...a virtual blizzard when it arrived, and in the nick of time - I've moved to the bottom of a big rural hill.

1991 Vogue RRC - all major functions work fine - heater, steering, brakes, engine etc, but the rest is in need of a bit of TLC...should be fun!

Sweet, may I ask how much you paid for it?
What's the condition of the bodywork/chassis like?

No problem - £1400.

A bit of welding underneath has resulted in 12 months MOT...

I'm loving my Disco in this weather, take it steady and a bit of engine breaking and it's unstoppable!

Looks great - how many miles had it done when you bought it? I'm picking a 1991 model up tomorrow!

It's on about 120k...more importantly, it has started first time every time!

I bought a 2000 4.6 Vogue about a month ago as my 'winter' car. Great for tootling around in at the weekends and hoping if we have any snow like last year I won't be getting stuck in the house for 2 weeks smile

I nearly went for a P38 but went for a Classic for two reasons: 1, less electrics = less to go wrong and 2, by boss has one and didn't want to copy him!! Haha! Here's mine!
