You could of course go for the last of the previous models with the n/a diesel engine and leaf springs. I bought one, 1990 model, 2 months ago after years of landrover ownership and drove it 6000miles to russia and back and it is the puppies. very simple very tough. don't worry if it can't get over an obstacle, it will just go through it! rust and availability are the main problems I think but mileages of 500,000 or more seem to be the norm rather than the exception. They are also vastly cheaper to buy than the newer models or a decent landy, then you could spend the rest of your budget on fitting out or suspension mods like OME. Just my humble of course!
