It would have to be either of the Rangies or the 1990 Patrol.
The rangies because of the fact I just love thame and the are the perfect size for just about anything, the patrol because of where I went with it.

No That's just the 4x4's :oops:
You could easily add another 30 to the list if you include 2wd.

Explain yourself. How on earth did you manage that?
And more to the point, why have you owned so many ?

I am a Landy tart! Here are mine.
'Daisey' -- 1995 Defender 130 Crewcab (300TDi)
'Rex' -- 1995 Range Rover 'Classic' (blue one with a 4.6ltr motor)
'Kimba' -- 2002 Defender 110
I love all of them for different reasons.
Still miss Daisey for the load space and the 300TDi.
Miss the sound of Rex, twin pipes, but don't miss the fuel bill (even running on LPG).
With Kimba it is still lust and awesome sex! 8O

Not sucking up, Stacey and I want to eventually buy a farm of our own, around the 500-1000acre size and a cab chassis will be essential for work around the farm, and what better vehicle for the job than a Defender. Christ i wouldnt suck up to vlad, what do i possibly have to gain from that. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif Matt

mine are:
Various Series 2 / 2a's

92 Sierra - most reliable car I've had. One globe in over a year of ownership.
85 RR - Really should have saved up a bit more for an 86 EFI, carbies give me the ****s and i got rid of it fairly quickly.
89 RR - Still got this one. Not much of it is still standard. Forever a work in progress.
98 Tdi Discovery - the new car. Somehow convinced the missus we needed another 4wd. Really good car, setting it up for touring - lurve the fuel economy!

Who didnt start in Landies but moved over later in life? Why did you move over? Was it a change which turned out to be an addiction? Matt

I've owned up, of all the fourbies I've owned the most capable have been the Rangies, the Disco at present is untried but will be soon and I expect it will be good, the Patrol was good and the Tojo was the least impressive.
