Default New Land Rover 90 owner needs help

Hi all,

I'm going to apologise in advance for this as I'm sure many people before me have asked exactly the same question, but hey.

I'm seriously considering purchasing an E reg 90. Its on the mighty bay. 2.5 diesel. I'm pretty hands on, happy to get stuck in and keep it up and running.

My question really is, whats the worst case scenario on buying one. What should I be looking out for.

It has to be rot somewhere, but is it generally one place that is the Achilles heal so to speak?

Not to fussed about mechanics, that's easy compared to modern vehicles. I'm handy with a welder but don't want to have to replace an entire chassis.

Thanks,

Stiggie
