    If you are serious buyer, then yes. The Land Rover is actually in Vermont now. Leave me your number and when you would like to see it, and I can make arrangements.

    Philip-
    The guys are having some fun with you. In case you didn't know, a Series Land Rover does not lend itself to a "rotisserie" restoration - it's just not built like that. I've restored/refurbished 4 Land Rovers, so I'm aware of what it takes.

    Anyhow, you have insinuated that this vehicle is similar in quality to a Lanny Clark restoration, and that it has been given a "Rotisserie Restoration" to "Original". Now, when statements like that are made, you have to expect that people are going to point out some of the inconsistencies they see between your statements and the one picture provided.

    Constructive criticism:
    1) When trying to sell a high-end vehicle on an on-line forum, it is always best to post many pictures - both sides, front, back, engine, interior, gauges, etc. Land Rover aficionados will also want to see all parts of the chassis, bulkhead, floors, doors, etc.
    2) Provide a fairly complete list of all the work performed & the parts used (Genuine or aftermarket). Focus on the real highlights of the restoration, not things like tires, jerry cans, jack and roof rack.
    3) People shopping for a restored Land Rover don't want to see something along the lines of 'contact me for more info'. They want all the info right in front of them to determine if they are interested. Basically, if you are trying to sell a $65k vehicle, at least put a little effort into it.
    4) Lose the "completely serviced" statement. It makes you sound like you're selling a generic used car, not a world-class restoration.
