Newbie from Scotland

[Clydebuilt]

Hi folks

New member here, just saying hello.

Little bit of background, I ran a 2010 3.0 invincible D4D Hilux for 12 years , got to around the 140k mile mark before it finally rotted and had to go ...thanks to the good old West of Scotland roads...but a change in circumstances nowadays which means no need for a pickup, and the only other alternative I want is an LC for outdoor pursuits. Always wanted one

Thinking of anything from 2004 to 208/9 depending on condition etc etc but first port of call will be a complete underside clean, antitrust and protect task. I learned the hard way

Seems a great forum with fantastic resources

Cheers
Cb

Good call Clydbuilt, but not too near coastal areas where they could have been used as boat launchers, eh ?
