    Sometimes I feel a bit like chief. Then I look at the sheeple that drive Tojos and the weird smug self satisfied looks they give me in shop car parks and I know why I drive a Landie.
    BUT, I must say our Prado gave us excellent service and did all we asked it to but was just a bit too soft and easily scratched for us so we went back to a Deafener.........3rd bloody Deafener and we've had an early 300 Tdi Disco as well.
    Is there is no hope for us?

    At least you know your not in denial Chief.

    I do wish I bougnt a Ford RAnger and a Land Cruiser and a 130 at various stages, but the 110 just looks awesome and at the end of the day it does the job very well so I can live with my decision.

    Learn to love what you have and not what you don't have I suppose.

    I'm that damn excited about picking up my new (2nd hand) one it's not funny. Only one more sleep and 2100km to go! A new new one would probably kill me.

    Your tools will be excited too. They will get the rust worn off of them from use.. On a serious note, a toymota is probably built to a more thorough standard but is also about as capable as a wounded commodore and has the characteristics of a take away container and also the future of one .
    Up with the Landy!!
