98 2door?

(1/2) > >>

I've been lucky enough to come into a little money, so i'm off to look at a discovery to replace my ageing Jeep on monday.

I've heard about this vehicle by WOM and I have some questions for those more knowlegable than myself.

First off it supposed to be a black 2 door, did landrover make a 2 door after the early 90s? I don't recall seeing anything after about a 94 plate, also it has the landrover logo printed allover the interior. a special edition perhaps?

Second is it's 3.9 with manual box, apparently it's got about 105k on the clock. is there going to be much life left in the clutch etc?

I also have issues with the reliability of the old V8s as it's not uncommon to hear of porous blocks, shiffted liners and blown head gaskets. I have to say it's a far cry from the 4.0 jeep lump which is known for being just about unbreakable. Am I correct in thinking that as the engines have got larger capacities they have got less reliable due to cylinder wall thickness or lack of?

Thanks for bearing with me,
