The Rover-Landers of BC

Hi everyone,

After almost a year of Land Rover ownership, I decided to make myself known as the proud owner of The dark green 1973 Series III 88 that has been seen around the downtown as well as on the Jordan Main. I'm a young but eager to learn what it truly is to be a Land Rover owner. I think I have met a few of you at last year all British car show at Beacon Hill. I absolutely love driving my green machine as it provides me with a totally new feeling of Driving. A little anecdote: After transferring the truck at my name last summer, I went for a long day drive in order to get more familiar with my new vehicle, then I parked the truck at home and jumped in my Mazda. As I put the car in reverse and steered to the right, the car now felt like a one finger operation versus 2 hand and as hit the brakes with the similar amount of pressure as I had been applying over the last 5hrs, I nearly found myself going through the windshield, then I realized that driving today had nothing to do with driving in 1973. I'm looking forward to meeting all of you.

Welcome aboard.
Downtown? Jordan main? Okay, I know there is only one Jordan Main in the world, :lol: so that means you're talking about Victoria as "downtown". Now, for the rest of the world, that would be Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. LOL Another clue of courses is that you're on the "Island" forum. :wink:

It's a big new world with the internet and a welcome one when you have an old Land Rover. Now help is available from the four corners of the world which are only a key stroke away. Part of that big new world is learning the intricacies of a 40 year old Land Rover. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do mine. :D
