Re: My slightly knackered old cars

That's a great collection of shite and not so shite cars. I love the merc so if it's ever for sale give me a shout please.

Those brats are becoming very pricey when sorted so well worth trying to fix up the beige one.

They have lowered gearing to help acceleration when the 100 gallon tank was full. One ton chassis with 900 x 16 tyres on the hard to find and increasingly expensive 569203 or 569204 deep dish rims.

Here are some of my other things that I play with or just store until I retire and have time to do something with them. https://i.ibb.co/26H6TzF/IMG-0785.jpg https://i.ibb.co/GnWvmpR/IMG-0908.jpg https://i.ibb.co/4V5JWWR/IMG-0695.jpg https://i.ibb.co/5TwbqJj/20180102-120051.jpg https://i.ibb.co/zmX8...

Re: Drum's motorised conveyances

One of the good things about ex MOD LRs is the fact you can find old photos of them in their former glory. They all left HCB Angus painted red, then were given the appropriate paint job depending on which force they were deployed to. https://i.ibb.co/ynvkR2C/IMG-1269.jpg https://i.ibb.co/QKqq6vJ/IMG...

Yes, Mr Cento of the beige.

£400 so not too dear and I had the Volvo money burning a hole in my pocket.

Re: Drum's motorised conveyances

I spotted 16 on a lapsed gumtree advert. It as in London, 450 miles away and, with the help of an AS member, I had it shipleyed up the road.
It had featured in some real estate promotional posters in that London.

Re: Tomorrow I'll mostly be collecting....

I'm undecided about what to do with it, so probably nothing for several years, as per. I have a 109 with a petrol engine that could use the tdi, but I prefer series LRs to have original engines cos LR snob. I could keep it as is and trailer it to pay n play off road sites.
