Amazing what you can buy on ebay, as in LRO International, but now in my carpark, the leather has to be seen to be believed.
Only one problem, the other half says something must go,
1, Strange Rover Overfinch,
2, 130 CSW
3, 130 Doublecab
4, Range Rover Classic, Shorty my pimped ride,
5, The green beast, space frame 5.9L simex lockers etec, etc.

I cant see the problem, theres still plenty of room for her Vw caravelle.
My excuss is i have 6 kids, so i am getting enough cars ready for when they are old enough. :wink:

The transfer box is a schuler, according to paperwork, been so busy havent looked under it to see whats differant, i assume its a stronger make, to take the 400 bhp. I just like to sit in it, and listen to stereo, never heard anything like it.

What info would you like Redline???

Redline, you are on the right track, as its a viscous diff, so no difflock lever, just bought a mobile ramp of eblag, so will get it up in the air to see if 8 bolts, but not sure about 1:1, would be better if it was, as engine has enough power for it.
As for my pimped ride, apart from the 4-2-1 being to old so they keep cracking, i love driving it, its about the same colour as my old XR2 Mk1, but quicker and handles even better. I have been in all sorts of cars, and about the only car which out handles it was a Honda NSX. Its like a V8 go-kart. :twisted:
