    Hi Sitec,

    SWMBO enjoyed herself!

    I hope

    Although I didn't tell her about the fuel consumption figures, or else she'd have a stroke!

    Gud to hear! Hills was 'oooohhhh' when I told her! Lucky re that cable... That'd have fried a few things if it had made contact!

    Hi All,

    Not exactly an adventure - but I washed the 101 for the firs time since taking delivery (about 9 months)....







    Tyre black and all!!!

    It actually came up quite well I think!

    Looks great, i think that little V8 is short lived with those consumption figures.

    Hi All,

    So I took the 101 to the Wallan Classic Car show today...




    I thought that I was the only land rover there - until I spotted this little gem:


    Obviously it is a Series I. According to the owner - it's a 1949, he has owned it for over 30 years - and had just completed the restoration. He said that it was a ground up restoration, still running the original 1.6 engine in it. It was his maiden voyage (driving from Nunawading to Wallan which is about 65km). I asked him if he used aulro and he said that he did, although I didn't catch his username...

    Bet it generated some interest... Lots of people have never seen one, let alone know what one is!!

    Hey, Tom.
    You should try filling the Perentie from empty.

    Dirty Harry (or is it Clean Harry) looks great. I should have gone to the event at Wallan.
    Oh, well, I'll focus on Dookie then Hanging Rock.

    Dirty Harry's Adventures

    Hi All,

    Went away for a long weekend in Dirty Harry. Headed north to Milawa.

    Went to the Brown Brothers winery, then a cheese factory, mustard shop, across to a market in Wangaratta, and the Jazz festival.

    Here is the entrance to Brown Brothers..


    A shot that I took in a park in Wangaratta - while SWMBO was walking around the market.


    And Harry hiding at the Wangaratta caravan park:


    Harry has been driving quite well since I had both carbies rebuilt by a specialist. He starts a lot better.. I don't think that it has helped the fuel consumption though - on the last trip my calculations say about 25l/100...
