    How much did the new LT77 cost you landed if you don’t mind?

    Drove to Molong & back to pick up kids+dog. No problems, no other Defenders, saw a couple of D1/2s, but traffic pretty light for first day of school holidays.

    Sorry, bought it about 7 years ago and had it stored in the garage. I don't recall what it cost.

    New exhaust

    Had a 2.75" straight thru exhaust fitted. Now get that lovely turbo noise out the back. Egts have gone up big time. Easily pull 450 accelerating hard, where as I used to maybe get 280. Turbo spooling up way faster though. Anyone know safe Egts for a 300tdi? I've been told 600 tops but can't find any documentation to verify.

    had to wrap up the top turbo hose and order a replacement today. It had rubbed through on the radiator hose clamp and dropped into limp mode on an air flow fault.

    Refitted the freshly powder coated tow bar and took the cargo barrier in for the same. Test fitted the plate and fairlead on the bar. Holes in the plate are for the Runva 11XP winch bolts.

    Put the Tardis in to have an Ashcroft's output shaft kit installed, replace a split turbo hose (top one) and the 122k service.
