There were several J**P copies, the Jago was based on an old Mk1/11 Escort. And some were based on common 4x4s.
I'd have to search through old listings to see if I could recognise this one. It DOES look a bit like my mates, they may have had more than one version, they often did.
For instance, my Marlin could have been based on a Triumph or a Marina, or a Cortina.
The problem nowadays is finding rear wheel drive donors. Hence many went to BMW underpinnings.
In fact peeps with classic cars, can be seen to be searching for old kit cars to obtain spares for their vehicles.
Lr did the same. After the success of the Freelander they based all future lr's on that. Independent suspension. Got rid of the rusty chassis in favour of a unibody construction. They even put a 2L 4 cylinder hengin int latest phev range rover anorl. Makes sense really. When yer gottid perfection yer can't do betterer so copy it.
 
I didnt win my towable wood chipper bid up from 1300 quid to 2400 one other bidder when it
goes to the last few mins if someone bid it would extend the bidding my 10 mins, I didnt know
this until I got outbid, so played the game then I let it go. Final price was plus vat & 15% buyers
fee. This was way too much for an unknown machine.

Got a chance of a local defender tomorrow though. :D
Have you tried using a "bidwatcher" program (if it was and e-bay item)?
I use a program called Jbidwatcher and it lets you set your max-bid and sticks bids in right up to your max bid in the closing moments of the auction.

I have won several items thisa way, and avoided "win at all costs" fever ;)
 
J**ps are ok, Barbie has one ... :D:D

Is that why they discontinued it :p

Yep. There's more money in selling and repairing the other vehicles they manufacture, so the FL2 stopped. They also took out some of the Freelander's reliability in order to increase sale of parts later in life. But the FL2 still lives on in spirit... independent suspension, unibody build and go anywhere ability on and oft road.

If they had of kept FL2 manufacturing going it would have led to the demise of all the other vehicles they make.

Tis true eye tells yer.
 
Don't they still make those 'Teasmade' thingies like we had in the 70's? My parents had one so they could have a lay in on a Sunday!
I made my usual mistake, i.e. i replied without reading the whole thread so far!
So Said the same thing.
We got ours from an auction, £20 and it looked nearly unused. Works lovely!
 
The head of my local council has had to resign over misconduct. :rolleyes:
Apparently he was using his position to push through planning applications for family members and "others". :eek:
I wonder if there were any brown envelopes involved?
Local peeps are calling for a government enquiry into corruption.
Just like Scouserland then!:(:(:(
 
It is a camera which plugs into a battery powered wifi box supplied wivvit. You use yer phone to connect to it via wifi to see the camera picture. Yer can also use an eyepad anorl. Eye int gottid one of them but it, or any other tablet screen poking type device like that, that yer can install an app on, and has wifi on it, should wuk. Eye will be puttin up a fred about it as its cheep and value for money. Just need ter film some eggsample vid's.
So you need an "app" etc.
thort this might be the case.
I don't have iPad, Ipod, iPhone, nuffin. so I'll still be looking for a self-contained one.
Hope you have fun with it!:):)
