Trust me tom it wasn't that price.
That bloke on suzuki club was acting like he owned it to try and make the money to buy and steal the goodies.
It was triple that price mate trust me.

The guy on Facebook had seen it it my mate marks workshop, he's a land rover bloke. He wanted the winches and wheels and tyres. His plan was to buy it and have them, but when he advertised it mark didn't even know !! He rang me in the morning and asked me if I was interested, and I went along and bought it.
I Got home and the car I'd just paid for was for sale lol
Anyway, here we are. My plan is to tidy it up, bolt the whole thing back together, paint the cab and doors and chassis NATO green. 2pk black the rest. There's a couple of bits which need doing to make it a real mean truck. I am selling the winches and wheels and tyres, il sell it on just lawn rover standard ish ones.
Paul's painting it, will look sweet. I have some other bits to set it off as well. Stay tuned

My minds made up.
Too much land rover for me. Don't get me wrong it's a mean truck. And will be very caperble.
It's just not for me.
But we are going to make the best of it and let it go

That is a nice truck. This thing about some joker trying to sell it in pieces without even owning it - somewhat dodgy!!!
