I love landies.. but could never afford to own one. That 100inch(?) Rangie with the full roll cage is lush.

[img] [/img]

Not mine, this is Flowerpower's..

Kenneth - very nice looking that effort.

z1ppy - the Rangie was 100" standard ( and also the disco - essentially same chassis ). The full cage one looks like a bobtail effort of chopping the rear overhang off.

I am liking this thread a lot. HexhamStu loving your Ford Pick-up so much so I now have a picture of a lightning as my laptop background. Keep em comin'!

Chelsea Tractor?

Another works Freelander. I think this one went past it's recommended wading depth 🙂 Women drivers eh 😉

<speechles> WTF happened</speechless> I thought Scaled's photo, looked like a 4x in a dodgy position...

Fisha.. I stand corrected, it's been a while since I drooled over "landrover owner", and though the forward control 101 was the only 100 incher, my mistake.

Not 100% sure other than she was a new starter had no 4x4 training so shouldn't even have been driving a 4x4 but she was backing up on top of the bank trying to turn around and ended up in the dyke.

Got to admit she got it nice and square.

😆 oh working in the E.A. is a riot 😉 good work with the boom 🙂

Well it's 4-wheel drive... mk1 Audi TT

Now sadly sold as we needed the money for a house deposit...

pictonroad - tell me about the dodge - is it a dodge ram (early one) or a dakota?

what engine is it,

you must be getting bored of it and be thinking of selling it ?

Some fabulous 4x's on here, Zeus's Landy is wonderful, the suspension is outrageous!
Angus, I don't know how close to the middle of nowhere your top pic of the Tuareg was taken, but it looks like the litterbug emmets even get out there, judging by the empty water bottle tossed on the ground! Looks like a fun place to drive, though.

Anyone ever shipped a pick-up truck from canada to the UK before? Tempted to bring the F150 home with me!

I've got a J plate Fourtrak.
It's called Dog.
It had a bust head gasket but still starts and runs first time, evertime.
It's now being fixed :O)

That was recent, which region you in?

5.2 litre magnum V8 Dodge Dakota. Bored? God no, it's amazing, it will however be for sale near Christmas if you can wait........

Litter is the ruin of this country, even in the middle of nowhere. In fact, I think the black plastic bag may be the national flower of Jordan.

nice, thats the big lump in the dakota aint it

drop me an email when its going - bigharleyduck(at)hotmail.com

The last time I saw a Landy on the end of a piece of string, my Forester was puling it out of a ditch in the snow. Lucky he had a winch on the front...

Pictonroad i'm in the Anglian region, the pic was sent to us on the day it happened. Just glad no one was hurt.

My D2 over looking the Mawddach estuary last year.

If anyone wants a camp site for next years Dyfi then can I recommend Bwlchgwyn Farm just across the estuary from Barmouth. Stunning place.

When she was a hard top

[IMG] [/IMG]

Holyzeus, I can't tell you how much I want your Landy! How much travel does the suspension have, the articulation is amazing?

Its nothing spectacular TBH, a 2" lift and dislocation cones so that the springs reseat correctly.
She's a full on competition motor, not touched her for 18mths 😥

Competition motor... that's for sale? 🙂

And uh... what the hell is with the thread-spanning Orange adverts eh grant way?

[img] [/img]

Looks tiny there.

Chojin, if the lottery coughs up, I'll play Scissors, Paper, Stone with you for Zeus's Landy!

Trail-rat, if you can keep the hard top.
You lose all practicality going to a truck cab
