James May and the Landrover
I just wanted to include this link to words by James May about the Landrover Defender. In case you don’t know, that’s what I drive. Just great fun. I love thinking that I can go absolutely anywhere (and with the TD5, sometimes quite fast!)
Remember, they are tough motors: you can do this to them and walk away (no, actually I climbed out of the sunroof!) with only a broken thumb. This is the one I rolled on a back road near Reigate in the summer of 2007.
When looking for a replacement I wasn’t too sure if the dealer sitting next to me on a test drive was too happy that he’d asked why I was looking for a new one.

The thing is, to the untrained eye, this is ruined, if it was a monococque, it would be. well tbh that could be fixed in a weekend. Chassis and tub look good!
