Share a container from the UK?

#1 Post by dchsw » Tue Sep 18, 2007 6:01 am

Anyone currently got a container coming out from the UK with space for a 90 in it?

Alternatively, anyone want to share the cost of a 40' container with me?

Could easily get the 90 and a long wheel base anything in, possibly squeeze in a couple of additional shorties or just a whole bunch or parts / engines, whatever.

I'm in no rush, so shout if you have any plans that might fit in with this scheme.

Cheers, David.

To bad your not doing this next year about this time.
I have been wanting to get a 110 5 door wagon.

Unless this means you will be selling your 110, now that you have a 90 coming?

Cheers,
N.

Ah, no. The 110 is most definitely not for sale. Nice try :D

The 90, on the other hand, may be. It all depends on ICBC. Although it's registered in the UK as a '92, Land Rover have confirmed it was shipped to the British Army in '86 - so '92 would have been it's de-mob year.

However, it's VIN suggests it's a 83/84 model, which is interesting. If ICBC go simply off the VIN (as they did when I brought the 110 in) I'll may end up with a vehicle that will be 100% legal in the US in about 15 months - and has only 97 thousand Kilometers on the clock.

Hmmmm....

No worries about the 110. I completely understand. :D
I wouldn't want to sell one either.

I'm not really looking for a 90 (really want a 5 door).
But, then again, for the right price I might be.
But, since I don't really want a 90, it would need to be a price I couldn't refuse.
Something tells me, you would rather keep it, or sell it to the US.

Maybe if next year you are still needing to split a container, we could talk.
I've had two JDM cruisers now, but I am downsizing so I can try and get a house.
Once I got the house, I can start thinking about spending for another truck.

Cheers,
Nick
