RIP old Rangie, you've been replaced!
RIP old Rangie, you've been replaced!
52 plate!
SWEET!
what do ya think of the td5?
i fookin love mine (well did till the stealers hadf it and fooked with the ECU on it)
I like that i do , Roof could do with a lick of paint/T-cut though.... And unless you pressure wash the chassis after launching boats you won't get 15 years!!
How much was it if you dont' mind me asking?
It seems great, I've driven a fair few an this one is one of the hardest pulling I've felt, although the 200TDi Rangie was a lot more refined and definitely used less juice. No doubt it was the insulation etc rather than the engine itself that made the old girl quieter though?
Its got 40k on it, and I'm basically looking for a good 15 years out of it at least, cant wait to start getting it kitted out for a bit of off roading and camping etc.
Is there anywhere with definitive articles on mods like suspension and stuff on the www, or is it just a case of searching the forums?
This is what it replaced, still looked good, but sadly it was teabagged underneath!
teabagged! not surprised if you keep dipping it in the sea :hysterically_laughi
i found mine about 70 miles to the tank full better than me old 200tdi 90 .
this is my new baby :hug: :kiss:
if you scan this forum you'll find most of the advice you need on add ons best to buy a lro or lrm magazines and salivate over the bits in the adverts then ask on here if its any good when you finmd something you fancy
That's a beauty mate, straight panels too!
A kind souls I know elsewhere has sold up and offered me 2 years worth of landy mags for the price of postage, so I'm looking forward to reading up.
I think it will be tyres/wheels first though!
what you using it off-roading and dipping in the sea ?
or just road work ?
if the former i'd get some wheels like ratty on here has (fooked if i can remember the name of um ) they are steel but look like alloys well cool looking too pm him he'll give ya the name of them would love a set myself but with a wife 1 teenager and 2x 90's to support aint going to happen :baby:
Off roading and towing, the trailers will now be getting dipped in the sea on the end of a long rope!
I was thinking of modulars with bfg AT's, but a couple of guys I know swear by MT's, even for lots of road use.
yeah MT's for me they have pretty good manners on the tarmac and very good manners off road have had mine 3 and half years now and still 10mm of tread left on um (do a lot of road work and towing heavy tipper trailer)
only thing with um dont lift off the power in the corners (keep a ickle bit on)in the wet
Great man, thats just what I'm wanting to hear, independent opinions that they are fine on the road.
