Noob needs buying advice

TheDove · Aug 11, 2008

Hi fellow forumites !

I'm new to the forum and would like to pick your brains for advice please. My good lady and I want to by a used Landy - Most likely this will be a defender as, in the main, we want it to transport bikes, camping gear, wood, wellies etc rather than using our car - which normally looks like a skip outside a fire damaged Millets !

We also thought that it may be possible on occassion to jump in with some of said gear and stick a blow up mattress in the back rather than setting up a tent - so, (at last !) here is the question - are 90's or 110's big enough in the back to sleep in ? I don't mind removing the second row of seats in a 110 County as it's probably a station wagon we would go for rather than solid sides.

A dormobile would be great but expensive and we dont need that kind of functionality all the time.

Best thing i suppose is to go and see some and have a lie down inside but as with most of us time is limited !

Looking forward to your expert opinions !

Regards

Craig

Generally they make rubbish dogging wagons, as the load bay is too small with the seats up in a station wagon and van sides aren't much better as no-one can see what yer up to

Good for picking up wood and towing trailers though...

Yes there is room to sleep in a 110csw. You can buy reclining sleeper seat kits for em too but they are bloody pricey.

Or just chuck a sheet of ply across the top of the seats and stick your airbed on top of it.

on what grounds ?

no court in the land would convict him just because he had his keys with him

Having his keys aparently proved he had an intention to drive his vehicle, i thought he was taking the mick when he told me, but it was genuine. proves what a mad place we all live in.
