Here’s a Landy you can have, I went a country tour with a friend in his Polaris this afternoon, he mentioned he needs rid of it. It’s commercial LWB, 27k miles, he’d like £22k plus VAT. I know nothing about landrovers but it does look good.
The Polaris buggy is very impressive off road by the way, noisy though.
Apologies for missing this Ewan.
I've since looked at a few and even put an offer on one that was agreed but after a brew and a think, it didn't feel right so I didn't go through with it. I kept comparing what I was looking at to my previous 90.
So, I took a punt and paid for one of those full vehicle checks various websites offer and ran it on mine to see what I can find out. Said report also included two recent sale listings from this past Feb, along with pics! It was nice to see it was clearly being well looked after. It was then I noticed an odd vanity plate so I googled it and a dealership came up. I took a punt and emailed them to see if they were in fact the seller from Feb and explained how I was a former owner and that if by chance it ever comes back to him that I would be interested in buying it. It turns out that not only was he the seller but he was the one who bought it from the Porsche dealer I did a px with. It went to his mate but then covid hit and it sat hardly used so he bought it back and ran it for two years and sold it to a good customer of his this Feb.
Well, call it fate, but the current owner had been in touch with him the previous week saying that he'd like to trade it in for a camper van. The market has cooled significantly so the current owner is not liking the pill he'd have to swallow if he did sell it and asked for a few days to mull it over. I should be happy that it wasn't an automatic NO.
I've since had a few chats with the dealer arranging it and was told he hopes to have an answer for me today. Fingers crossed this works out!
