Yes it still makes me wonder :D
Hey Guys this morning I test drove this to see what they were like:D
Discounted Used 1989 Land Rover 110 (4WD) Green 4 Speed Manual Wagon - Cousins Motor Company, Oxley
My god it's like a truck compared to my current 4wd[Suzuki Sierra]
Battery was flat, then transfer would not engage high range[ was in neutral;)]
The driving position was great, very commanding, you sit nice and high, seats were ok..not uncomfortable at all, certainly better than my Dad's old series 3 109 seats:p
Shifting gears is not exactly easy[ like my sierra or a Toyota Corolla!:p]
The gears are very notchy and heavy[ I Missed gears a few times:rolleyes:]
Not to mention the clucth is dam heavy!:o brakes were pretty average too!
The steering was a bit heavy at parking speeds, but no where near as heavy as I expected it to be..and it was fine once moving:)
The ride was not bad at all thanks to coils..quite good..but the interior was LOUD as! and the whole car feels extremely solid felt like a tank:p, quite a few vibrations too.
The Isuzu motor..felt very slow[ my sierra 1.3 felt quick in comparison:lol2:]
But once moving it gets along fine..as long as your not in a hurry!
Reving the motor hard did't seem to make progress any quicker..
So long as each gear was in the torque band it was good:)
Would I buy one? HELL YES!:cool:
Hey 4x4 more iv been watching this one for sale for months, it's been getting steadily cheaper and cheaper. Think it was over 20 grand at first. it came from one of the first couple of auctions when people were paying ridiculous money for them. You may even beat them down in price or at least get them to replace all the batteries in it.

Ben said they brought 15 of them from Gray's online,,
and that one cost them 19 grand:eek:
They bid against their market. little bit of research will show what they paid for it.Quote:

I would be interested to know what they paid for that one.Quote:

You'd have to trawl through the old auctions. It had a distinctive tear in it.Quote:
