Another 2002 ex-owner here, mine was quite tidy which was unusual for me at the time as I usually went for near to the end type of car, cheap to buy and when it started to go wrong they would go for scrap and I'd just get something else. Cheap type of motoring and plenty of variety, allthough I did end up having about 3 Volvo 145's and a couple of 245's in the space of 5 years!
I do remember I used to get an issue with the 2002 when driving loose gravel type roads, stones would be thrown up from underneath into the engine bay and the fan would sometimes flick them at the fuel filter, caused a couple of fuel leaks. More likely to be attributed to my driving skills at the time  |

One with out the box is Suzuki B-King 1340cc and 181bhp at the rear wheel. Used to look, and sound awesome! 12,000 (scary) miles since new in Feb 2008.

heres what keeps my defender company when all the family is home (one has got to go soon since we only just got the Disco4 'by accident' - it's leased and was meant as a company car for someone else but they no longer need it)

^^ I don't know I have to say that amazon is my favourite of the bunch apart from the defender obviously! I toyed with getting one over my defender but running costs were a lot more. That 4.2 straight six diesel is awesome in my opinion! 2001 TD5 110 County Station Wagon - sold

I need to say I don't usually drive around with a childs bike flag at the back of a car.
Click image to enlarge Bought it for the wife as a shopping car. Not sure why it's always in need of new tyres and brakepads, or do I...
Wouldn't say so if judged by its size, but a very capable tow car as well. |

I sincerely hope so
FCX has kept me very busy this year but I'm hoping once we move to the new premises and the new staff start then I'll have more time (mind you 'the new staff' will probably come with me )
I can't even find an actual picture of it
