thanks mate....

hello to all . i come here through the direction of mr zippy . i have been an avid land rover fan for many years now and have fixed them soo many times . dont get me wrong i still love my land rovers but my life is changing a little i feel and it maybe time for a change.

i have had a shogun in the past and paid heavily for owning it too. i have always had a soft spot for the patrol but dont know an awful lot about them so trying to learn as much as i can before deciding which to go for,.

my plan is this, and it is only at the planning stage at the moment

purchase a series land rover than i can batter around as i see fit and then purcahse a patrol for normal daily duties and holidays etc with some gentle lanes in between. if i want to play hard then the poor old series will take it

well thats the plan anyway......

Hi Denviks,
My first 4x4 was a Y60 4.2 auto Petroll that was fantastic all through this winter. Unfortunately had to sell it ( cash needed ! ) through no fault of it's own apart from it's heavy drinking problem.
I am due to pick up a diesel Auto 4.2 on thursday hopefully for keeps this time!!
Are you after a Y60 or the newer Y61??
