I thought the idea of a landy is that you can drive over these types of obstacles! A old work colleague got a defender the other day and I hear he drove it straight over a 30 metre grass roundabout... twice! haha. He's a classic example of who you don't want to buy one off I guess, hehe

Yeh, I get you. It the same old story of affection over sensibility, I guess. I would give it some good use off road and as a workhorse, lugging bits of tree around and what not, but perhaps I'd regret ridding myself of the super practical runner I've got at the moment. It's all things to...

What's your reasoning? And how would one gain experience without buying one first?

I haven't no. Should I? I've got a solid Peugeot 406 110 at the moment which any smart person would say I should stay with.

Hello, I own a Range Rover Vogue 1994, due to it being off the road and unused for a long period of time the battery has died and now when running it from another car I get 'engine lockout' being displayed on the dash and am unable to start the vehicle. I have the 4 digit code but I can't figure...

Ha, cheers boy. As you no doubt know- Kernow inspires many unusual things and names are definitely one of them. I'll get onto them Range Rover boys promptly then .

Hello, my name is Eli-Joby. I own a Range Rover Vogue 4.7 petrol. It's a beaut of a truck but I need to sell her as she costs way to much to run (like that beautiful yet wants the earth girlfirend you had to get rid of). Main reason I'm on here is to get help with a problem and I've decided...
