Sorry to hear about your dad. I’m sure he’d be very proud of a fitting send off from other Landy owners. Try the Scottish Land Rover club… https://www.slroc.co.uk/ Also post in the regional Land Rover section of the forum under the Scotland section. I hope it all goes well.

Very nice! Is it a former Hampshire fire service Landy? Good luck with the sale.

Original disco 1’s, especially early models, are getting rare. I’d be keeping it original.

Post a comment on the YouTube comments section for that post and hopefully the poster or owner will come back to you.

Sorry to hear this. I know from Landywatch that there have been several landies stolen from West Hampshire in the last month or two which may be linked.

Hi and welcome!

This could lead to another discussion as to which manufacturer uses the best quality steel in their chassis then. A subject which has likely been done before… 🤔 Would any one manufacturer outlast another, taking into account use, conditions, etc of the vehicle it is fitted to?

Hi and welcome! Lots of good help and advice on here. Don’t forget to post some pics of the Landy!

Agree, hence my comment about it being subjective. I do wonder if galvanised chassis’ are not necessarily a fit and forget option in many cases. Are any makes longer lasting than the others, aside from use, etc?

There have been a few discussions whereby people have had rust appearing on galvanised chassis’ recently. It’s probably subjective but has anyone had a shorter than expected life expectancy to their galvanised chassis? I appreciate that painting the chassis would extend its life but I’m looking...

I had a 2.5 petrol in my series 3. A very good engine, especially with overdrive.

Hi and welcome! Nice looking Landy! Never seen a garden hose from the header tank before.

Definitely!

Hi and welcome! Great looking Landy too!

Hi and welcome! Smart Landy too!

+1. Have you driven one before? They’re not everyone’s cup of tea. Rust is the biggest issue, in the chassis and bulkhead. Check that all identification numbers are present and match as these things get nicked like nobody’s business. Don’t let your heart rule your head too. Buy on condition...

Very tidy! I remember when lightweights could be picked up for a lot less than £10k!

These wheels look like disco 1 wheels, in which case they won’t fit a disco 2.

I’d either keep the original bonnet as above or replace with the same. The bulging bonnet does nothing to enhance a Landy in my opinion. However, it’s your Landy so go with what suits. Just be wary of where you buy a puma bonnet. There are lots of puma defenders being stolen so make sure you...

Sounds like a good result. Well done. 👍
