When I posted those pics, I realised that most of them were taken in about 2011, so as the 90 was in the shed for a few maintenance things, I thought I would get a few updated pics. Not changed all that much, electric fans are gone, steering guard gone, bullbar is back.





It certainly hasn't improved cosmetically either, more scratches and dents, but I do think that should be considered as a fine patina in the case of classic off roaders:

I like that! Looks a real straight honest old 90, in my favourite colour too!

Thanks! :) Which is your favourite colour, blue, white, black, yellow, or rust? :confused: :D


Seriously. though, it has been a fantastic vehicle for me, as I said before, the previous owner had it for fifteen years, he kept it completely standard, apart from a few checker plates and so on, and he serviced and maintained it by the book all those years. :)
When I got it in 2008 I went right through it, replaced everything worn, complete new suspension, welded in a door pillar, new turbo, IP, serviced injectors, everything I could find.

Since then it has just been used on the farm, laning, and local driving. Touch wood, I have barely laid a spanner on it, except for the usual oil changes and other maintenance jobs. I also used it for towing trailers for four years, until I got the Disco, and was able to retire the 90 from that job.

Nice 90, but christ them newest pictures are huge :eek:

Yes, sorry about that! :eek:

Filled up my photobukket account, so I thought I would try imgur, seen a few peeps on here use it. First pics I have posted of it, not sure why it doesn't resize like pb seems to :confused: I am a bit of an IT dinosaur, I am afraid :eek:

Yes you're not the only one :eek:
Lucky I even know how to use photobucket to be honest.
Never tried imgur either, just opened another pb account, which I now have 3 of :eek:
 
Yep it's still one of the cleanest land rovers I've seen. Hoping mine will look this smart once it's been done.
 
Looks like it has been loved, I like it

It has, I have done everything that needed doing,since I bought it in 2008, no corners cut,no expense spared, except as regards the exterior appearance! :D

And the previous owner had had it since 91, always put into the main dealer for everything all those years, must have cost a fortune.

I like it too, it has been an able workhorse for seven years, road, farm and a bit of towing, and had a few great laning outings too! :)
