• Inspired by Dammit's recent spending on his 911 I have traded up my S123 for a money pit of my own. What could possibly go wrong?

  • Love these, any more pictures?

    Happy to oblige. A couple from the advert:

    Good points

    • Not too rusty
    • Electrical things work (windows, electric leather seats, sunroof, original stereo, air conditioning etc).
    • Engine and drivetrain (3.9 V8 and auto box) are smooth and powerful despite 202,000 miles showing on the clocks.
    • Headlining does not resemble a collapsed tent.
    • FSH to 160k and generally decent condition inside and out.
    • New tyres all round.

    Work done so far:
    -PAS fixed (new lower steering shaft and universal joints fitted). Steering was dangerously stiff/notchy.

    • Missing bumper corners replaced.
    • Oil and filter change.
    • Carpets shampoo'd.
    • Expansion tank and cap replaced to ditch aftermarket rubbish.

    To do:

    • Heater matrix replacement (dash out fun!).
    • Replace front driving lamps.
    • Possibly ditch clear headlamp lenses for period correct originals.
    • Feed leather.

    I could be tempted to go for a simpler backdated look with silver rostyle steel wheels, an early metal grille and no front spoiler. Thoughts?

    Marina door handles?

    Yes, Marina door handles! As also seen on the Lotus Esprit and Reliant Scimitar.

    Ask Minkfarmer. His was marvelous.

    I wonder what became of pigfarmer and his Range?

    Rad.
    Or you going to be Jason Statham or Stephen Graham?
    Or that one from Layer Cake?

    Out of those three

    Although I don't think we could be much more different in reality.

    Layer Cake featured a P38 rather than a 'classic' Range Rover I think?
