I use my 110 as a daily driver except for the weekends when I'm hard at it restoring one of other Landrovers, 8 in all (currently restoring a S2 Comm/recon car) and every 4th Sunday I can have my own military convoy if I can con 3 drivers into sharing the day with me :wink: :wink:

Ok, now I have landy envy [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif[/img] . Bragger [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img][/b][/quote]

Told you I was still drooling after visiting Uncle Dinty. See me sitting in the gun-buggy in the gallery? :twisted: [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]


I drive '183' daily. 3/70 S2A FFT. I've not long returned from a trip to Sydney return where I averaged around 314kms to a tank of fuel....original 4 pot that it was delivered to the Army with and it's never been rebuilt until I changed the head.

Photos in the Gallery...page 3 titled 177-183 and page 4 under Antaine's trip.

Slainte,

I used to drive an 83 rangy as a daily driver, but when a couple of valves burnt out, I got a commondore for the DD. It's also a bit cheaper to do 60,000 k's a year in the commodore than the range rover.

However, on weekends, the rangy is the transport of choice. The commodore gets parked on friday arvo, and doesn't move again until monday morning.

8) well i use my disco every day carrying the tools and whatever, i do about a hundred k a day, and its generally reliable except for the mystery virus under the bonnet, just look out for me on the road,
i'm the one with the petrol tanker following, soon to be joined by the racq breakdown van.

Good to see so many daily drivers out there...

and one_iota - "So what - it's a disco" (happy now [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img] )






so, who else ?

since we traded in the wifes car for the disco it gets driven everyday (she got my car) except for now and again when we are both going somewhere then we will take the fairmont :twisted: (more comfort) [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

8) Fair go Harry did mention a Vanguard elsewhere: good British ironmongery.

8) jeez at least the purple vang went like shxx and got there, and it was built in 1949,
bloody good year that!

in fact the old vang was probably my first intro to 4wd [only with 2wd]

queing up for harrys horror rides to gunnamatta beach on thursday nights after the pub closed.

ahh its ok, we didn't get killed or caught!
