Hello, I'm new to the forum (be gentle )...

I've got 3 "Landrovers" on the drive (I'm a lucky man), a Range Rover Vogue TDV8, a pimped up 110 twin cab and since last weekend a series 3 light weight I picked up cheap on eBay! Ones for office work, ones for hunting/woodland work and the light weights for fun.

I'm amazed to say, the one I dream a about driving all the time is the lighty!!! Thanks to this forum I've cleaned carb, fuel pump, added a filter, and fixed starter! It's simply the most engaging fun drive of the three! It's like a living thing! I love it!

I'll be giving the light weight an overhaul and will post the results as they come.

Cheers all.

Nice lightweight, Longstride. I'd like one of those some day, nice and weathered like yours.

Sure am Scott! You? I don't really know any of roaders in the area, I use mine on estates mainly so don't really green lane for fun, but I'd like to.

That was often my go to line as well, fresh out of the book haha. Aye possibly, I used to work just over the hill years back - not down there so much anymore nowadays mind, i'll keep an eye out for a lightweight if i am
