Reply With QuoteMy mate is all to aware of the dangers of the Land Rover siren call, and refuses to let me give him a lift or even sit in mine, in case he won't be able to go back to his dual cab utes, and ends up having to get one.

Friend of mine was recently the 'victim' of a most deceitful action, - by a Land Rover owner.
A staunch Nissan- Pootrol owner - with Very Large Manly Tyres and Brutal bar work... had his Daily Driver / Family Wagon pride and joy "modified" by SWMBO. Said Wife was rescued by her (employment) Boss, who deviously loaned them his spare, - TDV6 Range Rover......
He LIKES the driving position, raves over the tight turning circle and even praises detail as steering - wheel's cross section !
And the Power, and the RIDE......
One week and he's more than half-way corrupted...... Another week and he's not going back.
To be fair, I did warn about the need for 'active maintainance' but his only complaint is "Left-hand drive Indicator wand."
- He'll get used to it.

SubscriberIn 1971 a "mate" offered to loan me his Series I while I had my old Prefect in bits (yet again). Stupidly I took him up on his offer.
That's it. Sunk. Ruined.....

That is not a Prefect - unless I am mistaken, it is a Ford Popular, which never made it to Australia as far as I know. Related to a Prefect, but the rock bottom basic poverty model.

Quite right John. Wasn't the 103E ute sold here as the Popular coupe utility?
