Mmmmmm. I like.
Would be an excellent addition to the collection.
(but I have a storage problem.)
Hope you get what you want for it and then some Phill.

[Lotz-A-Landies]

IMHO It would be worth the Buy it Now price.

[Mick_Marsh]

Ditto

IMHO It would be worth the Buy it Now price.DittoEven thought of flying over and renting a one way car trailer and bring the 2 vehicles back together. Unfortunately Shonky won't allow me to compete with him for the Sydney Land Rover Ambulance stakes! :(

[Mick_Marsh]

Try "Door to Door".
Probably cost $1k to $1.5k to transport.
I've still got eight days two hours to think about it.

I've still got eight days two hours to think about it.Yes but that would be $2K-$3K because I already have a Land Rover at TankRadio2's place. Hence the 101 and car trailer idea.

[Mick_Marsh]

Worth it.
If not for the 101, to give Shonky a bit of competition.

[101RRS]

Just fly over and drive it back.

[jakeslouw]

Jeez, I'd love it, but the cost of shipping it to ZA plus the hoopla of doing the import merry-go-round over here would kill me.

There can't be more than 5 FC101's in South Africa, so it does count as a collectable, but our government has put the lid on any imports to protect our car producers.

By the way, do you know the Toyota Corolla you buy in Oz is made in South Africa.....and CHEAPER than what we can get it for? Go figure.....

[Lotz-A-Landies]

Just fly over and drive it back.Isn't that what I said? :confused:

Did you know that until the early 2000s our Defender xtremes also used to be made in South Africa?

Isn't that what I said? :confused:

Well sort off but I got confused when you were talking about a second vehicle so I assumed you were talking about driving over.

So what is this second vehicle then? I cannot see where this has come from.

GarryThat is a Mod FFW 109 I bought off Phil ages ago. Unfortunately the free backload along with the Scammel Contractor for someone else has run into a few hurdles when the company taking equipment over to the goldfields hasn't had the go ahead, hence no load, no backload.

Investigations are continuing with other carriers, but picking up a prime mover without an engine is a problem.

[101RRS]

Thanks - wasn't aware of that.

One way trailers can be very expensive.

[tankradio2]

Well guys she went !!!

Well at least on paper (so far so good) the sale was mercifully quick with a minimum of fuss and looks like 'Kirsty' will be heading east !

There cannot have been a more loved 101 in the country and I can state for the record that I only parted with her to fund the rescue of two series 2A's one of which I have reason to believe I actually drove, in person while serving as a driver in 26 Transport Squadron in 1986 !

I will post more details once the sale has gone through and my new projects are home

Thanks again for the support and positive comments from the Aulro community
