Has he seen the light?
A mate came back from his holiday to find his mould encrusted, excuse the swearing, 'range rover' (sorry) looking like this...
He's now bidding on a Vitara on ebay...think he's finally woken up!

Re: Has he seen the light?
Tbh I do actually like old rangies. My dad had a an old 2door 3.5 v8 when I was younger after the lj80, it used to roar with a short side exit exhaust
Also my first offroading was done in this before I had a license But I prefer SJs by a long way, so much easier to work on and a lot more capable in 90% of circumstances

Standard Range rovers aren't brilliant... perfect for Clarkson style off roading though.... just put your foot down hahah
Look at the pic theres almost an entire SJ hanging off the back over the wheels

Re: Has he seen the light?
a classic rangie was the first car I drove. I do like em alot but they do have the mind set of most land rovers in which they like to stop working. still, more reliable than the p38
pickle power!

Re: Has he seen the light?
Iv always liked range rover classics but so unreliable. My mates drove off a 2foot drop/steep descent and rolled and literally lost the roof like a tin can being opened. Honestly just cant beat an sj for all round value.
