Just found your channel and love your relaxed commentary. The motor is great and very clsssy in my opinion..Thanks and i shall back track your videos from tje start.
I think we are going to do a light restoration, tweak a few bits and roll with it. Always open to suggestions but we have to consider it is mainly for towing our recovery trailer so it needs to be usable!
We need to get this Defender finished, then we’ll put some time into the Range Rover. We’re not going crazy with it, just making it well again, with a couple of nice touches added here and there.
Great work, absolute bargain at £500! I've recently bought a 2012 4.4TDV8 Westminster which is my first RR, and I can already see why people love them, even with their issues. I'd rip them vape vents off your windows though, would look a lot better without them, lovely colour though.
Great buy until the transmission has a total melt down which it will when i had a td6 from new i had 2 new transmissions and not cheap especially if your going to tow it wont last long
If it goes pop then we’ll just get a TDV8, 4.2SC or something, not exactly expensive at the moment are they! With a range rover it’s about smiles per gallon while it lasts! In all honesty, what is built well these days?
@@garejmali547 total agree my 2023 range rover has been back in garage more than I've driven it definatley won't buy again have had every model since 1970s just too unreliable not sure what to replace with tbh
Keep the trans in sport mode under 60 mph and it keeps the torque converter from locking/slipping - one of the biggest issues with the transmission. My TD6 has had over 425k hard km’s and is still going strong. That said, the TDV8 is a better towing vehicle and a real joy to drive. See the Harry’s Garage vid with Jeremy Clarckson on the best RR ever
@@Steve_MFr a td6 wont even pull a chug nut out your ass choclate transmission had every model of range rover sine 1970s till 2023 never again always main dealer serviced totally useless
@@garejmali547 in tbat case its a bargain so much car but very expensive on insurance on fuel round where my area in London. Good luck hope it serves you well.

Lovely motor especially without the tints can't wait to see what you do with it

Nice job. It looks GREAT
Thanks, I’m pretty sure there is room for a few more videos from it!

Just need to sort the aircon out and the window things will be history!
A 4.4 TDV8 will hopefully be the next one for us, not yet though.
I hope your going to change those rear discs they are terrible 🙈
Keep the videos coming
Will do, hopefully have something to put together later on today!

Expensive to run and maintain plus not ULEZ compliant. But great deal though.
No ULEZ worries over here, it’s very rural and over an hours drive to the nearest city!

please stop saying and
If it is any consolation, it does my head in! I’ll make a conscious effort 👍
