Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

If you need to go off road, get a Land Rover. They are renowned as the best off road vehicle ever. Indeed most of them seem to be off the road more than they are on it

If you go for an original Defender, avoid the V8 because they have a consumption issue worse than a house with Oliver Reed, Keith Moon, Harry Nilssen and Ozzy Osbourne living together.

hurhurhur.

i also just noticed that the 'similar threads' is headed 'Compromising functionality for aesthetics'... how apt.

Heated seats, and snow tyres for Sweden. Ask Large Furry. It's all the same right ?

Blondes and Trees.

one i'm going to see on Sat is an overhauled G230, 4 Cyl. petrol, full leather interior, looks pretty clean and is even in my fave shade of green... in the middle of nowhere but just hope some fucker doesn't get in there before i can go pick it up!

if somebody does I may well cave and buy this.

equally impractical and from the photos he sent, massive questions about how many pieces the chassis is in fact made out of. but fucking A it looks like a sexpiss lolipop on wheels.

in other news, raced the last couple weekends. cars stagnating at 11.35@119mph with 1.54 60 ft. after some calc's the convertor is slipping 11-13% up top. so auto guy is pulling it out and getting it re-tweeked and re-stalled down to 4000 rpm.

Lol, what do you do when your Land Rover get's stuck?

Call your mate in his Toyota Land Cruiser

Whats the point of buying a Gwagen when Unimogs exist?

That's enough of the naysaying now, he's made up his mind-run along....

will actually see what the Gelandewagen is like on saturday. it might have car aids, who knows? haz leather seats though.

and that yellow beamer is still lusty.

Its a V8, lots of power and Torque

If you go landie go for the diesel as the torque try get a TD5

Use the Landies winch :P

Or if you get stuck call your mate in the scammell.

Would orange wheel centres suit it better, maybe little quarter bumpers on the front?

G wagon is used by the scandawegians military as well as certain landies. I would say the Norwegian radio landie would be best as they are preped for the cold.

Don't forget the second set of rims for studded tyres. If no studded tyres you will be liable for any accident even if not your fault and its a fine and vehicle impoundment.
