The NZ army is selling of 100+ landrovers- all SWB V8s, in various states of preservation.



Somebody stop me, I'm SOOO tempted!!

Ideal! You get the Land Rover, Erich gets the Mini, and then you can park one in the other *chokes* when necessary to ride together!

UGH.

This from someone who rhapsodized about the handling of a sports car? One of these lumbering, lurching things for which "handling" is only a vague concept?

UGH.

You're thinking of a Jeep. This is a Land Rover, and with its low-slung chassis, aluminium V8 and alloy bodywork they're actually rather fun to drive.

Never having driven one, I bow to your experience - but it sure doesn't look like a low CG vehicle.

I guess you have the bike if you want to go out on something really nimble. ;)

Nice big V8 Defender with the hose-out interior, seating for 11 (if you want to call two large plywood shelves 'seating') and the ability to drag anything out of anywhere. Mmmm....

And each one comes with its own NZ army private, of your choice?

At least it's authentic.
That's about all I can say...you know how I feel about SUVs.
