Landy Question

[Nicos]

BB- that was sooooo funny!


We have a clapped out automatic Series 1 Landy which goes through the gears whenever it fancies too!
Poor thing is just a workhorse.

OH went nearly demented replacing the break lights- says you need to be a trained gynaecologist!

[cardiffsteve]

Dont know what series it was .
Twas an 02 reg and swb with no rear seats or windows.

As for the clutch, you'd need calfs like shot putters arms to depress that.
No wonder i got a pain in my knee today.
Or am i just weak and feeble?
Answers on a posctcard please.

Should the high/low ratio lever be in high or low when driving on the road?

[bearded bloke]

High on tarmac bud,02 & heavy clutch is probably defender

[Potstubsdustbins]

If you want a heavy clutch try an Austin Champ, they have more room to. However the RR engine plays heck with the fuel bill.

Fuel consumption & clutch were more civilised in the Austin Gypsy,but elbow room is back down to landy level

[Potstubsdustbins]

Way back in the late 60s I was a co-owner of a Land Rover Forward Control 6 cylinder version, that was a lovely beastie but very basic with regards to comfort.

I wont find out until Tuesday exactly what it was.
My leg still aches

[veggiechicken]

I take it this is a Works Landy - not your own, Steve?

[cardiffsteve]

After driving that landy i wouldnt buy one for myself.
I'll stick to my Benz
