    They are going up in value very fast so yes if you get to buy one at a good price then take it, A friend bought a 1992 Classic with 39000 miles for 21000 euro lately and ones with 150000 miles but in good con are heading towards 10000 euro/ pounds., they will increase a lot in the next few years as they are a true Classic and timeless piece.

    Looks great!! Love seeing the patina'd classics side by side. Having a weird issue with my d2 - vibration under power from 10-20 mph or so. Thought it was the front driveshaft so I swapped that and still happening. My first 4x4 so these things do still have some mystery to me.Ever experience something like that?

    I would check the bushings and tires first?

    Lol! You keep buying them up. Maybe some of your viewers (like me) would like to pick one up (cheap). They are the closest affordable (for now anyway) Land Rover relative, to the now stratospherically-priced Defender.

    I've nearly got the cam shaft in , on me range rover. Gone for a mild tuned cam. Its worth 25 horse and the same torque. But it does look as rough as a robbers dog(or should that be ruff?) 👍👍👍👍

    So I live in Virginia myself (Shenandoah County) and bought a ‘92 RRC for 500 bucks from a guy who drove them religiously. He put something like $9k into modifications like a 2-inch lift, a custom LuckyB bumper with a winch, a roof rack covered in Hella lights, and much more but seemed to neglect the rest of the car. The paint and undercarriage are in excellent shape, especially for the old girl’s age, but she’s experiencing a lot of engine issues and I was thinking of LS swapping it and gutting the interior and replacing it with home-made teak/walnut wood cuts. Any suggestions or thoughts?

    What was the cause of the EFI light being on? O2 sensors? Throttle Potentiometer?

    @@AddictedMotors Do you still own the Rangie? You should troubleshoot and fix the cause of the EFI light being triggered. They run better when there are no warning lights on. ☺️

    Should I buy an RRC? Ask these questions: Am I rich? Am I a mechanic? Do I like learning about fixing cars? Do I like breaking down?

    Great cars, but the video is difficult to watch - "Umm", "Ahh" "And Yeah, Umm". Just a little constructive criticism.

    Yeah... Classics are getting hoarded by wealthy resto groups/Aspens folks/England/European/ new Offroaders..... i used to get these old rot boxes for $2000... now, hard to find a rusted/busted non runner for under $3500!! Breakers are shipping the interiors/leather seat packages/dash/ drivelines to Euro breakers and making a fortune.... soon the beater stockpile in USA will be gone... AAAARRRRGGGG!!!

    Don't make videos if you don't know anything about these vehicles. They're not "Jeeps" you doughnut, they're far more. Example - the LT transfer case in the early models ALONE are worth their weight in gold. Very reliable and outlast most. You're doing reviews on something you know maybe 30% on. There's a reason why their values has gone up tremendously in the last year or so AND you didn't even know whether it was an aluminum or cast iron block.

    You’re right. I’ve owned over 20 RRCs, Discos, and LR3s. I must be brain dead. Sorry, fancy jeeps.
