Classic vehicles - whatcha got?

[minimutly]

That's quite a wade! I'd be nervous of it getting washed away. I'm sure the door seals didn't keep the river out too much either?

Cold bits.....

Judging by the scenery, he's trying to get into Skyfall without being spotted

He's got a bed full of crap and has seen somewhere to flytip.

There are a few Matchless owners on here, though I only have singles.

Going by the size of his collection @Matchless is just waiting to buy them out.

I have had many Landrovers on lease including the 5L v8 supercharged.
The Landrover that suprised me the most was the Freelander 2. I thought it would be rubbish. Instead it was awesome in ice and snow. Traction aids were brilliant. And it is the best vehicle I have ever driven on soaking wet roads. No aquaplaning at all. Range Rovers tend to be on 275 tyres which are too wide!

Interesting you say that

i thought the freelander 2 was such an agricultural car to drive I was so disappointed

I think I wanted it to drive more like they do now if that makes sense

Weird I drove it in around 2010 - had it for about 6months. It was a top of the range diesel vogue. I found it very car like - only complaint was steering was too light.

Freelander 1 or 2? Big difference.

Mine is the Freelander 2, 2014, 2.2 Sd4, 190hp automatic. It's quick (for a 2 ton 4x4) reasonably economical at around 33 - 35 mpg and a superb tow car, tows twin axle Swift Challenger Sport effortlessly. I'm very pleased with it, only downside is a slightly smaller boot space than I'd like.

My daily driver is a 1996 Toyota Granvia and i never considered it a classic till we went to a car show and randomly won second place in the import MPV catagory

from memory the door seals weren't a problem (it does have seals), it was all over in a few seconds and I was on the bank feeling quite relieved

wanted to respond to posts here regarding a couple of Classics I especially like, Saab 96 and Citroen DS Safari for starters; but can't work out this 'Quote' business. Pressing the button gets me a 'Toggle to Multi-Quote' banner at the top of my screen which doesn't appear to be clickable and makes no sense to me. Tower PC based so maybe its meant for users of more modern equipment? Must've been covered before, someone got a link?

Press the ( + quote ) button on the bottom right in the post you want to quote , then open your post and press ( insert quotes ) on the bottom left

Never figured out the quoting thing. But, I'm special.

I struggled with a lot of this interweb stuff but got there in the end,that's coming from a guy that thought he saw his name on a loaf of bread before he realised it read "thick cut"
