Slammin's Range Rover (Pg 9)

...about these:



I don't wanna hear shit about the engines, I know the Rover V8 is a pile of English turds.

I don't wanna hear about the air ride suspension, as I'll ditch that pile of turds too.

I wanna hear about the rest of the vehicle.

The rest of this amazing feat of English 4x4 technology.

I believe they actually used bmw's m62 v8 in at least one of their models.

I like round headlights!

[Kershaw]

i believe that would be 1995-2000.

They did (2002+), as well as BMW diesels. I'm more concerned with the Classics. 1970-1996.

My mom had one a while back , it's an amazing truck that will go anywhere you point it , the V8s are not that bad , there interiors are nice but they are expensive to fix if you don't get the model with the M62

The headlights from a euro one fit in my 55 Chevy- nedd to have E lights over here.

Lets just say this one isn't a V8....anymore, but having a 4hp is good for....alternative engines.



Going to lookie at it tonight. It's a friend of mine. He's the engine swap master.

Ohh In that case there amazing trucks , my mom got hers at 21,000 miles and sold it at 244,000 thousand and it still looked new no rust or anything

This one has been converted to standard suspension. It's the LWB model. I was thinking S52 cams an a chip oughta give that M52 a little more oomph for toting that 6000lb monster around.

Aluminium bodies I though?

also, have heard that they are an amazing 4x4 and will take you places into the bush you probably have no business going.

I would rock one.

[slammin.e28]

Aluminium bodies I though?

Like other Land Rover vehicles, most of the Range Rover's bodywork skin is constructed from lightweight aluminium, save for the two-section rear tailgate, and the bonnet on all but the earliest models

Very interesting. Learn something new everyday!

Swap to OBDI manifold?

I didn't know the Rover V8 is so terrible. Isn't it basically the Olds/Buick 215?
