Hi
As a few of you may know I am thinking of buying a car for doing some off roading and trialing
I have a budget of £3000 max of witch I need the car to be road legal and ready for off roading. From the help I have had so far Ive come to the conclusion of a few cars that would meet my requirements and budget.
I am a bit confused as most of the cars seen on the list above all seem to have pros and cons.
Range Rover classic / bobtail are said to rust a lot because of there age
Land defenders seem to cost a lot more for what you get, and with budget I would get a car with lots of miles on and possible in poor condition.
Dont really know anything about discoveries but as they are newer than range rovers there are less likely to rust.
If anybody has any has anything else that they could suggest for what I want to do it would be extremely useful.
(and yes I have thought about Suzukis but I generally dislike them)
