I thought the passenger side was going to have a few dents and need a respray. I've picked up a couple of scratches but on RR that has cover 80k hard miles it is fine.

If the journey to/from Anglesey track day was anything to go by, I'd say f*ckin hard miles

Looks like a Skoda Yeti on steroids. Not convinced tho, the whole point of a land rover is the hose-down interior and the fact you can mend one with a bit of wood, some gaffer tape and a tin of WD40! Can't imagine one with a cherry-picker on the back, or a flatbed truck, or with caterpiller tracks, or as a snow plough, or with a roof tent, or as an ambulance, or a camper van, or a gun platform, or transport for the Queen, or a bullet proof riot van, or in bits in my garage

Gonna miss the pot-rivets !
But I suspect it'll take more than 14 chassis bolts, few cable and wire loom to swap over full body
