After being in a pile up on the freeway which totalled my ford focus i was forced to find a car fast. I owed on the ford and was only given a few thousand dollars to get another from the insurance company. I asked a really good friend of mine John Gadd, an avid rover dude if he had anything for me. He told me to come by that he had a classic 91 county edition range rover. I admit I did not know anything about the history or perfomance of landrovers but once inside i fell in love. I was definately bitten by the rover bug. I love it bone stock but have allready began modifications, brush bars hella lamps, ect... I think next on the list is roof rack. (anyone have one for sale that would fit?) Anyways after driving many cars in my life i believe i finally found the truck i've been looking for. Big boxy noisy gas guzzlin fun!!!
Welcome aboard. And welcome to the addiction. Get yourself on meds, quick. I can't believe anyone would actually admit to having owned a focus, though. Brave man. Enjoy the truck, that's a great model you acquired.

Take it slow. Get some workshop manuals.
And WELCOME to <strike>VEGAS</strike> Land Rovers.

Enjoy but hold out on the blingcessories like lights and a roofrack until you get to use the truck a bit. I think you will find you would rather have spent the $$$ on springs, shocks and tires. A as crusty Rover mechanic told me "A rack full of lights will just show you where you're stuck."
