Possibly. Personally I have a wife who hasn't worked in over a decade and a kid but we get by with the P38. Admittedly when I first got it I had some fairly hefty hits on the wallet but it is manageable at the moment. Now, TWO Range Rovers plus a 110 plus a Beamer? Then we'd be seriously f*cked. Add in to that I have had the same car for years so I've ironed out the niggles; Saint tends to fix all the issues, get bored and then buy another one to tinker with!
How many Land Rovers have you had in the past 5 years,
@Saint.V8? Got to be a fair few - plus the Freelander hoax that saw more keyboards fried from spouting tea than a year of lightning strikes.
Well, lets see and I shall start from the beginning I guess (Just Land Rovers I won't go into all the other cars - that is for another day! pictures of them are in my Signature):
Passed my driving test in 1998......
1999-2001 = 1988(E) Range Rover Vogue SE 3.5EFi - Rear cross member and chassis legs rotted out, replaced and then sold on to another enthusiast when I bought......
2001-2004 = 1995(N) Range Rover 4.6 HSE - job changed and driving 100 miles each way to work in a 4.6 was suicide......so I had to sell.
2004-2008 = 1997(P) Range Rover 4.6 HSE - 3 months later I couldn't live without a Range Rover so when the company gave me a car, I bought another as the 'weekend' car. This one I part Ex'd for a 2003 VW Beetle 3.2 RSi for the other half.....
2008-2011 = 1993(K) Range Rover Vogue SE 3.9EFi - With some spare money after we moved and buying the other half her Beetle, I bought this RRC. in Jan 2011 some little **** nicked it and set fire to it......
2011-2012 = 1999(V) Range Rover 2.5 DSE - With the insurance money I bought this one - it was short lived as I was passing a car showroom and saw.....
2012-2017 = 2003 Range Rover L322 4.4 Vogue (LPG) - Part Ex'd the DSE......we all know the sad fate of this one....still not sure what the heck happened!
2014-2016 = 1988(E) Land Rover 90 Truck Cab 200Tdi - Other halfs car, she wanted another kid and a two set lifted off road pick up was not practical so we sold and bought.....
2016-2017 = 1991(J) Land Rover Defender 110 300Tdi - Was a great car. Until the chassis went south (cracked in half). Some little **** had repaired it with filler that had iron fillings in so the magnet test worked - gutted to say the least.
2017-Present = 1988(F) Land Rover 110 300Tdi - Is a great car, it leaks, it rattles and its cold but we love it. Have to sell it to pay my dad back - need to get on with that actually.
2017-Present = 1998(S) Range Rover P38 4.6 HSE (LPG) - Y'all know the saga on this one currently!
2018-Present = 2002 Range Rover L322 4.4 Vogue (LPG) - The other halfs car.....
There has been many 7'er Bimmers, a couple of Jags, a couple of 3'er Bimmers, an Audi 80, a Twin Turbo 3.0 Toyota Supra (pop up lights model) and an Opal Manta fitted with an Opal Monza 3.0 engine (my first car)!!!!
And a number of proper Minis, a Fiat 500 Sport, the Beetle RSi, Mk3 Golf GTi 16v owned by the other half....!
