I almost bought an L80 (is that a model?) but the owner wanted 5k to cover the
complete drivetrain rebuild and the thing didn't even have seats or an
interior yet.
My car is usually very reliable but when something goes wrong I think all the
other components get wind of it and they all break too.

James,
Have you ever considered buying a Land-Rover? Thank God that you have some
mechanical smarts or your car would be wearing a FOR SALE sign on it's
windscreen right now. It just goes to prove that our LBC's are only as
dependable as our mechanicals skills permit them to be!
