Evening,

Names Greg, had to sign up to improve my Terrano knowledge.

I've got a 95' (Same a me) SWB Terrano 2 2.7 at the beginning of the year and fell in love with it. It's a great example, (Nearly) full service history and only 58000 miles on it. we had pretty icy conditions end on Jan and it never got stuck and even rescued our neighbors Disco :lol

It's sorn'd at the moment as Im driving a van most days for work. still using it around my Dads farm, mostly for hauling logs up from the woods. Pulls like a train.


I am looking smartening it up though so thought I'd check this place out.

I will have (lots of) questions but give me a few months to read all the post on hear :lol

Cheers :thumbs

Hi Greg and welcome, I still have a few T2 bits kicking around including front wings, I have gone over to a Patrol now and loving it, but Mrs still has an excellent example of a LWB T2, where in Sussex are you, Rick

Hi Rick thanks for the Welcome. I'm in a Small village called Five Ashes just outside Heathfield, I see your in bexhill so only abut 30 mins from you, well maybe 40 in the Terrano :lol

You don't happen to have an ariel do you? mine is stuck halfway...

Cheers

Electric ariel? is it a Mav? never seen one on a T2, but sorry no I do not have one, Rick

Is it in the OSF wing? if a T2 must be an aftermarket one, Rick

No idea about the wheels, again assumed they were original.

I'd like to get some steel ones in the future.

Thanks for the offer Rick, I'll send you a message later.


and cheers Zippy!

Looks like this will be going back on the road pretty soon, my job may be going mobile so I may end up using it as my work truck.
