Im ready for my third Rover and I lust for either a 2004 Range Rover HSE or a 2005-2006 LR3 HSE....... to compliment my 2004 Discovery of course. Im getting more and more addicted to Land Rover. Yeeeekkkkssss sorry guys just venting some frustrations.

PS: My first landy was a 98 D1, had it for half a year then parted her out and sold the body to scrap yard. Recently acquired 04 D2 after many months of patience...

 

with all those trucks i never see you at any of our events!? why not pick up a d1 and make a trail truck.

 

CORRECTION!: My second rover lol. First one was my former 98 D1. Bought it for $1000 from a guy down the road and man it was completely neglected past the point of rational repair..... shes gone and now Im with my 2nd rover. But now I desire a third to compliment my current D2. And I will be attending the next new england rover club event! Plus Im still trying to get some people together from the local states for a random meet.

ever since I was enlightened with the innovations and new styling of the D2, it would be hard as hell to revert back to the D1...... I still love them all and I respect the D1 but it would feel so weird now.

 

Whoa, two rovers at the same time? Hold your horses man. Its hard enough cleaning every spec of dust off your truck three times a day, just imagine how hard that would be with two!

 

If you get a second Rover, make sure it's still under warranty. LOL. One Rover is enough for my free time and checkbook.

 

Probabally wont be for awhile anyways, just felt like venting. But I will keep my eyes open for any good deals on a decent LR3 or 04-05 Rangie. Guess Im tempted by the new styling, new interior, new electronics on board and size increase of the newer rovers. Still love my current D2 though and I doubt Ill ever part with her.....

 

If you want an LR3 more power to you but man DIY on one of those is going to be a whole other level than a DII or DI. More electrical BS to go wrong.

I'm with the earlier posts. Rebuild a D1 into a sweet trail truck. You say you want to keep your DII stock anyway, the D1 can be the road grader.
