It’s a GL320 CDI, apparently all GLs came with the off road pack in the UK bit it was an option on the ML, I’d just assumed it would be an option on all of them, not that it will get much of a work out when I have an 80 Series for that!.

Maybe we get let off if they’re Germanic, I mean I could have done worse and bought a Disco or Range Rover!. Funnily enough I was actively looking for a black one but the only ones out there were either too expensive or dog rough, so I settled for silver with a good service history and a decent...

So I picked up this Chelsea tractor, which surprisingly isn’t as much of a Chelsea tractor as I thought!, never knew they came with low range, locking centre and rear diffs and hill descent. It means I can start to mod the 80 with a lift, better tyres and suspension,bumpers and snorkel now...

I quite like the Touareg’s, with the V10 though I think it would come down to how much you feel comfortable DIYing. I know what you mean about a big multi cylinder diesel and air suspension, lovely things to drive, I used to have a TDV8 Range Rover, which unsurprisingly wasn’t great on...

Can’t blame you for taking a punt on that at that money. That engine is crazily torquey although terrifying to work on from what I’ve heard, lots of bits require taking it to bits?, I hope that isn’t the case for yours. I’ve previously owned the other version of these in a slightly posher dress...

I guess the best thing would be to import a 300 Series, can’t imagine that would be cheap though!.

Damn!, why didn’t I log in earlier and spot these!.

Hi Andy, not sure if it’s the same on the 80 and 100, but the small section with a bend in which bends over the chassis rail keeps hitting the underside of the car when we try to connect the section with the silencer to it, it just won’t get anywhere near where it needs to be unfortunately and...

It’s the mid section where it goes round the chassis beam more, trying to get it to join up and it just doesn’t work without touching something. We’re going to try again after work this eve as they’ve asked for some pics of where it won’t fit so I will post some up on here too. It looks a...

Just wondered if anyone else has bought one of these off eBay?, I’ve bought one and it says it follows original routing which it doesn’t bid as it comes in 6 pieces me and my mate just can’t get it to join up. If anyone else has had one of these I’d love to know how you managed to get it to fit...

That looks amazing, so much time and effort gone into it, hope it goes to a good home!.

That’s a smart 80.

Never driven an LC with RWD but have driven a Shogun with Mitsubishis Super Select system, tried a tank of fuel in 2H and a tank in 4H, the difference in fuel was so negligible and RWD so not fun in the wet in a big,heavy 4x4 I just left it in 4H nearly the whole time I had it, that was with...
