Hi all,my names Dan and I've recently signed up,been lurking for a little while.
Not a LC owner yet but on the look out for the right spec 80,have looked at a few but as yet not found 'the one'.
I'm a mechanic for a mid sized local coach firm and have had Landrovers since I've been old enough to get in one. I've done many big diesel conversions to Disco's and RRC's,most recently an sl35 Mazda into a D1 which was great! I then bought a D2 to transplant the Mazda into and have been driving the truck around for the last 6 months or so with the dreadful td5 POS in which has put me off completely! I then had a moment of clarity if you like and realised its a lot easy to go and buy a ready made,big engines,reliable 4x4?
It has to be diesel so that only really leaves one choice? Hence here I am!
Its a great community you guys have here and once I've found the right truck I hope I'll be helped and be helpful to other members as my truck probably wontbe staying completely standard,its a habit I have!
Well that's enough for now,Merry Christmas to all and I look forward to 2013 LC ownership!
