Oh, I want to Del.
Got to get the RRS first, then build the workshop to repair them in and hopefully have a really good business year and buy a nice Black D4. Thumbs Up

Of course other colours are available Rolling with laughter

Mine has 161000 on the clock,did everything you shouldn't do as a buyer I.e. Very little service history and a known fault which turned out to be HPFP and LPFP ,but after a mega flush and new front lower arms and a few bits and bobs and I love it ,these aren't cheap cars to buy or maintain and yes they do go wrong so always put a bit away each month to keep on top of maintenance ,get a good indie to deal with the issues and the reward is a car that will tow anything , carry 7 people in comfort and be a joy to drive ,land rovers are unique they can make you smile and then cry all in one day but would I have any other car NO never

I was driven to the station (after a mega Chinese nosh with lots of beer) last night in a RRS2 and it was very, very, very nice. Unfortunately in my peeweed state I said same to SWMBO and got the "don't get ideas" response. Big Cry Big Cry Big Cry
