    Your first 4x4

    What was your first 4x4?

    why did you change it ? Show it to us.

    For me, it was a Classic Range Rover, I sold it to buy the 110 I still have.

    1982 109 Stage 1 Truck Cab. 4BD1, LT95. Armstrong power steering, drum brakes all round, not even an AM radio!. I've still got it. It still has no radio.

    It went into semi retirement when I bought a '93 200Tdi LT77 truck cab. Didn't know myself! Nowhere near as good down low, but that turbo and a 5th gear for the highway! Coil springs, disc brakes, power steering, and even a CD player!

    Put a new gearbox, transfer, and clutch in it, and sold it within a year to a "mate" for $6.2K. Idiot. He's probably still laughing after selling it on for a profit! But I did that to get my 2011 130 dual cab HCPU....

    For a blissful, albeit short, period - I had all 3:



    But for now, two will do.

    This pic was on the header of LROCVs site for a couple of years. I didn't take it, I'm driving.

    My first 4WD - and first car - was a 1976 Subaru. Only had high range 4WD, but I still had lots of fun with it. After that was my first Landy - a IIA, then a long gap of family cars before getting the RRC, L322 and 101.

    My first 4x4, in late 1962, was a 1956 Series 1 petrol 88 hardtop, ex-SMHEA. I replaced this with a 1958 Series 2 petrol 88 hardtop, also ex-SMHEA, about a year later. I was after the better performance, and was disillusioned with the reliability, especially the SU fuel pump.

    This in turn was replaced in 1966 by a 1961 Series 2a diesel trayback, that I bought so as to get a diesel. I sold this in 1969 when I was transferred to PNG, leaving me without a 4x4 until I bought the current 1970 petrol 2a (ex-ADF FFR) 2a in 1992, after buying my current property.
