3.9 RangeRover Disposal

[red5]

Evening Shitersâ„¢

 

Spring clearout time -

 

1x 1990 3.9 v8 Auto Range Rover Vogue offered.

 

Tax just ran out - can tax at buyers expense etc etc

 

6 months Mot remaining.

 

Working - more then not....

Mostly, no A/c or slide on the electric sunroof. CDL cycles sometimes until you operate passenger front door. Blower resistor kaput - only works on '3'

Thermostat removed by previous vendor - tin foil radiator blind expertly crafted by me at a cost of nothing.

Wheels powder coated .Approx 80-90 % of brake pipes replaced for last Mot. Welded in the usual places. Brownish velour in reasonable nick.

Both tailgates replaced recently - oddly hrw doesn't work, but most of the heated front screen does.

One new d/p, new centre and rear exhaust for last Mot - needs other d/p welding or replacing as it blows slightly.

Had new dizzy vac advance unit fitted,new air filter and 2 oil and filter changes since I purchased it.

Generally tidy - some crusty bits/dents.

 

2nd gear sometimes selects/shifts with a thump, only on light throttle. Suspect filter blocked/blocking. Drained some of auto box oil out and replaced with correct and it improved.

 

Apologies for blur-o-vision, new phone. Will get better in morning.

If you got a bit pissed you could always pretend it reads 'Gravy Train' and sell it to some racist knobhead from the BNP who would use it to tour round sink estates spouting bile out of a PA system.

[gadgetgricey]

Always fancied a RR, so interested in better pics in the morrow.

 

Only down the road in Halesowen, so might see you the weekend

 

Cheers

Fack me, I would be on that like a bad smell if not for the fact that I am facing skintage on V8 petrol bills.

This has made me done a LOLZ.

[red5]

Will post better pics early doors lads.

[Albert Ross]

I would also be over it like a rash..... a big one. But i'm a cheapskate and don't like coil springs. Apart from my lethargy and leaf spring fetish, it looks well wobbly from here.

[red5]

Comapred to my leafer fronty, and indeed the coiler it is I guess, it's had new springs recently as well, so it sits properly which will be clear in better pics...I hope.

 

Edited for any vague attempt at making sense.

[cort16]

That looks brilliant, I don;t think I've ever seen a red RR of this vintage before.

[red5]

More pics up - follow da link !

Any serious interest please let me know - would rather she stayed together than broken.

 

Am in all morning, can be in afternoon if anyone wants more pics or a test etc.

 

Cheers, Sam

I am most unwisely talking myself into it, but would not be able to take the car until I move to deepest Grockleshire from London in a month from now. I will go away and hit myself over the head with a large tin of Hammerite, and see if this brings me to my senses. Whatever the outcome, thanks for the excellent Rangey porn.

Bloke, you have mail.

Bloke, you have mail.

 

I believe the reverse to be true as well, old bean.

[richardthestag]

Bloody hell, if i didn't already have one and a mrs that wont let me have another id be all over that like a cheap argos duvet!

 

I reckon a monkey for that is bargalicious!! the motor on its own is worth more to the OMG my Sherpa convertible is too slow brigade..

 

good luck with selling it intact

One life - live it.

[dollywobbler]

If I'd not just bought a Mercedes, I would have bought this. Not sure if that's a good or a bad thing! VALUE.

[Guest]

Dudes, step AWAY from the thread. Bagsy.

[Guest]

I may possibly be having to have an, er, interesting conversation with Mrs Breadvan at some point later today.

 

I will report back later to say whether or not my bollocks are still attached to the rest of me.

See my post above. You will need to start wearing camouflage combat strides and aviators.

[Guest]

What do you mean, "start wearing"?

[Cheggers]

What did she say?, can you buy it?, is she now using your bollocks as a windscreen ornament?

[Guest]

All that I'm saying is that I'm glad I kept that nice velvet lined box that the Christmas cufflinks came in.

why? is that where you are going to hide the Range Rover keys?

 

[Guest]

Alas, the space may be needed for somethings that are more, er, frangible, but, hey, now I have a plan: If I hide the keys and lie through my teeth about everything, she will never notice an enormous bright red car parked up and/or exploding and/or dissolving right outside the house, er, will she?

[fotorabia]

 

Buy it BV..and we can come round and crack some beers when your balls have been made into a handy opener..

[Guest]

The day of the bollock bottle opener is getting closer. I have now seen this fine contraption (the Rangey,not the bollocky opener), and can confirm that it possesses many excellent car-like qualities including wheels, doors, brakes,and stuff. Coming soon, I hope, an epic tale of terror on the M5/M42/M40.

[brickwall]

Can't be any worse than my M74, M73, M80 ride home. It was like driving a jelly.

[Guest]

This mighty product of Solihull is now paid for and taxed (thanks, Red5, you are a mensch), and ready for collection at some point this week. I add that I am also from Solihull, and also a bit old and knackered, so this could be a marriage made in heaven, or maybe the other place.
