I do have a soft spot for my old rangies, but these are fun - and cheaper to run.

the best bit is that patrols and mavericks don't have any Lucas electrics....

haha!!! you can build a land rover from scratch over here with brand new parts for £4000 and it'll cost me £1200GBP for a 3 inch dobinsons lift kit to go on the patrol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the old dears got a 90 with a diahatsu 2.7 diesel lump and preped for river wading!! but unfortunatly it chews through gearboxes like a lion at a cat flap!!!

a 3'' lift, lockers front and rear, 33x12.5 tyres then run over jeremy clarkson

I like the front bar. Better than a lot of the custom jobbies out there.

BTW so jealous of the snow. I lived in Bath for 3 years. Moved back home and THEN it started snowing!

haha!!! you can build a land rover from scratch over here with brand new parts for £4000

The downside is that you have to do it every week!

cheers for the thread replies!! clarkson could do with a run over! ha! mic i'll swap with ya!! aus is just such a patrol mecca compared to over here!! limie's are blindly obsessed with their land rover's it enough to make brunel cry!!! i've got tone's of pictures of landys with blown diff's, half shafts going pop, drop boxes deciding to literally 'drop' and enough f%&*ed up electrics to make southern electric wanna keel over!!!! most of my landy mate's have got either landcruiser axles and engines or hilux running gear i was offered over £9000 for my patrol for a landy project by some nutter with to much money!!!
Patrol's rule!! and i'm the only one luck enough to have one in devon!!! anyone other patrol owners in devon UK then message!!!!!
Rear bumpers made!! pics to follow tomorrow when your all sleeping!!!! ha!!
