I got a new car too!!!

[ruuman]

well I say new, it's older than me

1978 range rover, it's a bit dam rusty in places and pisses oil out the g-box, but the engine sounds good and it's got a 2 speed hydralic winch.

I think I'll get rid of the spot light bank on the front and change the colour, not sure what yet though. What do you all reckon?

Ruu

Got enough lights there? :lol:

 

[Ultra_Kool_Dude]

That's sweet.

 

[luokyio]

Congratulations for new car! What engine does it have? 3,5 V8? Automatic?

 

[Renesis]

Nice! is that still legal to drive in that condition? :lol:

 

[bihus]

Great car, but have you sold the 109 (or 110)?

I would try gunmetal grey, or military green.

If it was me i would leave the spot lights there...it looks kinda cool
For a new color, how about black or like someone else mentioned, gunmetal grey...that car should look good in dark colors 8)

 

[Jostyrostelli]

Great!! Have fun with it!

 

[SiR_dude]

+1 for the gunmetal...and mount those lights on the roof.... :lol:

 

[Ultra_Kool_Dude]

Is this baby going off-road a lot then?

On the roof or the rearview mirrors area.

The colour I was talking about was similar to this one.

Or a (non bright - mate?) one. I'll try to find a sample.

\\\EDIT///

Found it.

^That paint makes the shape of the car look better somehow, altough it hasn't got a shape...my neighbour down the street has it on a very very old VW polo sedan, or something like that, looks like shit.

 

[SiR_dude]

That's pretty close to "gunmetal" - basically, a colour that is somewhere between dark gray and black..

 

[jasonchiu]

on that TT, dont u put that on b4 the actual coats?

It's a matte finish. It looks great, IMO.

 

[jasonchiu]

it looks "steathy". does a high quality one help aviod speed traps

 

[andyhui01]

nice car ruuman... love those old skl range rovers, I guess it'll go offroad quite alot eh?... and as people said, mount the spotlights on the roof

 

[AutoMX]

go for the Camel Trophy look, i think its awsome and its symbolic

i love the old RRs and LRs, the new ones look great but they dont look like they belong off road

It looks good on the LR, but I'm not sure it would be that good on the RR...

camel trophy looks sounds pretty cool accutally.....but how about G4 challenge look? Ok, i know that there were no old range rovers in G4 (it didnt even exist) but i think that the G4 challenege orange is AWESOME
