1963 Land Rover 88 lla review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New engine at 169k, all Rovers leak oil you just have to keep an eye on all levels all the time. Otherwise just regular maintenance. Parts are very low cost.
General comments?
This truck is so fun to drive it just makes you smile. Although transmission is NON sychro (you must double clutch) and everything is manual. It makes it a chore to drive. It is still fun.
