Hello all,

So, I've been lurking here for, I guess, two months, and about when I 
joined I posted a question re: the worth of a 1990 90Q20V.

It's now sitting in my parking space, as of yesterday.  Whoopee!  And I 
just sold the Isuzu Amigo is is replacing (flame away - I didn't sell any 
of the 3 1960's Land Rovers I have sitting around).

The vehicle is loaded, and is in clean condition with 38,000 miles, and 
(after much negotiation and waiting for him to lower it) I
paid the guy his asking price of $16500 (ouch - going into the bank and 
asking for a cashiers check like that, in case you're wondering, is quite 
painful even when you just deposited your loan during that same transaction).

I guess the easy days of this little car's life are up - I'm planning to 
put at least my usual 20-25K miles/year, not to mention any ski trips usw.

Haven't come up with a name yet.  The Isuzu had no name, but the Rovers are:

'67 109 - KUNG SAN (tribal name of the Kalahari Bushmen)
	(AKA) ROVERGNUGEN
'70 88  - RHINO TF (did I mention I also collect toy Rhinos?)
'65 109 - IJIJI (Zulu (I think) name for Rhinocerous)

Any ideas?

In any case, thanks for your help.  Later I'll ask (or watch) for 
accessory companies, but for now I don't want to even think about 
spending more money!
