Hello all - newbie Series 3 Lightweight owner!

Hello all, I'm in West London, just bought a Series 3 1972 Lightweight, just wondering where's best to sell a kidney to fund it! I love this place

Welcome in, pictures or your a fibbing

Hi and welcome!

Selling the kidney will probably be to pay the ULEZ. But until then, we need pics of the new Landy. We like pics…

In (what I thought was a genius move) bought it as it's ULEZ exempt! (unlike my old mazda bongo!) well. done. me! But, just realising that the money I'm probably/ excitedly going to spend on it is going to out weigh that! not. so. well. done. me!!

Purists don't hate me, a 1972, same age as me, with a 2.5l diahatsu (think the jury is out on them), fairey drive and p38 power steering. Twin tanks, 2 x 12v batteries. Was a company mascot for 15 years, so seems to have been quite loved - chassis isn't patched, body ok ( v slight surface rust on body wheel arch surrounds (whats a good fix for that?). Converted from left hand drive.

Had all the pick axe and shovels on - but have taken them off so they don't encourage random vandalism (by me when if it breaks down).

Its got that vice and winch added - apparently by the dutch army, and that air filter/ mini pizza oven too, and those wheels and tyres.

Lots of things to look at/ fix that Flossie and ER1C have already been helping me with - as I'm no mechanic - so already working as my new hobby/midlife crissis, and the kids have already asked about staging an 'intervention' and their inheritance

Hope you like it. (hides behind sofa)

Wow, not what I was expecting!

The genius thing would be to sell one of their kidneys. You’ll get a better price they can see it as a down payment on the inheritance. They only need one each afterall

Looks very smart. Don’t worry about the non-original engine, all landies are different!

Absolutely ace
