    Well folks her she is. (if the pics have worked)
    Picked it up Saturday, after a very early attack of anticipation. I woke up at 3.30am ready to go. Delivery was booked for 9am so I had some pacing to do. Drove it home in the rain and fitted up the BBar in the afternoon.

    I sold a set of wing tops to the wife whilst doing the bar, she came over and placed a coffee on the guard. Funny how something so useless and a wast of money suddenly made sense to her. I think Black will do nicely.

    very happy with the new purchase, thanks for all your help.

    I got my first Landy wave today, quite funny and comforting really. The wife thought I was full of it until it happened. Only saw one Defender all day but sure enough, half way through a round about, no worries. Can't say the same for the 4 Disco's and 1 Rangy....but never mind.

    That's a bit like saying a 110 is better than a 130, it all depends on what you are doing with it.

    We have a Patrol with a tray and a 130 with a tub and when it comes to carting hay the Patrol wins, it has a flat loading area and I can get more bales on the tray, even though it has a saggy bum compared to the 130.

    A tray carries pallets much better, etc, etc.

    A well back has higher sides and so can carry other things like firewood better, etc, etc.

    I agree with you 100% all depends on what you want it for, i suppose there both as good as each other....in different ways....

    Personally I like the look of the style side, and initially was hoping it would work for me.
    But being a tradie I need the space, and with a twin cab having a shorter tray it was paramount. Then I thought steel, but at double the price and a bit more, alloy was an easy choice.
