    I must say I'm really enjoying the new session with Elvis. He has a calm manner about him. Ant was a bit too excitable for me bless him 😁

    My favourite ever episode of WD. As the owner of a 1963 series 2a that I'm planning to restore as my retirement project. This has really inspired me. Thanks Mike and Elvis.

    I consider myself an expert and huge fan of WD. Been watching from season 1. Seen all Edd's stuff multiple times. My favorite auto show by far. Saw Elvis for the 1st time on WD Trading Up. I was an instant fan an am thrilled he's the new mechanic for season 17. So glad Mike is still into the show. We all owe him a debt for keeping WD going. Ant, you will be missed. Welcome on board Elvis!

    I don't get why people care about originality with Landy's.
    They're meant to be cobbled together from various parts. It's what gives each car its unique characteristics.

    • @teamidris
      @teamidris Před 2 lety

      £3k will buy you a nice re-chassis series one with the much faster 2.25 engine, full synchro gearbox and that S2 axel this one had. A wonderful cobbled up classic to have fun with :o) For £20k it needs to have the chassis number stamped on the original chassis and matching gearbox/engine. But, the most valuable bit is the history of mods in its life ^-^ all those brackets, holes and stickers :D

    Britpart for LR? I try to avoid them if poss. I have owned series 1, 2, 2a and 3. Not sure if the makeover is to create a museum piece or a useable classic? Have seen shows where period upgrades are kept as part of the history but not in this episode? Most serious LR owners upgrade the rear diffs, wheels, suspension and gearbox because they were useless on Series 1 and early 2 for anything other than dirt tracks at 15mph. Neighbour has one in as new condition, it stays in a locked garage

    Nice to see Steve Grant on the tv instead of just on the pages of LRO International.
    As for Elvis, he's just the right guy for the job. Ed will always be my favourite. Ant was just too animated for my liking and didn't seem a natural fit for replacing Ed. But Elvis does. Now I look forward to WD's again rather than just watching it because there's nothing else on.

    Elvis clearly knows his stuff. But for gods sake who cares if the nasty rear axle is series 1? That’s a criticism of collectors, who are not drivers.

  • @a.bloke2.0alwayslearning.23

    Many years ago a Friend of mine bought a Landrover in bits and in boxes.
    When examined it revealed a serial number of FOURTEEN !
    (Yes, 14.)
    When he contacted Landrover for parts they said it should no longer exist as it was an early prototype, and offered him a Brand New Landrover in exchange !
    He very wisely declined.
    Me ?
    I think they are just motorised bricks.

      Doesn't make any sense. It's clearly the basic vehicle to work with. Easy to fix in the field if its necessary. The earliest series 1, 2, 2a, 3 doesn't have the reputation of being unreliable.
