site www.huntingridgemotors.com/cars.php?cat=defender&carid=392&subcat=90_soft_top Anybody done business with these folks? I'm tempted if I can get the price down. If not, I may go with an ex-MoD SIII 109 for cheap. Ron Ward |

You can find this truck on D-90.com. It is Steve Friedman's, and a nice one at that. |

They also seem to have a 2002 D110 TD5 diesel listed for sale and mention they can legally sell in the US. How is this? |

Must have been purged because a search of Discoweb.org comes up with nothing on Hunting Ridge Motors. So is the general concensus that these folks are ok? |

Greg P, It�s easy you strip all the mechanicals out (Engine Xfer case and Transmission, Radiator, Gas tank those simple things to remove. Then ship the rolling carcass in a container, The mechanicals have to ship separately then reinstall all and title it similar to a kit car or salvage title there is a minor sub frame modification required (an extra cross member I believe) some paperwork (This is where it gets tricky) and you have a DOT legal 2002 D110... No I�m not 100% sure on all the details but that is the abridged version and its being done by several companies� out there right now Im going to build a dullie for myself next year... |

I got an XD from Mark Starr at Hunting Ridge a couple years ago, it was exactly what he said it was. I did have to do valve job and some other things not too long after which I wasn't happy with but that was not something I blame on him but rather Land Rover and possibly the past owner. It is a problem with many disco's as I'm sure most of you all know though. |
