At the end of the day I decided to look at A Land Rover in Toorak by a private seller and wow it looks like A $10,000 to $12,000 Land Rover in car yards in Melbourne but the only down side is the roof lining so I figured well it's just the roof lining no drama's to get that fixed.
I will be needing a towbar as it doesn't have one.

Got the beast home at 4:30pm Saturday was a great drive home found that the cruise control did not work and is in need of a steering alignment. In the carpark of a supermarket I could hear odd grone noise from the steering as well.
We did find it came with a TV in the passenger sun visor which explained the 2 ariels outside. Not sure if it works as when I tried it it wouldn't pick up any stations.
Now I know you will laugh at this but being a 1st time 4x4 owner my brother was trying to show me how to engage the transfer box and moved the stick around and when me and my sister went shopping I noticed a wine to the driving that was not there before and when I got to the end of a main street I lost drive and knew my brother had did something wrong tot he transfer box and it disengaged so i had to try and figure out how to get it back in and I did have a little trouble and I didn't have the manual with me I left it at home for reading but I got it into gear but it slipped out again when I got into a parking space but later got it back again.
Now i got the Landy back home I read up on the transfer box and how to use the gears but I am still a little confused on how to properly engage the gears and i noticed in the Landy the diagram was not in the manual but this is what i have figured out to place it into normal road gears.
1. Put it into Diff position firmly
2. Then put it into H (high gears)
3. Then twist the gear stick on an angle to the left to lock the stick into postion.
Am I right here ?
What I am confused on which is not covered in the manual that I could read is how you go about the motion of putting it into these gears like for example :-
1. Push stick up into N (neutral)
2. Push stick to the left
3. Push stick up firmly into DIFF position
4. Push stick right from DIFF position to L (low gears) position
5. Push stick down to N (neutral) then to H (high gears) postion
6. Twist gear stick to the left leaving on an angle to lock it in to prevent accidental knock.
I also know I need to have the hand brake and foot brake on and auto in Neutral position before using the Transfer box.
I feel like a knob now :(
Hi, hope you are enjoying your new toy.
Diff unlocked = lever to the right
Diff locked = lever to the left (yellow light on dash)
Low range = lever forward
High range = lever backward
Twisting it just loosens the knob.
For normal driving on hard grippy surfaces you should have the diff unlocked (no yellow dash light). Only lock it when on loose surfaces or when you have rough terrain.
You only need the auto in N to change - no hand brake or foot brake needed.
I don't know if I twist the knob in the same position as in the diagrame in the Landy I find I can not move the stick from it's current position. I'll give it ago again later today to see if it's still so. ?Quote:
