Oh yee of little faith!

I get wages, my mate works for himself so his time is money. In view of this I have decided to take this vehicle on myself.
 
Yes some parts need respraying and some need replacing and respraying, hence i need the colour, but mechanically it is sound. It has taken a few hours so far but i can't believe the difference already.

It sould be MOT'd next week [-o< then a good valet and hey presto \:D/
 
I'll post some pictures of the finished article

This might seem like a strange idea, but what about making a note of the VIN number and asking your local Land Rover dealer? (Assuming that the vehicle is in its original colour of paint.)
