Job Jobbed!


(note: you're not allowed to modify it too much, that reaks of "trying too hard". So, a subtle suspension lift and a set of new wheels and slightly larger than std tyres and you're done!)

What you really need is a Supercharged V8 Land Rover like this one:



This is a JE Engineering Zulu with a 4.2 V8 with 480bhp! And you can buy one here: http://www.jeengineering.co.uk/zulu.html

But you need to make it look more like this:

If anything, those mods are too much, an exterior that looks untouched but with a 5.7v8 (+ hidden side exit exhausts) may be the answer. Pass the hammerite and checker plate.

Edit: and the BFG radial all terrains with white lettering of course

From the smoker barges thread

Audi S6 Quattro 4dr Tip Auto Saloon 4.2 2004 £6,000 now

340bhp V8

http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2012...

Edit:

All though I have to say a giant 2-stroke diesel pickup truck is about as manly as you can get , it's a brutal torque manual fuel drinking truck-like shifting way to drive.

8.0 or 8.2 I think....

On which note, close the thread:
Yes 8 litre. Which went up to and 8.3, then an 8.4 on later models.

MB 600 (W100) in SWB? Breshnev had one, the last Shah too.

Maybe as 2-door coupe as Nallinger liked it?

Fantastic and very manly, until someone asks what it is. Then you reply with one of the most beautiful names in history.

Best being able to reply with something manly like Trevor.

I bought this last month...



A 5.8 V12 has got to be worth a few PH points biggrin
Agreed a few points but I see your AUTOMATIC 5.8 that weighs 2 tons and raise you a manual, 6.0 V8 that weighs 1.3 tons that I bought last month





wink

Admittedly its possibly too pretty to be called "a manly virile monster" but it sounds fantastic
