    That's a short romance for sure. Tom's absolutely right, if you're not the right personality the romance of driving and fixing and living with a series rover can get old very quick.

    Of course your going to get a lot of interest, its a Land Rover. Its either for sale or it isn't.

    Every Land Rover we own is for sale, it is just a matter of the price. Our Dormobile is for sale for $50,000. If we actually needed to sell it the price would drop substantially.

    Indeed. My 109 is always for sale for $30,000. Is it worth a 4th of that? Probably. But that is the price to me!

    I decided to take it off the market - there's just no way I can let this thing go.

    I found a nice series III 88 in a pasture with safari top that seems to be complete. I would like to stop and take a closer look but my wife always seems to be with me and she would not approve of another project. I agree you need to have the right state of mind to have one of those, and mine has always been border line. I dont think its going anywhere soon so I will just finsh my D1 for now.
