Now a 110 owner

Yep, it's easy to feel high and mighty in one, eh!

I often commute sans music for the same reasons, I feel like I tend to think a bit more.
Often I am thinking about what to upgrade next though... $$$:o

Still enjoying the rev sounds of the engine and the other assortment of characterful noises it makes. I also enjoy looking around at the landscape more because of the elevated seat position.

I agree with you, love the purr of the Puma, from the air intake strategically located just below driver open window. ...but El Rey, when you first crank the stereo be sure to turn the subwoofer up a couple on your favourite track for the full experience. Not a bad stock stereo system I must say 😎 Enjoy!

I'm slowly designing new things to solve some of the compatibility issues, for example, I've just made a pair of rear quarter protectors that will fit with the dual rear carrier. They're the same dimensions as Mulgos bumperette wings.
This is the first prototype set which will be powder coated any day now.

Cheers, Murray

I'm too late for this one. I'll have to bang out the bent bits to fit them but please put me down for a set Murray.

I spend half the time listening to the car and half the time listening to the sound system, Which is awesome, by the way. On those rare occasions when I'm being a little bit silly, I open all the windows and sun hatch and play' The Ride Of The Valkyrie' at full noise. It's amazing how it can split your eardrums without being distorted.

Agree, love the Alpine.

I have a trick safety lock on the rear door that keeps engaging automagically, giving the rear a lot more character. Love it!

Wait until You get the Nugget plumbing and a mantex snorkel, a whole new sound, a real gurgling noise ;)

I have a Safari snorkel with a Syklone head and Nugget's sealed plumbing kit. I do enjoy the gurgle :D

Gurgle? Hmm isn't a snorkel supposed to stop you drowning? ....Or is it a growl?

Yes it is a growl. Accompanied by a slight whistle from the turbo.
