    Go the Keswick 130. LR's finest moment in motoring history to release that vehicle colour combination. Totally biased.

    Your story prompts me to update my insurance.

    No doubt you have seen that Juddy has a rack for sale at a significant discount to RRP. After seeing Cammo's set up with the rack and RTT it's a great set up and good use of space.

    If you unscrew the cubby box you will find a plug ready to accept a sub woofer
    I'm trying to find a car radio place that can supply a pioneer sub that is the same as the LR one in the 90/110 and appropriate plug
    (maybe someone here can help)
    The radio is certainly 100% better with a sub the difference between SWMBO's 90 and my 130 is chalk and cheese when it comes to music at highway speeds
    No adjustable headlights in 130 either
    I haven't tried the dealer yet maybe the subs available as spare part probably cost an arm and a leg though
    Enjoy your new 130 !!!!!!!

    Nice one Lou,
    Love the Keswick green and white roof combo.

    The 130 also misses out on the rubber end caps on the front bumper, no big deal, but the holes are there in the steel where they get mounted. Can't quite see the holes in your pic, but the 130 I saw the other day had them.

    Cheers, Murray

    yeah I we noticed there was no headlight leveler which is silly really you would think the car that is more likely to tow a heavy load would be the one that would need to adjust its headlights the most??!

    they have some strange ideas sometimes Land Rover

    Went to auction and got bought Pat...

    The Keswick is def a colour to be appreciated in the flesh Pat I don't know if you have seen one in the flesh or not as a colour it doesn't photograph well at all. Although if you dislike it that much then you possibly still wouldn't like it in the flesh I feel the same way about the red.

    If it was an option I would of had the 130 in Nara bronze anyway but alas not an option.

    I asked Ian whether he felt there was ad difference between the 130 engine and the 110 he said he hasn't driven it much to really say he feels the mid range feels a bit better spread I think he means smoother but other than that he can't really say.

    I only don't like Keswick because everyone wants it,even in the UK it's the most wanted color,Roto Plastics in Perth make a really good poly tank that fits neatly across the head board that will give you a nice increase in fuel capacity,they make some neat looking water tanks that fit under the tray also.
