Quandary solved. Mrs rejn decided that she quite liked this, and the dealer offered a sensible part-ex on the old one (!), so this is coming our way soon!
I'm really excited about it! My first ever diesel vehicle, too!
Love the look of both of them, if you are thinking about selling the old one privately would you drop me a line with details / cost please, have a family member looking for a good one I'm really excited about it! My first ever diesel vehicle, too!

I know this car well, did you purchase it mid-late last year? If so, I am very good friends with the guy who purchased it from.I damned near bought this off of him but finances didn't quite work out at the time, I still regret not having it

I might be selling it in the next couple of months so, if you're still interested, let me know.

Cannock Chase ?
I took it to a pay and play site, where I decided to do the black route, rather than the normal red route. Upshot was:
- Snapped a spring hanger (easy to fix)
- Snapped a parabolic spring (easy to fix, but £££)
- Snapped a bit of the chassis (easy fix)
- Bent a steering rod (easy to fix)
- My mate pulled the handbrake on too tight and wrecked the linkages (cheap to fix, but the parts were proving damned hard to find, so we milled our own replacements
- While it was on the ramp in the garage, both front wheel cylinders leaked out over the floor.

Hi Ollie, I purchased it last April from a charming young guy down in Hertfordshire. I think his Dad had bought it and then given it to him. He was selling it to put his efforts into restoring an ex-army forward control Landrover.

Yup, that's the guy. A good friend of mine, hugely into his Land Rovers. Looking forward to getting to work on his 101.I might be selling it in the next couple of months so, if you're still interested, let me know.
Yes please, I would certainly be interested.

Mine was off the road for a month recently when the steering relay went - most of that time was spent trying to get the old relay casing out of the chassis until I gave in and rebuilt it in-situ

So, more of a Play and Pay site then?- Snapped a spring hanger (easy to fix)
