figgy Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Imagine most youngsters today and some women drivers climbing into one for the first time, bamboozled by any gear stick never mind four and some colored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right ladies this vehicle has an overdrive, so you have 16 forward gears and 4 reverse gears at your disposal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricko Posted November 25, 2018 Report Share Posted November 25, 2018 The last Series III that I had came with an Fairey overdrive, fantastic piece of gear, it allowed me to creep up to 55/60mph with a 2.25 diesel fitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerCat Posted November 25, 2018 Report Share Posted November 25, 2018 Isint it incase your landy (mysteriously) hasn't got an oil leak, you pull the leaver before setting off to release some so that others think it's functioning as it should.....

There is only ever one reason that a Landover hasn't got an oil leak. It's empty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
