FUELER Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Own a piece of English Engineering, this Land Rover has handled everthing Baja could dish out and has surviv... um I mean almost except for a fence. Even Robby Gordon would of hit it, really. Rover's alignment is slightly tweeked, but nothing major only on drivers side. The passenger side is perfect rides like it's on rails. Includes full size spare with caliper, spindle, hub, rotor and brake line still attached for those quick pit stops. Does have a slow leak but have not been able to find it. Also needs minor bodywork and copilots seat has a brown stain, substance unknown, but don't let that shy you away from this Baja gem. Volkswagen Touaregs don't have nothing on it when it comes to Baja. Perfect for the 40th anniversary, already in Baja waiting for you. Hahaha.... saw this on my local san diego craigslist... but it is a reminder of how careful one needs to be in Baja or you will be screwed.... If that happens to you and your rig, you might be tempted to lock it up, and go find some suspension parts so you can limp home to USA with your rig. Problem is, if you leave even for a day, chances are you will come back to find broken windows, kicked in body panels, stolen interior parts, kids will throw rocks at the windows, etc. It must have REALLY sucked in a Range Rover, as there are no Range Rovers native to Baja. You can not find parts or technicians for a range rover, ANYWHERE IN ALL OF BAJA (I think all of Mexico for that matter). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude i've been to tons of the Baja races and there are always WD Pathfinders. Some of them are really sweet, I wish I took pictures. My QX4 has been attending tons of Baja races, i've been to the tip of Baja and back, but never entered the Baja 1000 ($3000 entry fee, hah i'd rather do long travel front suspension for that much $$ and do my own Baja adventure) I'll be ath the 40th Baja next month.... i'll see what pics I can take Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
