Just replied with quotes from others' posts so thought I'd add that I have a few civvy Land Rovers at the moment; '53 80in, '57 88in Series One, '67 109in Series IIA, '73 88in Series III, a Disco 1 van... I had a civvy '49 80in and I've had a few military ones, a Series IIA Lightweight, a Series III Lightweight, a Series III 109in.
But I've also had a Scammell 6x6, a Fiat Panda 4x4, several Mahindra Jeeps (still got them), a Hotchkiss M201, a Nissan Terrano van, a Ford Ranger pick-up... Oh and a couple of Jeep projects on the go. I like 4x4s! They all have pros and cons and are better suited to some jobs than others. All I know for sure is that if you don't look after any of them, they fail.
