Latest Patrol owner - oops I've done it now!

[Thomas-the-Terrano2]

Well been out for a day trip, bit of a trek from Sheffield to Oldham but worth it.

late 2000 X reg SE found on auto trader, real beauty been cherished only 66k
on clock, 2 owners.

offered a grand fo the T2 so took his hand off and thats with recent accident
damage too not fixed yet.

its got the 3.0 litre which sounded sweet and was clean compared to an '03 we
viewed yesterday. Also features dark tints, dixon bate ball/pin hitch and twin
electrics so ready to haul, can't wait to pick it up next week.

Zippy656 do you want first refusal on the front hitch still?

on his land these days!

not sure yet when going back maybe thursday, or weekend depends on getting covernote

OMG Alan, its a monster, but then so was the t2 when we got it.

Paul, I cant believe was so close to you as said before will let you know, thanks for
the confirmation of the dealer, certainly seems a straight family guy, was showing me
an old 160/260 ytpe he has with high roof. 42 diesel and auto on an L reg family bus!
also a rangey classic restored ground up.

 

[dinky]

Saw it and arranged with JJ to go see it ,but not to be so enjoy it will keep looking.:thumbs:clap

 

[Thomas-the-Terrano2]

the 'eagle' has landed!

well got the new beast home, lovely run over woodhead, the 3.0 pullinging an extra
half tonne of truck easily, hardly feel 70 mph, no rattles, squeaks or bangs. Tbh is
much better ride than t2 wish had upgraded long ago, mind its wide gonna have to
take care on some lanes.

only fault is 4wd green light is on but deffo in 2wd on lever, gonna jack front end
up make sure its not a hub dragging, more likely a dicky switch.

As Dave has said get yourselves to the rally, we haven't seen you for a while

Check the switch for the 4x4. You will probably find water has got into it and thats why its on????
