Was it the one Foley was selling for 33k ukp all expo cool? (which was obviously a LHD ROW 5 door 110 with a transferred VIN from an 84 -- they even had the 84 for "parts only" on their website--and they were selling other ROW tdi 110s for 15k ukp w/o the 84 VIN or accessories)

no it was not the foley vehicle, the original chassis number had been ground off and the 84 vin was stamped on in a NON Land Rover font and the wrong size, with out a '*' at each end. A pis poor job, at least we rebuild the vehicles onto galvanised chassis's, but this costs much more to do!

May be not, but if they decide it looks fake it could be a costly mistake!

Cool, soft top G wag with some decent tyres would be a nice little off road truck.

Do you have a term for "blue balls" over in the UK?

no! no idea what that means!!
From Wikipedia:
Blue balls is the slang (/wiki/Slang) term for a congested prostate or vasocongestion (/wiki/Vasocongestion), the condition of temporary fluid congestion in the testicles (/wiki/Testicles) and prostate (/wiki/Prostate) region caused by prolonged sexual arousal (/wiki/Sexual_arousal) in the human male. It is often accompanied by a cramp-like ache of prostatic congestion (/wiki/Prostatic_congestion) and pain/tenderness or edema (/wiki/Edema) of the testes (/wiki/Testes), and is misconceptionally believed to have the symptom of a blue tinged scrotum (from the notion that blue equals pain, as in a bruise or black eye, which can also appear blue). Weinzimer and Thornton suggested calling it "epididymal hypertension".

So thanks for giving me blue balls. :)
