Eh??? You can buy fixed, forward facing seats to go in the back of an 88'', they come with three point inertia reel seatbelts too, so ideal for little people's seats. Downsides are that (a) you lose all your luggage space (well what little space you had!) and (b) they are not cheap!!! I...

18mpg should be feasable. I got an average of 22mpg out of my 2.25, which was acceptable. But then it's pretty flat round these parts :D

LOL! I have no idea! Some kind of home-brewed effort... it's very noisey at the least. Oh and obviously it has to be removed to access the engine (???!!!), so when I first got it running you could hear it from about a mile away! I'd understand if it was paired with a snorkel inlet, but it's...

Noisy, slow, bouncey, leaky, thirsty, heavy steering, gives you backache, non-existant brakes, etc. etc. Do you want me to go on??? I was kind of like you when I did my Series 2... it was 10 years plus since I'd driven a LR and it was a bit of a shock to the system. But once you get used to...

Just a quick bump to say hello again... realised I hadn't been on here in over six months. Oops! Anyway, the S2A has departed the fold. Regret selling it really, but wasn't quite fitting with the needs! But as you all know, once the bug has bitten you, that's it - infected for life. So I am...

Well I suppose some-one just ticked the wrong box on the application form for the (pre-computerised) DVLA & it got registered as a 'new' vehicle, despite being 10 years old at the time. I think back then it was quite common for this to happen. It still can happen now - I recently saw a 1980's...

Thanks for the welcome guys! Yes, the S2 was an ex-RAF vehicle, but that's all I know. It had all the classic MoD clues, like the fuel filler under the drivers seat, plus the obvious double-bumpers and wing disc. Unfortunately I had no history other than that, and the owners after it was...

Hello! First post as an introduction :) This is my current LR, a 1968 long-wheel-base truck-cab. Not the nicest one in the world, but it does the job. Essentially used (& abused) fetching and carrying and treated to a good mud bath on a sunday morning with some fairly sedate green-laning...
