to maintain myself, nothing fancy something for local...
