Speaking of LRO Intl mag, I noticed in the current Readers' Rovers section a pic of a Series 1 with cut-back front wings, which were said to make it look like a version "used by the Canadian army." Is this so and who knows what about these models (Dixon K?) and have any survived? I also noticed in same issue that Canadian UNPROFOR contingent in Bosnia have been using three of the Courtlands composite-armored LRs. Probably some of the better kit our guys have, especially compared to the Iltis. The new Western Star trucks are no great shakes either, so one of the troops told me. I'm still looking for the telescopic filler extension, p/n 504656 for my 88" IIA. Local LROs, Octopus and Paul Safari couldn't turn one up for me here in Canada. Does anyone out there have one?

I currently have a 94 GMC Suburban which, while comfortable, is just larger than I care to drive around town in. The 'burban is best on the wide open interstates, its hard to beat its long wide wheel base ride. Frankly the 'burban is kind of boring otherwise. I have a couple of friends who think I should get a Chevy Tahoe or GMC Yukon. No question they are cheaper than the RR, however I'm looking for the best 4WD, not the cheapest. I live in the middle of heavy snow country ( snow belt of upstate NY... 50" so far in December ) so I am interested in winter performance/traction. Can you nice folks give me some ammo to toss at my pals as to why the RR is the best ?

So don't gives us any crap >about making a profit when selling you these toys. Amadeo, Let me be a bit blunt. I am not rich, nor would I waste my money with an attitude like this. I built my 109 myself, starting with a driveable but tattered beginning. It is NOT a toy. It is a daily driver which earns its keep and then some - commuting, hauling, pulling stumps and dealing with all the little problems a homeowner can have. It is this elitist attitude that would prevent me from ever setting foot in a Land-Rover dealership. "You're rich, so just put up with it. We can afford to soak you, 'cause you're too stupid to complain." I find this attitude about as amusing as the attitude of the parts department of the local Land-Rover dealership. "Buy a new one....you're rich. We won't sell parts for the old Series vehicles." It is exactly this horse's butt attitude which will prevent me from buying from LRNA. I do NOT buy TOYS. I buy for capability and functionality. If I wanted a toy I could find something far more expensive and less ugly than my 109. I wanted something that WORKED, was reliable and that I wouldn't need 5 tons of electronic widgetry to repair when needed. My 109 has an Alpine stereo, CD player and as much comfort as I'll ever need. What it does noty have is the electronic and mechanical frippery that car manuifacturers seem to think is necessary in this day and age. And they wonder why I dislike most car dealers...

Popular Science had a great article sport utes a month or so ago. The drove a group of them (the Explorers, Grand Cherokees, Tahoes, etc from Detroit to GM's cold weather test track in the Michigan UP. On the way they got caught in a hellatious blizard, so not only did they report on the test track results, but their personal opinions of the trucks in real life situations. The Range Rover won the tests, and the hearts, hands down. Nothing even came close, including the Discovery. The article is worth finding. It goes in depth into the drive train systems of all the trucks. It's pretty interesting to see the slapped together systems some of the trucks had. The Explorer was not too good.

Date: Sun, 24 Dec 1995 17:58:43 -0600 (CST) From: David Place <dplace@SIRNet.mb.ca> Subject: silver plate I know there is someone in Land Rover space that can answer my question. I want to try silver plating a few of the bad contacts in my Lucus parts in the Land Rover. I know when I was a kid there was somethng in Popular Science or Mechanics Illustrated that use a car battery and some chemical to put a silver surface on metal. I would like to do a few contacts and see if that stops the problems we all seem to have from time to time. For you others trying to repair the panals on your Land Rover, there was a thread about 6 months ago when someone was looking for threaded inserts that would allow you to put a bolt into a panal etc. Today (yes Sunday!) I bought a tool and inserts called Nutsert insert fasteners. The model is an MSK-1 from a company called Avdeel Corp. There is no address on the box but it says made in the USA. The local car dealer says they use them to put roof racks on vans etc. and they love them. The tool works something like a pop rivet tool except you turn a handle that has a threaded rod inside the insert and it spreads the back of the insert. The inserts are aluminum so they won't cause galvanic action with the LR body. I think if anyone could just buy the inserts, you could install them using a bolt with a washer under it and just tighten till the insert spreads.

