After 18 years of mutual love, it has become time to go our separate ways...
My wife and I went over to to get our D3 from Land Rover early 2007, and we have had it ever since. We have had our ups and downs, but we have pulled through. And we will never love another car as much.
Event vehicle from Bolivia. Everything kept as it was. I even fitted the Yaesu radio back (not supplied by LR).
Petrol V8, runs lovely. No issues over time.
Suspension, brakes, transmission, handbrake and so forth all have had the usual issues and have been dealt with.
From the original spec I have removed the net behind the seats, and one of the plastic molding on the mid of the rear left door is missing.
Total of 173 000km (105k miles).
I'm posing here on the club first before I post it online in Sweden (the home since 2007 for it) and in the UK. We still have the UK plates left (and copy of the original V5 papers). BN55WRF. Swedish reg nr FFG876. So easy to get back into the UK or rest of Europe.
Of course all documentation available, and "club certificate" you can find pictures on the club site.
Let me know if interested, and make offers!
I'll post some pictures in the whats up.
Current issues with the car are 3: The EPB gave up (gears), have gotten a new one and it its installed by local garage, but the have to Textbook and cannot reprogram, old one installed in the electronics to operate car. There is some rust in the rear end on the sills in the back doors (both sides). And I had the alternator exchanged, and that needs to be reprogrammed to (engine revs is idle now).
We found another on Autotrader today for 15kGBP, considering above as is I'll accept 13kGBP. There is direct ferry from our location to the UK...
Loads of gear to it and plenty of tires and spares.
