Look what I brought
« on: June 11, 2007, 13:08:01 »
Picked this up at the weekend drove 589 miles round trip to do so must have been mad.
Saw it last year on Ebay but it went to high then saw it again the other week so went for it ,not sure what Iam going to do with it yet .
Now need to sell some other 4x4s to make some space so look in the for sale section very soon.

I agree it is quite ugly thats the appeal of it I think.
Did not drive it back home it just  about fitted on my trailer but it dose run quite well has been fitted with Tdi200 engine and box disco axels the gear change will need some getting use to.

Yes it dose have power steering most of the parts seem to have come from a Disco or range  rover.
So its got a 200tdi engine and box disco axels with the inportant disc brakes gear change is some thing I will have to get use to the linkage is 6feet long when the conversion was done the engine was mounted back so  nearly a mid engined 4x4.
