Hello,
Sorry to bother you, but I was just reading threads about what to expect when buying a 1997 Land Rover Defender NAS v8, came across your profile and it looks like you have a similar spec. vehicle (if Im not mistaken). What has it been like driving and taking care of it? Have you ended up spending a lot on maintenance or does it run pretty solid? If so, what problems did you run into?
I've always dreamed of having one, and am thinking of buying / importing one now, but was intending on using it as my only car (I mostly drive weekends, with a random longer trip for camping here and there) - would you advise against it? I don't want to spend a fortune maintaining it so would really appreciate your advice!
Thanks so much again,
Anton
