    How many Rovers qualifies as a "Fleet"?

    Just bought my 5th Rover, so now i have a total of 4 in my possession.

    Its a 72 SIII 88 with a galvi frame, extra 2.25 and a frozen 2.25. Has a Fairy OD and a hard top.

    With this one i should be able to graft my 77 with it and make a decent rover.
    First but gone: 91 3 door Disco "White Rhino"
    77 Series III 88 ex MoD "Shongololo"
    Gone and I miss her: 97 D1 5 speed
    04 DII
    08 D3 (LR3)

    4 makes the beginings of a good fleet. That '72 sounds pretty good.
    I've been up to 6, but just two now.I just bought a '73 this summer, starting my third dozen. Yes, I'm certifiable. My son has 4, so the acorn yada yada.

          Space: just moved into a house with a 2 car garage and a shed. 1 SIII is outside the shed under a tarp and the other is in various pieces awaiting me to get off my butt and pull the engine so i can start to morph the two into one. The 2 disco's live in the garage and are DD's.

          Money: still working on that one! (the project SIII's get what's left over after the 2 DD's required preventative maintenance and other bills. All 4 are paid off so all i have is a gas/maintenance bill for them)

          Time: i have a very liberal schedule when time off is concerned, however when i do work its long and tiring. That may change in a few years if i get stationed at another unit or if i retire from Uncle Sam's Misguided Children and have to get a "real" job....
