please reed all of this if you stop halfway you might get the wrong idea about me
Hi all my name is paul, mates call me Stabs, or Rocky i've only just joined but finding this website of great use to me, i'll tell you a little about myself at the risk of being run over at a meet or booted off the site i must confess i am 1st and formost a landrover defender 90 fan i've had 4 up to now and i have had great fun i've had them side ways, upside down up to the window sill's in a river and crushed by a 14tf fall backwards.
i love them however i have one major problem i buy one i take it to pieces rebuild it then kill it.
I've been looking for a little more comfort and style in a 4x4 and something that i won't instantly stip down to nut and bolt and suprisingly i settled for a 2002 2.7td ex durham county council van in yellow with flashing light bar and warning livery covered rear door.
why you might ask? well it caught my eye surely thats enough it has good running gear big wheels ( second set off road tyres already on order) a heater that works (not standard on a LR) and big comfy seats and the one thing that i have craved so much on those long cold wet days greenlaneing CUP HOLDER! yes a cup holder no more hot tea over the twins when out driving.
Anyway i'm loving it although it is causing me some problems at the minute got the odd problem or two but luckerly the seller is willing to do some of the work to save his embarrisment on ebays feedback pages.
So heres my plan carry out a few modifications get it all ship shape keep my eyes peeled on here for a few meetings and see what the old van can do, so i'm looking forward to meeting some people and getting out and about with like minded people don't hold the LR thing against me i'm open minded and maybe you guys can convert me
i'm looking forward to it
Had help on here already with water in footwell so thanks to those that replied big help
