Mines a 1992 80 series manual gearbox. 360,000 miles and still my daily drive, works for a living towing. Injectors and pump refurbed around 300.000 As was feeling a bit lethargic. Cheers, Mark

No worries Karl, the 80 won’t be going anywhere even if I do have time to find a nice 100. Nearing the top of the to do list Frank. Cheers, Mark

She has been in a state of maintain and restoration since I have had it. The owner before me wouldn’t have cosseted her like I do, so I have had times where it seems I am always doing something to it. I’m not far from being mechanically tip top now, then it will be a tidy up on the bodywork. The...

Thanks guys, I think the same Clive, using them keeps them going. Even when the mrs 120 is around and I want to pop to the shop I still jump in the 80. I keep looking at 100 series, but end up thinking nah I’m alright for now. Cheers, Mark

Hi all, This happened on the way to work this morning. Bit of a landmark I guess. Passenger took the picture. Good old girl, my daily drive and tow truck. I reckon she is good for another 350.000 Cheers, Mark

Looking good Declan. Some good work going on there, all looks good. Them new bfg’s do look good. I’ve just had some fitted to my lc120 and now want them on the 80. Trouble is they aren’t even half worn yet. Cheers, Mark

Total recall last night, not the proper Arnie one. Not as good as Arnie but Kate Beckinsale made up for the little Irishman’s efforts. I don’t think anyone can make an action film like old Arnie these days. Cheers, Mark

Tonight it’s been the book of Eli. I liked it, with Denzel Washington. Cheers, Mark

348000 and going good, just had injector pump and injectors overhauled, got her back up on her toes a bit. Still my daily driver and still earns her keep pulling cattle and such. Cheers, Mark

My mate who has a body shop only asked for a grill, he reckons he can repair the bonnet. It’s how my luck runs at the moment, spend £600 on some new tyres and why not throw another few hundred at an unexpected bill. Still not as bad as the mrs keeping on about it.

Had these bad boys fitted on the wife’s car last week. Even got it washed for her on way into work. Where one of my drivers proceeded to reverse an 18 toner into the front of it. Happy days..... Cheers, Mark
