Never seen one yet and even Transit Counties are a bit thin on the ground but I was in a mates Land Rover a while ago and there just isn't much space in them.
I like what they are able to do other than the carrying capacity and I don't care how many students can fit in one, I mean something that can carry a couple of motorbikes with ease.
There's no reason why a Landy won't behave itself so long as it's properly maintained - but also little question that they require more attention than, say, a Land Cruiser. Catastrophic failure is, in nearly every case, the result of poor maintenance.
That said, I wouldn't dream of being so daft as to rely on a Land Rover as my main vehicle.
After months(years) of nagging and leaving copies of LRM about the place SWMBO has finally caved and allowed me to have a landy. Its a hollow promise though as she knows full well we've no money to purchase such a glorious thing. Yet.
It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine.

Thanks all - would love to bring her to the 'moot, but the only certainties of a journey there from Hampshire would be:
1. At least two major breakdowns
2. Hourly stops for fuel
3. Driver exhaustion after two hours
4. Overall journey time of at least ten hours.
But that's life with an old Landy for you...
