The Thousand Pound Range Rover

You could use the double-lottery method but only if all numbers 2-118 are assigned randomly too, nobody gets to pick a specific number. Kind of like a sweepstake. Probably still overly complicated to admin though.

 

Regular roffle at £40 a ticket?...

Easiest way to sell 118 numbers on one roffle draw is to effectively sell each number twice but with an ‘odd or even’ marker, then the winning number is the bonus ball number combined with the odd or even element of say the first number drawn.

My circumstances are changing so I really can't justify something like this.

I don't suppose you fancy a metallic beige Maxima and a medium sized wedge of cash?

Sorry I have all the cars I need at the moment , if I needed one I'd just keep this , I do really like it , my plan was to sell the B class and get Mrs wack driving the RR but having watched some of her driving on the dashcam she'd probably come home with a MIcra stuck to the front complaining it's making a screeching sound

It is rather bloody lovely isn't it?

The wife is actually considering this! but I'd have to sell our CRV, or the Jag

Thanks for that, it hasn't got those wheels on now, it's not perfect but for the money it's OK, it's 3 owner (including me) HSE with a lot of history , if somebody has the time, tools and skills they can be cheap to own as breakers are everywhere

 

I keep thinking of things I've spent money on , indicator and rear light changed because they were cracked, another £50, I bought some leather dye for the seats £40, new wipers £25, I'm getting depressed now, rubbed the door handles down ready to paint, front vent on top of the bonnet needs doing, scrape on NS wing that was there when I got it, rust spot on NS rear arch I primed because grey primer looked better than rust

Removed from sale, my mother in law might be going into a home so I've got work for it for a while as the tip have banned me in the van , cleared some stuff out of the garden and they got all huffy when I went back

4 SALE 4 REAL

 

I need a new van so this has to go

 

 

MOT valid until 28 April 2019

, no advisories , the tester did note it was a bit oily underneath and it does drip a bit if left for a few days  but it's not using any oil so I've just ignored it , they all do that sir

 

£2500

 

I've also got an android head unit I bought new but haven't fitted with dashcam and reversing camera BNIB and a carbon fiber kit to beautify the interior for an extra £500 or i can ebay those, the CF kit is about £400 from the US plus shipping duty VAT etc

I was looking at the LDV but they seem to be made of cast iron with an engine that sounds like it's from 1978

I thought you were sorted, It was the breakdown in the transit and 3 hours stuck on the M6 that's prompted this decision , I don't want to sell it but ,"if you're having a new van THAT will have to go" and a pointy finger

I'm going for a relay/boxer/ducato because they're the lightest , 250kg more payload than a transit

Been looking for 2 days , found a nice one, sold, found another, sold

I'm getting sick of seeing the same ones on various websites

Posted

You spent any time in one? They’re pretty uncomfortable.

 

Mine is fine for the rare use it gets but I’m not sure I’d want to spend every working day in one.

 

Welcome to have an “extended test drive” in mine if a L2H1 van is any use to you and you can get down to Gloucester

They can't be worse than a 210,000 mile transit with uprated rear springs

I did suggest to Mrs wack that she could drive the RR and I could sell her B class

 

That went down well , stern face and pointy finger

Bedford cf with a rover V8 is what you need!

Probably have a higher payload than this modern rubbish too, or a yank tradesmans van....

Sprinter or Crafter or death.

I do sort of agree but the problem is payload on the FWD crap vans is 200+ kg more than a sprinter or crafter though I am drawn to the crafter as I have some LED illuminated badges that say crafter on them

the breakdown and 3 hours stuck on the M6

 

 

What happened with it?

 

I don't think I can justify the purchase but I'll admit I'm tempted anyway

Posted

Split hose , not on the Range Rover , I've got a transit pickup , hose split at 5:40am , took until 7:45 am for egertons to come out , they recovered me to the services then about 9am the AA came out

 

Though the way the search is going I'd be better off keeping it as the prices dealers want for 4 year old 100k dropside vans is nuts

Posted

FFS chap!!

 

Anyone want to buy an X5?

 

Funny, the first thing I thought was why didn't Wack advertise this 12 hours earlier?
