Not sure at the moment, would like to go.
Would fancy going to that ESP for a tenner!!
But have to pick my dad up from airport at 3pm :-(
Get him to re-direct to the air port next to donnington and pick him up on. The way home
Wouldn't call myself expert by any means, but from research I did before buying my S2a, it's much the same list things as with buying a Defender. But they are much less advanced of course. Key things revolve around is it geniune, as opposed to to modern one on a 'dodgy' V5 to get free tax. Petrol engines run like a sewing machine when in good fettle, transmission noisier than Defender, but wear shows the same signs I believe. Rust as ever is a big issue!
I'm only a few miles north of SG13, and happy for you to have poke round mine (it's solid and not been updated) first if it helps, and if you're desperate could go with you. But I really wouldn't claim to be expert - and wouldn't be much help at spotting flaws beyond the probably obvious!
Thanks for that might take you up on having a look yours, i have looked at another one that has "been renovated" but i think bodged. would prefer an untouched one as you can see whats what.
thanks
