I'm currently converting my RRC from 3.9V8 to a 200Tdi. I am using an R380 gearbox, already fitted and all ok. Got the engine in and just positioning the engine mounts before welding them, with the engine level the engine mount on the off side is approx 1/4 inch above the chassis but on the near...

My dads also had the invite, main dealer is less than 1 mile away and he still wasn't interested!! Was tempted to go in his place :)

Seen this on flee bay, what were they thinking!!! RANGE ROVER P38 4.0 SE AUTO V8 | eBay

Hi, I'm planning on doing the same conversion, although I have a manual Lt77 gearbox with my V8. I contacted Ashcroft, who were very helpful in telling me what I needed to do, replace bell housing and spigot bush. I have a Borg Warner transfer box on my Lt77 gearbox. Have you decided if...

Went playing in the snow in North Yorks. Found some good roads that hadn't been cleared, with the BF Goodrich mud terrain tyres on my '92 classic the snow wasn't a problem. Came across some lads in a newish defender trying to get up a grass embankment from a car park onto the road, it wouldn't...

Stunning car but no way its worth that much. I reckon £7-8k on a good day.

I've seen diesel ones on ebay which are a lot better and less money! It's a big risk buying one with those faults.

Silly money!! if it needs a new gearbox that will be £2k, sort suspension out probably another £400, repair scrapes £250. Could get a lot better car for that money.

Went to Brighouse motor auctions this morning with a view to bidding on a 2001 2.5 diesel County. Done 74k miles, full service history, 3 owners, Epsom green with lightstone leather. Looked at car before auction, can't have keys so couldn't look inside or start it. Looked ok, few scrapes and...

Penny has dropped :doh:

New engine fitted 50k miles ago, not at 50k miles. Wasn't mine or my dads car, just someone I know. My dads been thinking about selling his '98 4.0 SE, at only 62k miles, 2 owners, full land rover main dealer history, in a good colour of epsom green with lightstone leather it is very tempting...

At £1,600 the guy paid for it I don't think you can go wrong, wish I'd have seen it :)

My dad has had his '98 4.0 for 9 years, been ok but only done 62k miles. Not on lpg either, that might make a difference!

They can't all be bad, can they??

Still very tempting, had a new engine 50k miles back, never know it might have had top hat liners fitted.

With LPG don't suppose it's too bad :)

Just been chatting to a guy today about his range rover. Its a 2000 'W' 4.6 Vogue with multi point LPG in black with black leather. Looked very nice, all standard, not messed with. Done 137k miles but new engine 50k miles ago. He bought it a couple of months ago from a car auction in Leeds for...

Removed carpets from boot area, inspected for rust - found some!! Wire brushed rust, used jenolite and painted. Some welding to do in the near future. Classics are great but it's a long running battle against the tin worm!

Is there anyway to find out the original build specification of my '92 RRC? Just wanted to know what extras it had.
