Hello,
I was given a Jeep Grand Cherokee by a friend and got myself into offroading. The Jeep is not in great condition, and have had no end of gear box and transmission problems. I have decided that I would sooner get rid of it, and move onto a machine built for offroading... a Land Rover Defender. I have always fancied one, and finally plucked up the courage to buy one. However, I'm after any advice or suggestions on what to go for, what to look out for, what to avoid etc. I am far from a defender expert, and a newbie to offroading.
I'm looking to spend no more than £4000. Ideally a SWB.
I have seen two for sale in my area, both 3.5l V8's which look to be in good condition. One hard top and one canvas. One was a 1986 and the other a 1988.
If anybody knows of anything that could be ideal for me, or has any advice, it would be much appreciated. Thanks
