Mine's working, its just not much fun greenlaning on your own.... 
Being on tired, standard suspension and road tyres means it dont like ruts any more and tends to ground out a lot....
I might sell it and move on.

as soon as my motorbike is back on the road my landy is coming off the road and having a major overhaul of the engine, gearbox, axles, suspension, fuel system and electrics so it will be ready for playtime later in the year

Its a 3.9 V8 Discovery ES Spec, Leather M reg
Its pretty good in terms of rust, the floors are solid, the sunroofs dont leak, the chassis is good. has MOT and Tax and nearly new road tyres.
Its a bit scratched up though the laning and off roading, has a very expensive bomb proof steering guard and bulbars with spotlamps
I am going to Billing this weekend with a notice in the window.
I am going to put £1500 ono
Does this sound fair?

I'm not around for a while-can't afford to break anything before Morocco! :jaw:
You met us Herts lot. Well some of us. I didn't realise you'd just got your disco. We hadn't driven most of the lanes we did on Sunday, but we're very well equipped for pretty much anything.
Big word of advise, don't go out alone to lanes that you haven't driven before and know that they're well OK for you vehicle's capability, or it may end in tears. Especially as you didn't have recovery points and road tyres. I don't want to dampen your enthusiasm, just be aware of the risks.
Once you're sorted you're more than welcome to join us anytime.:welcome2:

Alright chaps thought Id check in with evryone and see what yer all up to.Got a new mota yet Stu?
Finally went to some local lanes. Did four during the day and two at night to test my light positioning properly. Went pretty well considering it was just my vehicle and the only evidence of me passing through was a couple of scuffs from my rear diff. I bumped into two guys on quads who mentioned someone got stuck earlier in the day and had to call his wife out =D
