So i am thinking to maybe sell the car, time is short and my horses take up so much time i dont get to drive the car a lot.

Maybe a bit mad considering the money spent on it!

custom front winch bumper
9000lb remote winch
Lockrite rear locker
ORA rear bumper with custom recovery points
Castor corrected arms

ORA reinforced rear axle mounts
Uprated panhards
free wheel hubs
CB radio
ORA armour on front and rear axle
ORA armour on diffs
rear seats removed (still have them)
new rear floor welded
Malatesta Kaiman remould tyres as new (5 of)
high lift jack with rear mounting plate
roof rack
waffle boards
kinetic 10m recovery rope
second gel battery in rear with switch
KAP front wings (passenger one is damaged though)
Rear chassis cross braced for recovery strength
Wheel spacers so it fits in Landy tracks
Carpets removed and rubber floors fitted

The big question is what is it worth???

you are probably right but its a tall order to convince anyone who doesnt know off roading what a cracking car this is. I dont think i would be keen on commuting in it now!

Anyway, some pictures pre clean..

and the OSF hub is off, just need to stick it back on.

Dont know about price but you are in a good situation to advertise it as "professionally modified by real mechanics "
I think what puts alot of people off modded 4x4's is it normaly spanner monkeys like us lot that put them together lol

that's maybe a point. It is all professionally done by my workshop so it should be one of the good examples.

The problem we have in Scotland is that car dealers are licensed by the council and we have a code of conduct about selling cars that have to be fit for the road.

As much as its an incredible little car, it isn't a road car by any stretch!

Its also got a 2'' suspension and 2'' body lift
