Talking Just had my first H1 delivered to me in Laughlin NV.

After years of drooling I am now the proud owner of a 2000 H1 Wagon! Found it online and had it shipped in from a rover dealership in Santa Monica CA.

Having 71k miles I had it inspected and found it would pop up a P code for the glowplug controller so had all plugs, controller and relay replaced. It apparently was a former Rancho Suspension display vehicle of some sort as i can see light shadows of the old vinyl stickers and lettering. In all I'm a happy new owner!

Heres an album with pics I got from the dealer.

Damn---I'm seriously jealous! That's a really nice 1.
The Baja TA's are a seriously expensive, and awesome tire--exactly what I want on a 1 for driving around the stuff here in Florida.
I'm sure with enough Google picture searching, you should be able to find some pictures of how it was decaled up. I'd do my best to duplicate that--I bet it looked sweet. Maybe even try to find the last owner for some history.
In all, a great 1st buy for a 1! Lucky bastaad!

Yeah those TA's are the same tires we put on my friends trophy truck! lol I was pretty happy to get the 1 with them on lol. Only down side is being 39's they rub a bit during turns and playing off-road. I'll probably be going to 37's when these wear down.

Bit of an update:

Since purchase I've had to do invest in a couple repairs. So Far it's gotten;
- Glowplugs, GP controller, GP Relay (was popping a ODB code)
- 2 new matched Optima Batteries (dealer had a mismatched set with one being 700cca and other 800cca)
- Misc fuses to replace ones that were bad.

Today will be ordering a FSD/PMD relocation kit. Been having the "won't start when hot" issue. Going with a kit that includes the #9 resistor.

But I must say, these issues/investments are not to bad at all considering the cash deal I got when I bought it!

Once the "little Bugs" are found and dealt with it will be "Improvment" time!! lol
