Standard 4 Door Range Rover Classic

Instead of using my dead 2 door Range Rover as a donor vehicle, I could just buy a decent, newer, 4 door Range Rover Classic.

A standard four door Range Rover Classic can perform well off road. However the panels can be vulnerable to damage and can be expensive to replace.

I might however want to make some modifications to the Range Rover to make it perform better, or at least be safer.

If I didn't have the need for a road legal car and only wanted to have fun off-road, I could just buy a good trailer. This would be used to transport the Range Rover to the off road site(s). I could strip it down or just remove bits as they break. This four door Range Rover didn't have much glass left but did have very noisy power steering and a dodgy gearbox. The grill has been modified and the fuel tank has been moved to inside the back. Looked like cheap and easy fun.

A few weeks later with the final pieces of glass gone and after the roof had been straightened with a forklift. However it was still going.
