The biggest mistake people make with Land Rovers is thinking they are cars, they aren’t, they are farm machinery.

Haha great video. I drive my series almost every day. 52 years old and still going strong!

Brilliant video mate, you have wonderfully highlighted all the little quirks that make up the "rites of passage" for us owners of Series Landys!

David, you did it again.... you made my day! It's pure fun to watch your Landy videos. Well, I don't drive my 109 SIII truck cab on a daily basis, but when I drive it, it's a celebration. When I open the gate and I see the beauty after a couple of days, my heart goes boooooom! Checking oil and water is followed by 30 sec of meditation philosophic thoughts until the little orange light glows strong and firm. The sound, the smell, the vibrations.... and the look out of the windscreen with the spare wheel on top of the bonnet. It's just glorious! The big advantage of the truck cab version is that even my toes can watch the starry sky whilst I get eaten by mosquitos. You don't drive a Land Rover, you sail it...keep on sailing! 👍

I used to daily drive my 1961 series 2a V8 from Windsor into outer London regularly, no problems keeping up with traffic on the M4, now have a 110 Station Wagon V8 that does school run, shopping and long trips to off road sites and see friends. 2hr journeys each way no worries.😀😀😀

Between 1978 to 1982, I used my S3 as a daily vehicle and did 120,000 miles in it. Quite a bit of that was off road, building the M25 motorway around London. That Landy went on to be a daily drive vehicle for a game keeper and is still going today! I still have a 1977 S3 Landy now!

Great to have you back doing Landy videos. Btw, my mate drives his Series IIa everyday to work, and has done for 3+ years. Madness. But it's never let him down.

Although I’ve never driven a Land Rover, I’m sure they were very basic, I drove a Morris Oxford, looking back, it was hell on earth by today’s standards, no power steering! No power assisted breaks, it was indeed heavy work! It was great to see this old “Rover”. B.

Well, I got a 1983 Series 3 and - thanks to the suggestion of an old 88 driver - I replaced the factory steering box (stone hard in the city), with the steering box part number NRC5963. It is a genuine Land Rover factory option of its age, warmly indicated for heavy duty cars such as the Stage One V8 and the "1 Ton model". My 88 now drives like it has a factory servo steering and, both in the city and on the highway is a real treat to drive!!! And I quickly found the part in the Netherlands, online ☺✌🏁

Funny video. I have to drive a Land Rover tomorrow for the first time and was looking for guidance. Really looking forward to it now! (Yes, really)...thank you for making me smile so much 😊

My 1974 S3 is my daily driver. It’s a 2.25 petrol cracking 15 mpg. It’s noisy slow uncomfortable, the heater is a lukewarm gentle draft, the headlights are as bright as whale oil candles and I get a free foot bath when the water drips on my feet but driving it makes me smile. I can’t rush because Lenny the Land Rover won’t rush and the whole experience is just stress free.

When Land Rovers we're bullet proof reliable, and strong, compared to the ones today.

Hahah, hilarisch en toch werkelijk. Bedankt voor het lachen. Hopelijk rijd ik ook weer snel en ben ik binnen de kortse keren net zo maf aan het doen. Groeten uit de kop van Noord Holland.

At least it is a Series 3 . The Series 1 Shorty had an 80 inch wheelbase , not 88 . Those 8 inches make a REAL difference . (She Said) . LOL . The 109s are easier to live with . But harder to park . And you can definitely sleep INSIDE a 109 . The Petrol engine was the better one . Not performance , but the Diesel was the SAME bottom end . Not beefed up for the Compression .

great vid hun, you need the strut things for the cat flap ,then you could have it up when you sleep ,drap some canvas over and you have a landy dormobile thing lol

Nice Ii like it the way you promoot Land Rover 😊

Best review of a Land Rover Series. I have one and it is as horrible as it is wonderful.

Hi I think everyone should own at least one landrover in their lifetime mine lightweight it makes me smile every day gazj

Very cool series 3, David! I have a Defender 110 but the drivers experience is quite similar 🤣

Thanks for the video David, it was very entertaining, apart from the Rick Astley rendition for which you need locking up 🚔

Great video mate, would be good to see a used car buyers guide for the series 3 😘

Yep, the 21 point turn 😆👍👍

You dont drive a landrover, You operate it

Leuke video. Wat is het verbruik wat jij met haar haalt in de stad? Wij denken er over na om een 88 2a of series 3 te kopen. Twijfelen betreft diesel of benzine. Zal beetje woon werk verkeer zijn waar ze voor gebruikt zal worden en om mee over het strand te rijden.

I drive a 1978 Range Rover 2 door classic on coils. No leaver for me never.

If you glowing 30 seconds every morning. Please buy new glowplugs. Than youre glowing 4 seconds.. Landrover series 3 88 1982. 200 tdi. Daily driving

I did funny videos when i was 18, and 1 is with the camera sideways, Pretending the LandRover was a thunderbird rocket on a launchpad. We faked the gravity angle, and it was a bit funny. Eventually I will put it on youtube. The cornering is fairly good in these older LandRovers, and very predictable.

Great video, but you need to speak LOUDER when driving in a Land Rover Series 3!! 😀 I daily drive my series 3 109 in Sweden also, except for the absolute coldest winter months. Then it's better to store it in the garage.

Hey man, is that a 2.25 diesel? if so how do you find it goes on short trips as i've heard that diesels don't last on short trips as it clogs the injectors

I’m driving a 1983 Series 3 daily as standard. Think your a man? Come and drive Fluffy, the 1968 Forward Control (you’ll find our videos on here)

THIS VIDEO IS GOLD i have land rover series 3 88 too

😂😂😂😂 i got a soft top and its hella loud, im planning on driving mines daily, just gotta fix mines first

I would daily mine if the fuel was cheaper. 1:7.6 is the most economical it had ever been lol.

Not even close baby

ik gloei maar 10 seconden. in de winter hooguit 20

:)

Vind land rover leuker als daily driver 😆😆
