Just want to provide an update on my landi. When I bought it had new spark plugs and every fluid flushed and changed. I had to flush the entire exhaust system. With five thousand miles on her she is performing perfect at 112,000 miles. some up dated pictures
I had this custom made and placed on both sides for fun

Oh dang. Didn’t you know the new Land Cruisers are coming out this year????

I kid. I kid.

I’m just mad because I had to buy a Honda mini van last week.

You better watch out driving that thing about Atlanta. Next thing you know we will have a bunch of rap songs about Rigbys.

And that seems to be on hell of a car!
But over here it will cost like 10-12 elephants so my old Disco will stay!

This is about a month old FB post. I don't do FB but one of my kids sent me this. A guy I worked with, now retired in south Florida, had a serious problem with a brand new Range Rover. He was driving down the interstate and the "Gearbox Failure" light came on and another warning stated "Stop vehicle immediately." He pulled over to the left shoulder and had the vehicle stopped within 30-45 seconds of the initial warning. The driver's side of the vehicle was already engulfed in flames, forcing him to climb out on the passenger side which was closest to oncoming traffic.

After exiting the now burning Range Rover, he called 911 and the firetrucks arrived extremely quickly, about 5 minutes. Too late, the Land Rover was toast.

I asked my friend if he was going to get another one and he said, probably not.

My neighbor restored an old "Merlin Perkins special" in a nice original green. Beautiful. I wish I had taken pictures before he sold it--it wasn't on the market long here in Dallas, TX!

 

[franzfmdavis]

LMAO!!! I just knew my friend IvW would pounce on me for this!!! I enjoyed it all week knowing this was coming and knowing he is probably correct…I just could not help myself!!!

Congrats!! Enjoy it…and add an Aston and Norton next!

How do you flush an exhaust system. I've heard of flushing a radiator or toilet but not an exhaust.
Maybe it's true Landys are

I kept getting a code for my manifold that turned out to be my catyltyic converter was clogged according to my cousin mechanic. I bought 2 bottles of catyltyic converter cleaner and ran through my fuel tank...perfect no more problem.

Yeah, I kept getting calls from the dealer offering me different colors. I held out until the color I wanted got allocated to the dealer. Will transfer the funds to a checking account in a few weeks and will be ready to close the deal the instant it arrives.

You are not supposed to do it until after you change the blinker fluid.

I changed my blinker fluid but now my lights short out. I must have flooded it.
I polished the dipstick for the oil, use Italian racing air in the tyres and shave 3 thou off the lug nuts. Now more economical to run.

Here it is, just picked it up. It is a sweet ride for sure. I have yet to try the massage seats. They wanted to give me the option of financing it with 0% down, so I could drive it out . Instead, I wired the funds and had to wait over the weekend for it to post to their account.

Maybe the next picture is climbing a waterfall? Or racing across the Sahara

Could be, once I get a few enhancements. Waiting on Westcott designs to get the rock sliders designed. Once that's done will get their lift kit to put 35s, comes with 33s, and put their rack on so I don't have to use girlfriend's jeep to ferry paddleboards to the beach.

Here is what they have done so far.
