Is it just me that thinks these look like good value? And are they?

I'm not in the market for one.

By the time you've added VAT, for that money, you might as well buy one from a dealer.

According to 'Land Rover Series 1 to Freelander by Graham Robson' these should have 67 bhp and 114 lb/ ft of torque. It's not going to set the world alight but it seems it would make a good workhorse.

The V8 is good but the weigh of the fker negates it!

Also quite top-heavy.

It'd be good for driving through the rough areas of town though wink

I viewed the snatch vehicles.They are well worn out. And quite a few of them require a major rebuild.As as previously been said.You really have to go along and view,as what you sometimes bid on.You dont normally end up with.
