I wish I could, £8000 would be absolute tops I'm afraid, love the truck by the way.

We moved to quite an idyllic little farm cottage [all right needs work] not really near anyone, no motorways, no dual carriageways, no train stations, nobody on the beaches if you know where to go, little traffic, Barn Owls flying round the field behind us in the evenings, it's fantastic.
Big downer is no investment in the area and no work, what little there is pays minimum wage but once you've got used to that little hiccup life's the best it's ever been Laughing

I do have real cash if anyone else is reading Thumbs Up

Thanks
Brian

Did I say lovely truck and if I had the extra I'd have given it to you Big Cry

I grew up in south east London and then moved out to Kent, I earn't well got a bigger mortgage new cars, self employed for 25 years. The company that I was sub contracted to [Whitbreads] relocated to Sheffield and all my contacts took redundancy, I found out then it's not what you know but who!
We had 15 years of a big mortgage left but could buy cash out of the equity up here, so not a lot of spending money but no mortgage and wouldn't change a thing, first time in 30 years my blood pressures been right Laughing

Will do but it's going to be slightly more than your budget @ £10,500

Have you checked out the October issue of Land Rover Monthly? There is a 90 TD5 for sale in the classifieds - 2004 hard top but with side windows and only 41,000 miles - £8,500. I thinks it's down south so may be too far for you but possibly worth checking out Question

Thanks Gabe

Just been offered a 90 county 2000 for £7500, I'm actually begging the seller for some more pic's [you have to beg nowadays Rolling Eyes ] as it's in Manchester and I'm near Alford.

Costs a fortune when relying on public transport and takes forever Shocked

I'll still have a look at the ad you mentioned Thumbs Up

I know it's old but I love it Very Happy

Belonged to a kennels who had it from new and always got it serviced at the garage down the road, the mechanic at the garage kept saying "if ever you want to sell it let me know" two years ago they sold it to him. He and his wife loved it so much they have just bought a new one Shocked Fortunately they didn't need two so the 90 was sold to me Very Happy

It's a 2002 totally original except for the silver paint on the grill, 53000 genuine miles as I have all the service history as the garage just printed it all out off the pc, all MOT's to back up mileage [they did all of those as well]. It has always been wax oiled, everything works, door bottoms no corrosion inside or out! a very few little paint blisters/scabs.

It feels fantastic to drive, everything still nice and tight, engines spotless, I love it!
