    Hey Jojo - sounds like I should have, but from your profile I can only see you are 'north of the Queensland' or something like that, so whereabouts are you actually?

    It's not my speciality at all - but I think it was a Volvo 303..... or something like that.

    Feel free to correct if this is a load of tosh.

    There are people who spend all weekend cleaning the car.
    And there are people who drive Discovery.

    That second video shows both the strengths and weaknesses of the forward control design, particularly when portals are involved.

    The tippy - fall over issue is worse in a Haflinger and Pinzgauer and less of an issue in a 101 but the 101 not having portals has a lower C of G.

    [QUOTE=spudboy;1650806]We saw a few UniMogs whilst driving around, but never seemed to have my camera set to go. This is the only one I got a photo of, somewhere in Berlin. Looked very expensive!



    What's the junk on the back for?
    It looks like a ghost buster machine

    That's a BSR truck (BSR = the Berlin council waste removal authority) for cleaning the roads and gutters.
