Welcome Dan !!!

Thank God !! Another D2 in the club !
Was starting to think it was a Defender Club:D:p

[Presto]

Welcome Dan!

Welcome Dan

Dave I still run a D2 - albeit not on many club runs - although if we make Pebbly Beach it will be in the D2

But how cool would a defender body be on a D2 Chassis with Ace - great handling but light and agile.

Hey Keith,
That would be cool, pretty much the Defender Xtreme are set up similar in config.
How did the Bubblebee go over the weekend?

P.S Pebbly is a great place to rest and relax.
Well worth the drive.:cool:

cheers and the D2 is more a around town car and tame offroad although it does have so rock sliders due to me thinking it can go anywhere with road tyres :D:D

not sure if i will make it as the rangie is playing up and trying to get it fixed up

looks like it will be the first meeting of the year when i get to met you all

[Busman]

Hey Dan,

Bring Down the D2 and stay a night or two.
Even on stock tyres, you can still have some fun with no damage.
The old traction control works wonders !:angel:

hey grimace

first is i need to get the tyres i got of you on which is no prob but has developed an idle problem with the gas and wont run at all on petrol. my friend is a mechanic,diesel fitter, engineer etc etc and is haveing a look for me but its also having an issue when it gets hot. i thought it was the imobiliser or sumthin but someone on here suggested the starter motor soleniod getting radiant heat or something which can cause it to not connect properly. i took it to ricks but hes busy till 7th feb. as i only got before chrissy and got it registered last week its just some teething probs.

any suggestions would be great

Still does some mechanical also.
Just thought he could assist, so maybe worth the call.

Enjoy the club, I sure did for 5 years I was in it (now that I'm exiled in Vic I'm not a member anymore). Probably glad to get rid of me, more of a distraction that an influence!!!!


Anyway, finding a set of helpful minds and/or hands shouldn't be hard. The club needs more classic Rangies, too many series and defenders (say that ducking for cover!!).

[disco dan]

Did I miss the first meeting

[harry]

yep, 1st Thursday of each month.


never mind, see you at the next.

[Presto]

We usually send out an email with news for the month and a reminder about the meeting, but we had some issues with the mail server, so it didn't go out! :(
