Fair point....if it's going to spend it's life in mud and water I wouldn't be spending £20k. Buy an old beater and repair as you go.

Age and year is nothing to do with it fella - it's all about condition. If you don't know what to look for when buying a Defender you'll buy the first shiny turd you see. Absolute minefield, which is why I said make sure you take someone with you who REALLY knows Landy's if you don't yourself.

£20k is a good budget chap, you should get a good one for that money. BUT.... If you don't know Landy's take someone with you who really does. Not someone who can have a poke about and say 'it looks OK' - someone who knows Landy's. It's very easy indeed to buy a pup, even with your budget...

Handy ! :)

Welcome Richard :)

Bloody hoping mine will be fixed or I'm out....poxy thing :mad:

??!! :eek: **** the bed....!

How cool is that ? :D

They'll sell like hot cakes.

No, not at all mate :) didn't read all the posts, just added my two 'penneth ;)

I have AA but it's me that's covered, not the car so whatever I'm in (either driving or as a passenger) if anything happens they get me home. Vehicle or age is immaterial.

Buy German - save the pain !

That's a worldwide diarrhoea epidemic....

WTF ?!

Agree totally.

Piccy no worky fella....

@neilly yes, on the Defender

:)

Look at the MoMo range, I run one and they're a fair bit smaller. can get them for about £150 new.

That looks like it'll test me, but I'd love to have a go at something of that level ! :D
