My choice, one of the above or a late 80,s - 90,s G wagon.

Mine also had the full covered wheel caps.
What is the difference with the D Super?
Door Handles.

That is what mine had, most DS had the flush lift ones.

Cheers,

Mine is a DSpeciale, with lift up handles. These were introduced about 1970 but the push button handles remained on the bottom models for a few years. All earlier DS back to 1955 had the push button handles.

Well I supose that since I;ve arrived in the stupid pointless question department I might as well answer it.


If you can't have a Land Rover - get a Santana !!!!!




(For those who don't know much about 'em there is an excellent article by Phoenix in one of the older AULRO magazines. Dig it up and have a read !)

Got one already
M1026 Military HMMWV

Cheers,

Hi John,

The only D Super I have ever seen in AU was mine.
The only ones I've seen here are the Speciale's
I bought it off a guy who brought it with him from PNG.

Being RHD, it was obviously made in England, just as he was :-)

Cheers
