Behold!! that which shall henceforth be known as my Td5!!


Ta-dah! I've just bought myself a 2002 Td5. It's not a runner right now but I'll get to that in a later post. Hopefully it's just a fuel pump issue.

This will be my second, I've had a landrover before, but it was a 1997 300tdi, and it set the bar pretty high. Of course it did all of the usual landrover peculiarities i.e.

1.The lights worked when they felt like it.
2.Any part that carried oil, leaked it.
3.The bulkhead t'were rusty like nobody's business.
4.There was that 'knock of death' coming from below.

But, that aside, I loved it and anyone that's owned a landrover before knows that owning a landrover is an intricate love-hate relationship, and you'll never be satisfied with a lesser vehicle again.
