Just got back from a simulated game shoot today, where we witnessed the awesome sight of a wild Range Rover hunting a herd of Defenders...

Which one did it catch?

Odometer sneaking up on 300,000 miles

300 TDi 110" Station Wagon

Original engine?

Plucked the engine out for a look over to see if the horrid tapping noises it's been making from cold for the past 12 months or so were anything terminal. Found a buggered cam and the rocker shaft and bushes were knackered. Thoroughly cleaned all oil ways and refreshed with what it needed. Whisper quiet now!


Replaced all sealing strips underneath the floor panels and lined the transmission tunnel with some sound deadening stuff, well worth doing.


Ready for another year of service

I believe it is, pulls well and does 28-32mpg depending on journey length.

Moved the series to its new home, have use of my gf’s parents garage to keep it under cover and dry while I rebuild it.

Now I need to shift over all the body panels, and all the running parts I’ve gathered.
Then order the rest of the running gear stuff...
And the autosparks loom...
And the new roll cage...
And tyres...
And paint it...

But apart from that it’s fine

Eighteen months on from buying a partly dismantled 2A and it's 99.9% finished. I have posted a few photos in this thread but here's where we are today. It's not concours and was never intended to be but I am very pleased with the results. original components and panels have been refurbished and reused wherever possible.

Lovely job, ready in time for sunny roof off adventure.

If my Series III V8 conversions looks as half as good as that, I'll be very happy. Just got the engine to plumb and wire before the body goes back on.

My 33 year old 110 at the Billing off road show last weekend.

My 1979 suffix 'F' restoration project!

Not mine but Mum popped down from Scotland to see me in one of their current daily drivers.

Very nice.

Just been detailed? Or low mileage garage queen?

The best of their P38 fleet of 3. They also have a Series 2a and a Series 3.

Just an interior shot from some work I did at the weekend. I do have a thread in GC than has been constantly updated since May 2012, but don't get many responses.



Hoping to get it on the road by the end of August so I can show it at a couple of local shows. Interior has had a lot of work!

"New" addition - the P38 is parked up in my father in law's barn just in case I need a spare Range Rover

Got a link? Don't think I've ever seen it.

It's only four pages, but quite picture heavy. Thanks for the interest though.

Thanks, I shall peruse at my leisure.
