charlie caller 3,654 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Whatever you get BUY JAP, do not get a shitty landrover, that Toyota Socks is selling would be just the ticket, run it for 3 years and get most of your money back, they hold their value amazingly, even an old shitter is 2 grand. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tomburras 2,721 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Shitty landrover! How dare you lol. I'd look for a landrover 90 on a galv chassais with a 200 tdi engine. Simple and very cheap to fix! hold their value and are a joy to drive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
