    I thought I would post a couple of pictures up of my weekend plaything!!!!

    I use it for one use and one use only, MUD PLUGGING AND WADING THROUGH STUPIDLY DEEP WATER

    The 3rd picture shows it in it's girly purple as it was when I bought it.

    Methinks it is fantastic!! That's a Defender 90 isn't it? They will get up pretty much anything. Well, anything they can't climb - there's very little, if anything, that would do it. They are great. I betcha you have sooo much fun in that!!

    A proper 4x4 for doing proper off-road stuff. Excellent. Oh, and glad you got rid of the hideous purple. WTF were they thinking!!?

    Nice little mods BTW. Deep water breather, bull bar etc. I'm guessing the closest previous owner got to going off road was parking in an off road car park!!?

    Fixing them was my bread and butter when I was a Vehicle Mechanic in the Army. There is simply nothing to beat them off road. Not even the BMW X5 that they keep comparing Land Rovers with nowadays.
    It looks months old, not years.

    Loverly!!

    I used to have a B reg 90 V8 - I had it for two and a half years - incredible vehicle in mint condition. It saw off most XR3s from the lights and the engine sounded fantastic. I was pulling a caravan up the M1 once going at about 70mph when the caravan suffered a blow out - nothing happened to the steering - just pulled over changed the wheel and off we went! (incidentally I used to get 12mpg normally but pulling a caravan it went up to 19mpg!)

    I sold it 5 years ago on the web to a guy who exported it to Canada. I still get christmas cards from it showing it in the rockies in the snow pulling out all those japanese softroaders !

    happy days
