Lol, looks like it'd be fun to throw it at things just to see how it does, wouldn't get to throw it at much with just a 40-50km range though. Also, where can I get paid to hit stuff with sticks and bricks? That looks fun. :P

Both my parents TD5s had front sunroof motor sulks recently. Had to take them apart and free them up a bit then stick them back in and they worked. Though one was mainly due to water leaking into it.

The market for classics is going up, maybe they'll start making knock-off RRCs, that'd be interesting. :P

How on earth did the wheels turn so much without catching something? O_o Lots of work, horrible result. Utterly mad.

I actually like them. Guess I'm another odd one. But then I find a lot of modern alloy styles to look crap. Also never been a fan of low profile tyres and such.

Well, this guy in the for sale section has a defender with a 6.7l cummins engine in there. So can fit that. No idea about cost or trouble though. Check out the pic of the engine bay, very nice. :) https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/defender-twin-cab-6-7l.304927/

Doesn't sound much lower than tomcat59alan's 24-29 but when they're both so low to begin with it's just over a third better. >< Both my classics are V8s (though one is planned to change eventually) so I'd still have a choice between driving diesel or petrol. :)

Got 2 Classics and love them to bits (uhh...not....not that they're in bits....maybe) but I would like to have a P38 sometime. So long as it's still on air-springs. And a diesel (I do love V8s but too thirsty). Hopefully by the time I get one they won't have gone up.

Cool. Glad to see another one getting back on the road. :)

Awesome. :) You'll soon be looking for any excuse to drive it around. How much left before MOT now? So far it sounds like a good buy for £300. :P

I'd suggest learning some welding.

Sounds good. Glad you're so pleased with how it is to drive already. :)

The owners manual for my 1988 Classic states towing capability of 3500Kg. I'd be massively surprised if the P38 (I'm just guessing from your avatar, correct me if wrong), had worse towing potential than the classic. :S So that plate is a bit baffling. As far as I'm aware each iteration of the...

Yeah some parts prices seem to be a bit higher than last time I looked. Aluminium upper tailgates seem to have gone up too (no pun intended). They are very enjoyable to drive. :) Yeah, again same here, I'd have no patience at all for spraying, would have to get someone else which just means...

When you're broke and all you have is spanners and such then even angle grinders and welders are fancy tools. ;) If you were closer I'd be happy to lend what little help I could. Ugh, electrics. I feel your pain. I am at a complete loss with electrics. Cool, hope you get the bits soon and all...

RR can tow 3.5. Always has.

And they make it look so easy too. :P

Replaced the interior light switch on my 88 classic. Soooo much more I want to do but can't.

Looking good. :) Love classic resto threads. Just wish I had the funds and ability to sort out my two. :(

He's bought a person to carry him on their back.
