    Default Looking for a Series III/D90/D110

    I'm looking for a Diesel, stick, Series III (88 or 109)/D90/D110. Obviously I'd love a pristine D110, LHD but with a budget I'm not crazy...
    I'd prefer a 5 Door, but would consider a 3 Door too.
    This would be my DD, so reliability is more important then cosmetics.

    Diesel and Manual Trans are a necessity

    PM me!

    Desiels in the series trucks have minimal performance gains... a mpg more or two and its just louder... now in a defender its worth it.

    I can out run a 110 w/ out a turbo in my petrol 109.. granted it was the slowest drag race in history

    food for thought.

    Diesel series trucks only get 17mpg?

    Thats odd.....

    A gas 109 setup right will get 19ish.. the desiels were doing 20-21 in a review on LRO
    I get 18 in mine with ~500lbs of gear. This is the series of course not the 110s or 90s.. those are a lot better.

    I'd greatly prefer a diesel, because I've never actually owned one, its reliability, low-end torque and various other reasons. If the right vehicle came along that the only negative was that it was a petrol, I'd def consider it.

    I don't care about performance in my 4x4, I have a GTI...
