Who on AULRO owns the most land rovers

[juddy]

Theres many a user, who list all the land rovers they have in there collection, post your pics of your collections..... and lets see whats out there....

[Veryan]

I dont think I own many, but here are mine:

Yellow/Mustard Coloured is a LWB SIII 2.25D not sure on age, suspect 71-79. Fitted with extra stationwagon tank.

Green Coloured SWB SIII 2.25D, '73 runs like a dream. Picked it up from a local roo hunter and restored back to original (seats, dash etc)...just needs paint!

SII SWB C/R under restoration.

I would have to say there are a few avid collectors out there that would make mine little collection look small!

have you not got ID plates on the firewall on yours?

If you look here

Land Rover FAQ - Repair & Maintenance - Series - Chassis Numbers - Your Chassis Number (http://www.lrfaq.org/Series/FAQ.S.Chassis.tracing.html)

it will tell exactly what year and many other things by the chassis number

hope it helps:)

i only have a 98 SE7 but i found a farm the other day that had what looked like 2 old landies sittting in the shed. Trying to get the wife to agree on selling in the burbs and buying the farm as long as it comes with the landies. I think these machines are a disease........NO KNOWN CURE

[vnx205]

Those of us who bought the right Land Rover only need the one. :p

Mrs hh:angel:

I think the only real difference is that I am limited just to the Land Rovers I need, while you are able to have (most of) the Land Rovers you want. :D

I wouldn't mind a Series I. Surely they are the most fun. I certainly thought so after a short drive several years ago in one my brother restored.

[juddy]

Maybe it should be who as the most land rovers that are working and running?

[Lostkiwi]

I have Seven that don't go :(
Four SWB S2a's
Two LWB S2a's
One LWB S3 and have been offered another Five!! [no thanks]

But have almost finished rebuilding one of the SWB's....... so Six to go:eek:

Come over and see how may you can drive:D.....6 do...... some are very dodgy though:eek::o:D

Mrs hh:angel:

[Mick-Kelly]

I think a certain gentleman in Tassie has around 30 last i saw plus sheds full of parts. If youve gotta have a retirement plan it may as well be a heap of landys...............right :p:p:p

[Rangier Rover]

I need to get some more of mine back in action. Anyone got fourteen spare batteries:eek:


Only two in full time use here atm so that counts me out.;) The 120" and The P76 powered 2 Door Rangie

Other Runners but not used every day
S1 80"
S11 109 (AYI 077)
S111 109 tray (Needs new expansion plugs in head)
S111 88 (Put aside for my kids)
89 Rangie (On going project)
94 Update Disco (Tdi)

Those that run but need restoration of repairs
90 Rangie (Hurt)
84 ph11 Rangie under restoration and looking for a good home:angel:
78 Rangie ( Transfer out)
S1 80 (51 model) For resto
S11 88 ute (Clutch fried)
S11 109 Head removed and machined
S111 88 ute Hole in piston (2.25 hi-comp with stage 11 head)
S111 109 ex telecom ute (Hurt from runaway)

Few other wrecks not worth mentioning.

Don't think I forgot any:confused:

[dandlandyman]

10 in total. Only one is runner, though. I could bring the FC back to life quite easily, though, if I can just find the time. The rest, as I've said here before, are simply pipedream projects.

Dan.
69 2A 88" pet4 (with an identity crisis), 68 2B FC pet6 (dozing quietly), plus 8 others (pipedream projects).

[Lotz-A-Landies]

Running is one thing but registered is another thing!

Which single person amongst us can afford to register their entire collection? I certainly can't. But I do have two Range Rover classics, a series 3 FFR (plus a Mk3 Inter ACCO) registered as well as two trailers registered.

Of the others, one SIIB drove up from Tassie to Sydney just on 12 months ago and will be registered again before Corowa. We drove another SIIB (owned by me) around the paddock about 3 months ago. The other two SIIB are non goers (but still owned by me), the two 80" (are owned by me and) are non-goers, one is a nut and bolt resto at engine/gearbox/chassis stage and the SIIA 109 (owned by me) is still in WA waiting for shipping to NSW the two Stage 1 V8's (owned by me) are being wrecked out and disposed of.

The three other ex-Army trailers (owned by me) are unregistered but awaiting a time when I need to register them. It's pointless paying rego when you don't have a place to take them.

BTW my Mk3, a SIIB and two trailers share a shed with a friends thirty odd, mostly military, Land Rovers but I don't think he is a member of AULRO.

agree with you on that one;)

When finished the 3 ex-mils 'bessie, charles & Dio' and the SIIa 'jack' on special and of course our DD's:)


Well that's my dream anyhow;)

However on the point of this thread... as a couple don't you have to halve your Landy count or double mine? :p

ahhhh but they are all mine besides 'charles' hh has claimed him and RED is both of ours:p:D

actually was told of a 109" today:o:D

[juddy]

Come over and see how may you can drive:D.....6 do...... some are very dodgy though:eek::o:D

Mrs hh:angel:

You know i will take you up on that offer, would be a interesting visit for me..... plus i know i will get to learn loads....

I suppose it depends on the Royal we, but i reckon our collection will do....for how many you have......

if it was how many FC 's do you have then i think there can only be one winner there.......

[Lotz-A-Landies]

...actually was told of a 109" today:o:D

Mrs hh:angel:Actually I won't tell you which model ex-mil I have agreed to buy yesterday. It's a runner but is pending an inspection on Saturday. ;)

[VladTepes]

I can... just... my entire collection of one.

Brings up a good point though - the 2nd and subsequent ought to be REALLY cheap - you can only drive one at a time after all.

Theiving bastard governments.




I want a Series 3 SWB - I want a regsitered (or registarable) runner thats really cheap. Obviously some of you have excess to requirements landies so....

c'mon, it's Christmas !

[juddy]

Actually I won't tell you which model ex-mil I have agreed to buy yesterday. It's a runner but is pending an inspection on Saturday. ;)

You have far too many, even if they were all restored, you cant use them all at once... so another one cant really hurt.

have you got one of every kind now???

hhmmmm I don't think you count Mark as you own the tow truck company:cool:


Hey Diana we should have one too and then how many Landies we could score:eek:

Mrs hh:angel:

I was thinking of a truck to take the landy's places, can you drive a 7.5t over here on your car license????

[marko66]

Hi All

If i'm disqualified that's ok:) but do we disqualify everyone with a car trailer too Mrs HH :):D.

Will have to post a photo with a shorty and lwb on the tray legallly one day

Regards Mark

[Ace]

I only have one at the moment, have two series landies at mum and dads place that I would say dad and I have a part share in though. I would have more if I had the space to keep them.

I'll just stick with the disco for now.

If we do that then Diana and us are out:(;)

Mrs hh:angel:

[vnx205]

I'm sure it must be a sign that you have too many Land Rovers when the list of your vehicles in your signature is usually longer than the text of your post. :p:p:p

To save anyone the trouble of making the observation, I totally reject the assertion that those of us whose posts contain more text than the list of our Land Rovers are just too long winded. :p:p:p

[UncleHo]

G'day Juddy :)

From memory I think it is only 3.5 tonne or could be 4.5 tonne, I think that you will need a medium or heavy rigid license (MR or HR) BUT, if you have your UK license that states that you are qualified to drive 7.5 TONS then you may qualify for a license upgrade maybe with a test :) somebody with some intelligence in your local registry should be able to help(ask for a supervisor);)


cheers
