    Series 2a or 3?

    Thanks for the heads-up. It looks like a great vehicle. Unfortunately, I am after a SWB. Cheers, Chris.

    Series 2a or 3?

    Barry, Thanks for your honesty. The seller (Keith) seems really cagey, I keep asking him questions and he's really evasive. I hope it works out well for you as it looks like somebody could get a bargain. He says the 2nd gear is crunching, and the thrust bearing is not happy. I asked him if...

    Is that the 2a or 3?

    Series 2a or 3?

    Will consider that, thanks. Anybody know a convincing reason why I should buy a 2a or 3? Thanks, Chris.

    Series 2a or 3?

    Hi, I want to buy my first Land Rover, and have a budget of up to £1000. The Landy will be bought because i've always wanted one, and to take the dog out. The cab cannot be seperate from the cab (pick-up), as I want a dog guard seperating the dog and I. I want tax exempt, so early 70's...

    Series with a post-1990 diesel engine?

    Hi, I'd like a tax-exempt Series Landy, with a post-1990 diesel engine. I want this configuration, so that I can run the engine on bio-diesel, and still be tax exempt! Does anybody know whether it is possible to marry a later engine with an older workhorse? Many thanks, Chris.

    Tax exempt bio-diesel Landy?

    So I guess I'll be looking at a Series 2, if I want to use Bio Biesel, and for it to be tax-exempt (pre Aug 73). Anybody else done this? Thanks, Chris.

    Tax exempt bio-diesel Landy?

    Is that physically possible? Sounds awesome!

    Tax exempt bio-diesel Landy?

    Gary, Thanks for your reply. What is "salad days cooking oil"? The question I guess is, how old does your Landy have to be before it is tax exempt, and do any of these vehicles take (run reliably, I mean) this sort of fuel or any other bio-diesel? Failing this, in order to be green and...

    Tax exempt bio-diesel Landy?

    Hi, all. New to the forum :-). In a perfect world, I would like a UK tax exempt Landy, that runs on bio-diesel. A lot to ask, I know. Does anybody know whether this is acheivable? I want a Landy, but want to be environmentally friendly, and prefer not to pay tax if poss. The Landy will be...
