Diary summary
As a quick summary to the diary pages I have compiled this list. This list outlines all the major items or jobs that I have had to carried out or replace. I haven't mentioned general service items as these are detailed elsewhere.
I won't attempt to add-up the cost of it all but compared to a monthly payment on a newer car it is minimal (and it wouldn't be the same as a Series 3 Landrover - would it ?). Note that this is all since May 1999!
