So what is the best land rover that Land rover ever built
@HarryMorton-w8c Ай бұрын
I love my 300 tdi 1998 LWB 12 seater it’s my umpteenth Landrover , I can even get 30MPG . I’ve owned several S3 ( still have one) . Also owned a series 2A 6 cyl loved it but not the fuel consumption. Had a LWB 2.1/4 diesel dreadfull, had a 12 seater safari 109 broke it for parts some of it still live on in my S3 SWB. ( the engine) sold a S3 at Mathiesons dec 2022. Good price £ 8600. Was in pretty good order. Gave away my other S3 ( owned for 20 years ) was an ex coastguard £1,500 . To much work to restore it. Also owned a classic Range Rover v8 gearbox gave up chap gave me £600 for it 2014. Bought a SWB TD5 for £3,500 2002. British car Auctions 2011. Good van fitted windows and side facing rear seats sold it 2014 £6,500 thought I did well. Probably worth twice that now. Then I ran a freelander 2 bought BCA was an HSE lovely car but struggled to tow my boat ( 20 foot Bayliner) then traded it for a Mitsubushi shogun ( brilliant car) excellent for towing. During lockdown I was persuaded to sell the Mitsubushi as I was told they would drop in value was a 2011. That was a mistake. They are still selling at the price I got for it. Anyway I am back with my 300 tdi 12 seater ( wife hates it) who cares! O and I also love my latest purchase L 322 what a machine , only issue is it’s size when parking. I love my landrovers . Owned them for 40 years . O I forgot I also owned 3 discoveries first one 200tdi best car I have ever owned during my lifetime. Then. TD5 discovery bit of a pig lots went wrong with it. Think I was just unlucky. I managed to rescue a 200 series discovery and it is still running those of you in the club will probably see it sometime it’s with a well known member. Cheers guys.

100% keep the EAS - we are going to retrofit EAS back in the LSE that we have, a previous owner downgraded to coils. If you buy height sensors for £120 from any of the main vendors at the moment, they supply what appear to be P38 sensors but with a modified bracket. P38 sensors are about £40, and the only difference is the mounting bolt pattern. Someone smart has come up with a mounting plate to translate from P38 to RRC and is uplifting the price massively.
@WonkyWillowWorkshop 2 ай бұрын
My concern was that the output readings for the P38 would be different but I guess EASunlock can be used to address any issues there. Will be a learning curve :)

Please please please keep the EAS!!!! The system is similar to the P38 which it was designed for by LR. The real problem you will have with converting an EAS can back to springs is the boge high control is not there so you sort of end up with a bit of mongrel…. If the system is working then I’d say replace the bags yes 30 years of wear and tear on rubber bladders is understandable. The pumps and dryers aren’t that dear now either as they are simple P38 items. I watched your first episode and was yelling at the tv to SHUT THE DRIVERS DOOR so the system would raise for you !!! Hahah it’s a safety feature the system will freeze if the doors are open. You are probably aware of this by now. Good luck with this lovely original classic !!!!
@WonkyWillowWorkshop 2 ай бұрын
:) you were not the only one shouting "SHUT THE DOOR" at the screen. Yeah not having the Boge system would mean air ballons for when towing, not great idea at all, will persevere.

Bent the chassis, both doors and roof. I pulled it out in my back yard, new doors and roof, re-bent the chassis on a home made jig, made from a factory roof stanchion found in the scrap skip, and a winch bolted to the concrete floor. It was still mot'd, and not on the insurance register. One of three Rangerovers I bought down there over time.

That Landrover might be the reason I became addicted to the brand. I remember seeing one in the early 60 at my grandparents farm on Lismore and wanted one. I still have various landrovers 2 on Lismore I have been driving them since 1984. A long list started with a 6 cyl 109 to many to mention still have a 110 12 seater a series 2a ( bitsa) a series 3 and reciently a RR l322. ( love it by the way) keep landrovering.

You forgot the engine and gearbox. The axles are actually genuine article, they were precursors to those used on the 90/110s. Maybe not for the purists but the mods make it a much more driveable and useable machine that gets plenty of annual mileage under its belt as opposed to sitting in a shed.
