I thought if you alternated btw a lhd and a rhd youd eventually build up the same muscles in your legs instead of having just a strong left thigh from the clutch in a rhd
I spent the best days of my childhood in these...would choose one over a Ferrari...saying that I've never desired a Ferrari anyway!
That is actually the very last Series 3 to come off the production line in 1985...pity it wasn't built for this country...
What has this thread done to me?!
The disco's door ladder arrived yesterday, and I shall be fitting it today. Should be keen as fook but all I've been doing this morning is scouring, ebay, pistonheads, autotrader etc. for series 109 SWs. The bug is back and in force!!
Doing those sums in my head... "if I sell my disco for X and buy a good 109 for Y I'll have Z left over to spend on bla bla bla". Landys are a dangerous business, I'm so easily swayed!
We're thinking along the same lines RS...I wish this guy would give me my refund so I can get searching for the same...I hear they plan to do away with MOT test for classic cars too...the thinking being that people who own them look after them better than other drivers and don't let them get into a dangerous condition..
It would be ideal if that becomes the situation. Although I dare say, that it might bring alot of un-roadworthy classics back onto the roads.
I miss tearing round the countryside, and hearing the noise of an old engine parping away as I push down on the throttle. I miss walking away from my car, and looking back at it, and taking a picture every time I park it.
For what it's worth, if I could do a straight swap, today, of my disco to a half decent 109 SW I'd do it in an instant. lol

You do realise pre-1960 vehicles are now MOT exempt as of a few weeks ago, right?
.....How my girlfriend hated it...
They don't make series landrovers any more.
Girlfriends however....
I'd be happy to simply chug along in a battered old 109 station wagon, looking out the window at the countryside, taking the B roads everywhere, enjoying life rather than wasting it rushing from A to B.
good for you, nice color actually, I will change the tires if it was mine . Have a great time with her
I heard it was being brought in but I thought they said pre 1969..?
