Give me your thoughts..
I have a 1991 110, ex-police land rover, 2.8tdi Isuzu engine, 2" decarbon lift kit, some other really fandoosh bits, fairly straight for age.. but...
1. Its really becoming a bit of a money pit, because I don't have the skills to maintain it myself, so while the parts are cheap, garage bills aint.
2. Its got a nasty tendency to Veer off and wander over 40mph, not good as my main car.
So... Was thinking of getting a shiny new 110 utility County on a lease through my company this is my dilema...
Should I sell the old one or... use the scrap scheme currently running. On any other car I would say yea, take it and scrap it. But I feel a duty to help keep it on the road, or at least make sure it went to a good home... I must be going soft, but I know there is plenty of enthusiasts who would be able to eek a few more years out of it.
Questions...
1. You reckon I can get a few quid for it?
2. Whats the thoughts on the latest Defender, thought the inside was a bit cramped, even compared to my old one, but have not driven it yet.
