Landcrab for sale
Can remember somebody on here was looking for a Landcrab for sale, sometime around the New Year. One has just come up, with another one ready for sale in around two weeks time....... http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C605727

Re: Landcrab for sale
Wasn't me but I was seriously thinking of replacing my 'modern' with a Landcrab. The Minor will do everything except pull our caravan and would be useful for motorway journeys (had enough of computer-ridden moderns). I suppose we are a bit spoiled with Minors for club support and spares availability. Always loved the 1800's.

Re: Landcrab for sale
I think the Landcrab club do quite a good spares service.
I've had three over the years, all 2200 versions for some reason - just what turned up really. Two Morris 2200s and a Wolseley Six. Lovely cars to drive with a surprising turn of speed! Another gear would have been nice though as I think the 6 cylinder ones used the same final drive ratio as the 1800s so 1st gear was a little superfluous unless towing...
I'd still have another though if one turned up in the right place, right time etc.

Re: Landcrab for sale
The spares service for them through he club is very good. The club is very friendly too, possibly friendlier than other owners' clubs, dare I say it!! My landcrab is a great car for the family although being a 6 isn't quite as economical as a Minor
