Hi,

Thanks for that info.

How much do you want for it, and whereabouts in Lisbon are you?

(Sorry, would write in Portuguese but are still trying to learn).

Oi!

I´m asking 10.000euros for the car.
As option I will sell it for 8.500euros without the winch and the ARB rear diff lock.

The car is currently at figueira da foz, but if you are interested i could bring it to lx.

As for the photos... did you follow the "instructions" on one of my previous posts? you have to see the photos of the senegal-2003 trip. There are photos of a discovery, 2 series and my defender (white).

Yes, quite sure. Only five pics there, no white Defender in sight. Only softtop, lightweight.

If you have the pic on your computer you could email it to me pieter@vroom.f9.co.uk

Thanks,

Pieter

You only see 5 thumbnails but you'll need to scroll the page horizontally, then you'll see much more. This is very bad page design. Also, with Firefox, main picture that is displayed when a thumbnail is clicked is offscreen and can't be seen without extensive scrolling after each thumbnail click.

Ah, this is weird. I did notice and use the scroll buttons, but only clicked the right hand one once, which just added a blank space, so I assumed there were no other pics. But there are, have found them now. Thanks.

I'll discuss things with my wife when she gets back on Monday, and get back to you, but have one more question for now. If you take off the diff lock but leave the winch, what would the price be?

Thanks for your patience,

Pieter

Hi,

I think I'll give it a pass, sorry.

After discussing it with my wife we feel a 90 isn't ideal for us with two kids. In particular the side facing rear seats.

Good luck with selling it,

Pieter

sure, no problem! with two kids a D90 is one of the worst cars you could buy.
go for a 110, a discovery or a RR...
