What a great thread. And what great cars they are. I have been a fan since they were first launched back in 1970. Here are a couple of my early two doors, both Suffix A , one a Davos white car and the other Masai Red. Such good colour names as well. There must be a little room at Land Rover where someone spends all day thinking up names for colours!
Absolutely wonderful looking cars. Do I remember reading an article about your Davos White RR in LRM some years ago? Also something in Octane rings a bell. Stunning cars.vanquish spirit said:
Indeed you are quite correct the Daos car was in both magazines and amusingly made it onto the cover of Octane for the "cool" issue along with James Dean and Steve McQueen. I think that's pushing it a bit though
Indeed but some people do insist that James Dean was cool. DonkeyApple said:
That's another point. Have you checked the spark IGs to see if the engine is running lean?
Also, if the timing is a little too retarded then this can cause the engine to run hotter?
I'll check the plugs when less hungover and see if I can find someone to check the timing.m thanks for all the suggestions.Also, if the timing is a little too retarded then this can cause the engine to run hotter?
I did manage to mend the driving light and fix the rear seat locking mechanism though....

Great thread. They are more and more on the streets of SW london, even my kids are noticing them.
Anyone know of any uprated Anti rollbars for air sprung cars?

I'm fitting the standard front and rears to my 72 in due course.
Well, figured I might join in this discussion
I currently own 3 of these fine machines, one I posted a rebuild thread of on here, a 1991 CSK. I also have a 1981 In Vogue that needs some attention although not anywhere near as bad as the CSK did. Last night I went to collect my latest addition, a 1993 Vogue SE Auto with brooklands bumpers on air.
I shall post a few photos of the recent one when I get a chance to take some, might even venture down a few greenlanes this weekend.
