Very nice series 3 and a very nice video. Thank you! I'm glad you also mentioned the fun just having one of these. I did a complete rebuild of a 1978 swb about twelve years ago and I remember all the parts being cheap then. Bought a galvanised chassis with the papers you need and started working. As I got many parts from a friend from England, the biggest problem for me was to find the parts necessary for LHD. These parts in the end came from al over Europe. Also mounted a capstan winch, overdrive, free wheeling hubs. Very satisfying to do. Tax free in the Netherlands as well and insurance is €5,00 a month. Still needs MOT (APK) here until it's 50 ears old, but passed "met vlag en wimpel" (without any advisory or whatever problem) again a month ago. Now mainly used for hauling fire wood and the odd job. Drive it with a smile!

@@hansbeens3625 Great story! It’s cool you still own it. My S2A makes me smile just looking at it. Every time I get it out, my wife wants to go for a ride. Fun is the objective when you have a hobby vehicle and this fits the bill.👌 Greetings from California.👍

Love it! They are certainly a conversation starter. Especially here in the rural California central valley. They are not presumptuous, so people are not afraid to come up and ask about it. Take one to a hardware store, auto parts store or gas station on a Saturday morning and you’ll make new friends. 👍I Garrandamtee it!👍

I've rebuilt three series landrovers, one of the most important things in my landrover toolbox was WD40 for all those rusted nuts bolts and screws 😂

I've got a Mk1 Mini and space in the garage for another classic and have wanted a Series Landrover for sometime, plan to buy myself one as a retirement present. Would you recommend the 2 1/4 diesel or would I be better going for a petrol, I'm guessing they're maybe not massively different in performance or economy?

Have always fancied at Mk1 Mini myself! I really do like my diesel for its simplicity and reliability. I also enjoy the fact that it’s now very much a minority with many having been removed for more modern lumps. Petrols will always be more desirable and are more powerful but less economical. Don’t look past a good diesel if you find one but do go for a good test drive!
