Are you on neat oil? I run 50/50 when I can but I have the CAV pump so it needs a bit of diesel in it to keep it happy.

Although not as a bug out vehicle
I’ve owned a defender 90, discovery 1 and now own a discovery 3.

I keep some kit in my vehicles but more breakdown, medical related as opposed to bugging out etc.

We've had a few landies in our time but are getting too old for the bone shakers these days. We are on the look out for a 4x4 at the moment to replace our Skoda Superb estate so you never know....

Keep us up to date with the project and maybe post a photo now and again just to make us all envious.

Thanks guys, Im already a member of BOV UK on facebook but Im not into creating big, flash overland type vehicles, some of them would be nothing more than a target in the wrong situations. Low key and inconspicuous is my aim.
