2 80 series working hard.

All hooked on and ready to head to a cattle show yesterday.
Both are 4.5 lpgs. The white one is an OZ import manual just fitted the arches from an old one and the headlights last week for MOT.

Wow!

Great examples of the mighty 80, aren't they just the business?

Love 'em

One of their main attraction to me is their simplicity. Mine's a very basic European spec and that's basic, trust me! No fancy wood trim, no computers, no turbo, no nothing complicated! It's a tractor with a nice body on it! The most sophisticated thing on it is the electric windows & sunroof and the standard front & rear lockers. It has AC which kinda works, but could be better, but otherwise the mechanics are tip top. I don't have complicated rear disc brakes and AFAIK the rear shoes are the same ones fitted as new (340,000 km unlikely) but the workshop I take it to thinks they're original.

Beautiful car!
