~~~ L R 3 ~~~


Eric

 

5 speed D1

 

A 1955 S1.
Though, if I had a spare $30k I'd be tempted to get a Centaur:

 

They have a article about those in this months issue of LRW, I have not gotten to that part yet but was paging through and they look SWEET!
VERY limited production.

 

I thought I remembered reading a post of yours some time ago expressing an interest in a RR Sport... The fact that only douches drive them in your town is all the more reason to buy one- after all, someone has to represent!

Besides, it's mainly soccer moms that drive Discos but we don't let that stop us!

 

if i go sit at a cafe by the lake here i will probably see 20 rovers in a hour. all the RR's will be driven by guys with their polo shirt collars turned up or by well kept women with $1000 hand bags,,,

the LR's will be driven by regular looking people and half of the ones i see might not see off road duty, but are dirty at least. one chick i see all the time has a D1 outfitted in pirate gear,,its kinda cool. there are a few guys in RR classics that i have talked to who have owned them since new. one is camel colors. there are 2 camel discos in town. one of them is outfitted pretty well.

 

Yup, very limited, but I know who has two for sale, or did when I was last there. Just need to win the lottery. Of course, I'd have to play the lottery to win. LOL

 

I want the Land Rover from The Gods Must Be Crazy, that exact one, dunno what series it is. watched that movie last night,laughed myass off when the guy is under neath the thing cursin away at it..... raga fraga fragga ragga Land Rover.... hahahaha

 

Same here, gotta play to win but just cant bring myself to buy a stupid ticket.
I like a guaranteed return on my investment and I know that if I buy and drink a Pepsi that it will taste good and that I will have to pee.
No guarantee with a lotto ticket...other than another piece of paper for the recycling.

 

Series II.

Wasnt it cool that he installed new piston rings with the engine still in the truck and while being held up by the winch (not a good idea to be under a truck held by a winch) and miles from anywhere?
Ah, the true simplicity of what Rover engineering used to be.