Personally I find it comforting to know that people closer to LRNA and Solihull are on the Net and subscribe to the List(s). In my opinion you and others who are part of the dealers' network should be encouraged to put any rumors and other misinformation to right. Why haven't we been hearing from you? Jim Pappas does post once in a while with good inside information about the goings on at Land Rover, and I hope he continues to do so. Maybe by some miracle someone at LRNA or -- dare I wish it -- Land Rover in Solihull will join the List. I also don't mind the occasional sales pitch as long as the List doesn't start to look like a bazaar. Remember: there are people from all over the world on this list. I would seriously doubt that LROs in Australia or South Africa are going to go to Denver or Boston to buy their next Rover. Sales people have been lambasted in the Lists, true, but from what I've read, it's been limited to the bozos. It is my opinion that the bozos should be exposed. I'm not sure that anyone has given anyone else any "crap" for making a profit. However, one can't help but wonder at the pricing policies on parts and accessories of the various dealers. Maybe you could shed some light on why an oil filter for a '95 NAS Discovery costs US$11.80 and an air filter costs US$18.80. How much are these items in the UK? One can but hope that the US prices don't reflect some pervasive opinion at Land Rover North America and its dealerships that if people can afford to buy these expensive machines, then it's okay to gouge them on the price of parts. I think you've also been unkind and unfair to the Series LROs, but I'll let them recount their mistreatments at the hands of LRNA and its dealers. Be prepared for an earful. You've got it coming. Here's hoping your holiday weekend improves. Cheers!

Since that time, I have been treated like whale dung at the Richmond, VA dealer (with the notable exception of two of the mechanics who drive Series vehicles). When I drive in with the wife's car - I get a lukewarm reception. "yeah, whaddya want? Oh, wanna look at a Discovery, yeah that's over here, no wait that's a Defender, the Discovery's the one with that looks like the old Buick." If I drive in with the Series - I don't even get the time of day. It was interesting to note the lead ad in the Richmond Times-Dispatch this weekend. Five vehicles listed for Land Rover Richmond, the first four being used vehicles of someone elses (US & Japanese) manufacture. The last was a Defender 90 (and in small print). You want to cut down the vehicles that have made Land Rover great. Fine. You seem to have the same attitude that BMW has. Lets sell the name, who cares about the rest. I think I have a soap box from which to speak on this one too, having driven 2002s and 3.0s in Germany and seeing the old "blue and white" turning away from drivers and owners in Europe in the early '80s to chase the almighty dollar. If you want to sell a product, fine. I have no problem with that. Go sell soap or infomercials.

[ truncated by lro-digester (was 7 lines)] > Art Cobb > Clinton, NY Art, When I was looking for a good offroad vehicle that could pull a trailer, I looked at Range Rovers as an over priced yuppy mobile. High priced and a joke. The only reason I went to the dealership was to see the 93 defender 110. Since I buy a offroad vehicle from the bottom up, I promply crawled under a Range Rover classic. This type of behaviour is frowned upon in most car dealers. Usually after I emerge from my 15 minute crawl under a truck, none of the salepeople will even talk to me. I was quite suprised to find a sales person who not only asked me how I liked the undercarrage, but wondered if I wanted to take a test drive. The point is If you take the time to crawl under a Range Rover you will notice that it is built. I personally prefer the Range Rover classic, or the Disco to the 4.0. Only because I plan to abuse my rovers for a long time, and do not feel that electric seats, and air suspension gizmos will hold up to the abuse. That does not mean that the 4.0 in not a better truck, it just doesn't fit with my quirks. One of my friends own a surban, and I loaned him my Range Rover for a trip to the national rally out in Colorado. We both pulled popup camper sand he was amazed at how stable the Rover pulled a trailer. After off roading in Co. he promply went out and bought a used Range Rover. The Rover tradition has to build the best Off Road trucks. So far not one of their trucks has let down the reputation. I have been very happy with mine. are they worth the money? no, but what truck is. I will say that Rovers have been the best value for the money in my situation.
