I appreciate that! Glad you enjoyed the video.

going up in value up up up

V8 and Transmission whine better than any Radio and is reassuring and heat passing up through the transmission tunnel is great !!

Very few videos do justice to the range rover classic like yours do . Great video

Does this car have a lift kit? It looks a bit high. Great vid though.

No lift kit, but I believe it is sitting on brand new suspension which usually takes a little while to 'bed in'. Great to hear you enjoyed the video. I will feature my own Range Rover classic and talk about the plans for it on the channel very soon.

They werent all that bad regards Rot !!! But could have been better protected - 5 galls of Factory applied Wax Oil would have improved things loads

Imports is gonna be LHD

It's still possible to import RHD versions from Australia, South Africa, New Zealand etc. Either way it isn't a huge job to convert an early model from LHD TO RHD and vice versa. Generally speaking a rust free import is going to be an awful lot cheaper in the long run than a rusty UK example that requires full restoration.

No way would i give 80 K for a CSK with terrible additions such as door cards and handles !!!- Gimme an Original Classic anytime

To answer your video title's question, no you shouldn't buy one unless a) you're an LR mechanic, b) you have a large discretionary bank account, or c) if the pleasure of being stranded away from home appeals to you. I had (b) before retirement but not after, so the RRC is now someone else's issue. The vehicle is a joy to drive when most everything works, but as an RRC enthusiast of mine used to say, "if you want reliability, buy a Toyota". Now let's discuss the merits of the Land Cruiser...

That hasn't been my experience at all but I do understand a Range Rover can quickly empty your wallet if you're paying a specialist when it decides to play up. Although almost everything is available cheaply here in the UK via next day delivery. As so many parts are shared with the Defender/Discovery, the RRC is very DIY friendly. Also these days very few are using an early two-door Range Rover every day, these are serious collectors items now. Interestingly I've had a few and none have really ever given any trouble and none have left me stranded. The Landcruiser I had ended up with injector issues, on another the air suspension failed spectacularly and it took weeks to get the parts and on both the underside corroded like nothing i've ever owned before. In my opinion, all cars go wrong eventually, so just buy what you enjoy.

@Fuel Up Classic Well stated! I should have also mentioned that I live in the States, so finding replacement parts at a good price is not always a possibility. Ebay has a large array of parts offered, but is always "buyer beware". Since there are so many Toyotas here, parts are plentiful and less expensive than LR, however, the thing I agree with is that a person has to pick something and be willing to commit to it.

Suffix F not much desirable? Well i can tell you they are. 4 doors are still low in price because these 4 doors rot even more then the 2 door.

@fuelupclassic

Жыл бұрын

In comparison to an early Suffix A or B the later Suffix 2 doors are not as desirable but still highly collectable, but those early cars are significantly more money and often snapped up very quickly when they come on to the market. They all rot, no matter the age.

@@fuelupclassic People focus on A or B but as you say all rot. Better find a later typ 1978 or 1979. Better build and more spec. i owe a mint, original 1978 German spec 2 door. Preserved to the max. Great car, worth a fortune. and many people make a huge mistake, restoring an A or B is far from cheap.

Looks stupid on that anachronistic black & white plate

Each to their own and if we all liked the same thing it would be a very dull world indeed. As this particular car is an early 1979 registered example, it is perfectly legal to display black number plates and in my opinion looks rather fitting. A later model, such as my 1987 example less-so.
