That's a tough one - one one hand, it would make sense if you never drive it, but on the other hand - what would your user name become - haven'tgotap38arover or usedtohaveap38arover???![]()
It's starting to look like decision time on whether or not to sell the P38A which I've had for the past 10 years
I rarely drive it any more, it just sits in the backyard. I'm not that interested in off-roading any more and haven't been for some years. In fact, the P38A has only been mildly off-road twice in the time I've owned it.
I'm retired so we don't need a second car — besides I have the motorbike (which I also rarely ride). I recently sold the Yamaha XJR1300 as it only had about 1000km put on it in the past year. I put 5,000km on it in the past 4 years.

If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.
Have you thought about selling it a buying a series to rebuild? If you are retired and not much interested in off roading, why not venture into restoring? It would certainly keep you busy if nothing else. I was told many years ago that everyman needs to produce something just to keep active. Just a thought.

Ron, may I ask out of curiosity, what you are interested in nowadays ?
I just mess about abit and play golf sometimes and read heaps.
Cheers.

You're going to be lost without a Rangie. There is a psychological comfort factor in knowing that it is there should you want it and in just knowing that you have one.
I'm in a similar situation. Mrs Grumbles has her car and I've just bought a new non Landy fourby so my LSE isn't used except for the once a week dedicated 20/30 km highway run just to keep the oils circulated, the EAS in good order and the battery charged. But - it brings a huge smile to my face and a big mental boost when I get in it for its weekly outing and I thoroughly enjoy my outing in it.
I reckon sell the bike and keep the car if something has to go. Besides - retirees don't bounce like they used to....lol.![]()

So you play lawn bowls now?![]()
Sell it.
If you still want to retain some link with Landrover / Range Rover for sentimental reasons sell the other car too and get an Evoque, maybe a 2wd version if off road is not your thing anymore.

It'd be a shame to move it on Ron, your one is as nice as P38's come.
Perhaps...... the moderater formerly known as p38arover
Cheers
