sunshine51 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Proper off-roaders HH.jpg We have a 2K6 LR very similar to this one in the shop at the moment undergoing maintenance & refit so we can take it on the road/off the road later this year. Ours is darn near exactly the same save the weapons mounts had to be removed per Customs orders but the mounts pedestals are still there & make great support for fluid heads. Work being done is replacing the axles with Volvo axles, some engine mods, beefed up suspension, having a canvass top made up($$$), and some creature comforts like a stereo installed & a 12vdc reefer! Ours is a kinda crap grey colour but who cares... Our current beastie who is sadly gettin old and needs much work done to keep her road-worthy. This pic is about 15 years old and taken in Malaysia after a wash job. But we're not gonna get rid of her....she just needs a lotta pricey parts to make her well again. Best damned vehicle I have ever owned. Edited January 28, 2014 by sunshine51 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

draggons Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 @Sunshine. Love landrovers, want to get hold of one at some point. Looked at a short wheelbase (90) in Rayong a couple of years ago, was in good condition but the guy wanted 900K for it. Will get one one day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked at a short wheelbase (90) in Rayong a couple of years ago, was in good condition but the guy wanted 900K for it. Will get one one day Landies are bloody pricey here matey and so are replacement parts if you want original LR kit. That's why many LR's here have have a hodge-podge(sp?!) of Japanese kit in them because it's way cheaper. Malaysia is a great source of parts but some mechanics there are dodgy because they just don't know. Mal has a long history with LR's from the colonial days...however with that said...they ain't cheap down there either but parts are fairly reasonable. When I bought Giselle in Kampooch back in 1994 brand new she cost me 25K USD (tax exempt) with pre-delivery inspection. 110 LR Defender w/ V6 turbo diesel & 2 sets of run flat tires-10 total. No aircon, no power steering...but I finally had my own instead of driving somebody else's or a company truck. She still has no aircon and is a bit sick but help is on the way. She's a strong girl. The nice thing about LR's is that no matter what wheelbase you settle for...you'll be very happy! Plus there's much more to be happy about but I'm not getting paid by LR to promote such a fine product am I...hah! When you get yours....have fun & enjoy.
