Not really a "what did I do today" but a "what would you do" post.

Back in 2021 or so, we had two LR3's, Winston (mine) and Christine( hers, named after the fictional yet all too real Christine cuz that beyotch taught me every corner of LR3) and since we were after the Bronco Sport and Bronco 6G at the time we put both uo for sale. Winston went first, purchased by a lady a bit south of us, and the other day I was looking through the local FB marketplace and one of the listings is a Buckingham Blue 2008 LR3 being parted out. No particular reason given but the LR3 is obviously down on the bumpstops in the only photo in the listing.
It was functioning perfect when I sold it....I was kind of hoping Chrsitine would go first. My mind is trying to figure out if it is indeed Winston, if it's getting parted out why, and how much for the whole Rover? But at the same time, when you sell something to someone and it didn't work out there's a level of "how will that all work out". I'd buy it back cheap, and I do still have the VIN in my Gap tool as the first license on it.

BTW both Broncos, the Sport and the 2 door, are gone. They weren't LR's. They lacked.....Roveriness.

 

Just ask the seller for the VIN if they did not post it in the ad, but usually they do. Just way you want to dig up the options list for stuff you might need or some excuse to get the VIN.

 

I exhibited my Land Rover at the international auto show recently! It was pretty cool, so many people asked why the truck was old and dirty. It old them it is a tool not a toy! Just like my augmented reality headset, a tool - not a toy. It was awesome to witness a transformation of understanding, as people who visited me usually think that 3D and virtual reality is fun and games, but I've got 300 videos showing how to use this technology for work and information. And unlike VR goggles which isolate you, AR glasses have transparent lenses so you can make eye contact, easily navigate the real space, and if you need to, let you flip up the transparent visor at any time, while also keeping your peripheral vision open to see the world around you. VR isolates, but AR integrates. Based on the same 3D graphics principles though. I think one day we'll all use smart glasses to get 3D info where it's needed in context, rather than watching flat 2D videos on YouTube.
