This was my old ride which sadly will have to sold

Are all of the Greenlanes in the UK this picturesque? These pictures look like they should be photo postcards or possibly Land Rover advertisements. Beautiful scenery and great looking rigs.

I’m very jealous (as are most US Rover enthusiasts) as to the availability of different models that never made it to the US. Love the Discovery 2-Door.

Thanks,
Keep 'em coming.

Hello all,

Here's my 1982 88-inch diesel:



(the L-plate isn't there anymore!)

The engine is a 5-bearing 2 1/4 unit which was overhauled exactly a year ago and has not given any trouble since. Slow (60mph absolute top speed) but steady and excellent off-road:



It's currently being converted from a Hard Top to a 7-seater 'Station Wagon'-it just needs the Safari roof fitting at the moment:

I can't post a picture, but the website my wife set up is on www.nickslandrover.co.uk

She has set up a small business creating commercial and private websites, and I think the site looks pretty slick. The 109 has had a lot of work put into it too. I'd love your feed back on both the vehicle (now undergoing chassis and bulkhead replacement) and the site.
