    It's 11pm here and I really should be getting to bed.

    Just brushed my teeth, grabbing the tooth brush form the toiletry bag, where it sits next to the sink. While brushing my teeth I noticed the toiletry bag still had that camp fire smell, this is because it was hanging off the back of the Perentie and the wind direction was blowing the smoke that way last weekend while we were camping. You see I hate putting the toothbrushes back in their holders, it means we'll be home for a while.

    So there I am brushing teeth, thinking about work tomorrow and while smelling the old camp fire smoke I started to think about our 4 year old boy throwing rocks in the creek and the older boys talking about Land Rovers around the camp fire. I started thinking about the next trip, what I have to do to get ready, what the truck needs and how much I can get away with spending. Ultimately though I'm thinking about what a good time we're going to have and what new things we're going to see.

    So to answer the question. The most desirable Land Rover is the one that allows you to get out there and enjoy this country, hang out with mates and while brushing your teeth you picture your 4 year boy throwing rocks into a creek.

    Well I have to put the Series 3 Game in the list, and yes I am biased .

    Maybe as few as 200 made and an Australian only model, every one is numbered and I have yet to see one listed under 100 or over 300. Special features include unique colour (Yellow Devil) and decals, bullbar, station wagon rear, deluxe interior, deluxe bonnet, rear corner protectors, rear bumpers and a wheel carrier and tropical roof on some.

    So I think it deserves to be somewhere on the list .

    I think even a replica like this would be very desirable, give the rivet counters something to think about anyway.
    I actually like the look of the front of it and love the sweep of the guard to the front, the centre steer bit can be dumped but I reckon it could look real good with this front and an 80" back...
    (it was a long time after this one before they went back to one piece windscreen)

    think it would look good. As for jeep chassis, you can still buy repros brand new! (so no wrestling!)

    But you may be surprised to hear that these (80's) although very close are not my favorites.... I think the best one made...GUNBUGGY hands down!

    Camels are right up there in the collectable status...

    130s are the rarest (they only ever built 5x).
    90s (only ever used on 2x events).
    RaRos (only a handful still around).
    Freelanders (IIRC only 12 RHD ever made).
    110s
    3dr Disco (only used on 1 event).
    5dr Disco

    50th Defender is another collectable.
