Landy Question for Mr Phoenix

[Richard Coutts-Smith]

Hi-Jack away Keith!
In answer to your earlier question, it was the 300TDI. My biggest problem was the local L/Rover agent. Bought it on Friday, Monday cracked the head and seized the engine the other side of Goondiwindi.(for non Aussies, about 14 hours drive away, and in the middle of no where) The Agent paid for a 2nd hand head to be fitted to get me home, which it did although leaking oil and sounding like a chaff cutter, but denied any further responsibility due to the fact that the work had not been done by them! I could go on for some time, but I now drive a (yawn) Nissan Patrol. 23 years of Landie ownership and then I went cold turkey! Don't know if I can ever recover.......makes owning the Champ a piece of cake.
Rich.
