Greetings range rover people. I usually hang around in the defender and more recently, the series forums. I've got a lovely little series 3, but I'm thinking that i might let it go so I can get a range rover classic. I've always loved the classic. I was wondering what people thought of them after owning them, and whether there was anything that was a recurring frustration with them? I want something that will do occasional towing of horse trailers, but it'll mainly be a general non-daily runner. I won't want to use it for any extreme off-roading stuff, as I've got a 90 if I want to do that, so I'm just hoping to find something that's fairly unmolested (although, I have to say that I love the look of bob-tailed classics with lifted suspension and massive mt tyres hehe, so that's a complete and utter contradiction!).
I've heard that the 3.9efi is capable of 25mpg on a run, which sounds pretty decent. Would that just be with the manual gearbox? I'd probably rather get a diesel, but I don't think they're so common.
Anyway, the gist of it is that I'm wondering what I should be looking out for if I do start looking at classics, and also, if there's anyone who fancies a change and they're near the forest of dean, then they might be interested in my series 3
