I don't like the Series II or later. BMW bought them and designed the series II. They really didn't change it much other than make it cheap.

And, if you're offroading, the D SII sucks. Locking Differentials are expensive. Its the first thing BMW axed on it after buying the company. Look for a 50th Anniversary Ed. Best Discovery ever made by LR, but they are kind of hard to find. They have all the bells and whistles and a locking diff.

PS. Isn't series III what Ford did to it after Ford bought LR from BMW?
