I'm sorry guys lol....

I'm really sorry guys, but
1. I Needed something with more people room
2. It was such a good deal that I would need to see a shrink if I didn't buy it lol

Reatta is still for sale, my parents wanted to buy it off of me, but the money isn't available at the moment. I know it isn't exactly a replacement for a sports car, but it is much more practicle for a 16 year old that goes camping and boating, and a Reatta won't pull a boat, and isnt exactly the perfect car for taking into the sticks. Plus the Rover can hold 7 people if I use the rear jumpseats lol

Glad you found something that fits your needs - I just hope your Land Rover isn't going to be the repair money pit I've heard they are....!

Re: I'm sorry guys lol....

My boss has one and it is in the shop quite often.
Mostly due to traction control.
I've seen one the the salvage yard, they didn't make
many changes to the buick block.

The back seat of a VW Bug was adequate for me, but kids were smaller then.

Yep, has the 3.9 liter Buick designed V-8 in it. I know that they do like to be in the shop quite often, but my moms boss signed me up for this club type thing that offers a catalog for like every part needed and a 800# for free assitance on how to fix things lol...I wanna try to find a company that will design a small vinyl Reatta script maybe 3-4 inches long so that I can stick it to the back window.

They started with the Buick 215 cubic inch Aluminum engine.
Buick sold them all rights and tooling for it.
