Well it has started. The excuses are flooding in. I dont think that they can argue the superiority of Disco 3, but the boys at Overlander are trying to accuse land rover of cheating. They are now saying that the Disco 3 shouldnt have qualified for the comp because it isnt available yet. Whether or not it qualified or not, Overlander and 4x4 Australia have chosen it and it has won one of them, they can make all the excuses they want, it still won, and if it had missed out this year, it would have won next year.

I'd love to help you out but i have a moral objection with registering at that site. It makes Discoweb look good! :roll:
Good news about the new Discovery. Shame LR lost the plot though!

You certainly did that. That blinky bill guy who took offence to being called "meathead" and then said are you another member in disguise. Well i made a post saying dont look at me I have no idea who he is. He sent me a PM appologising, saying he didnt care who you are blah blah blah. Matt

there are a lot of people out there that just like to rev others up for a joke
some even get off on it
they are just best ignored.
biting back just excites them more.
however he may have been sincere about what he thought because his posts have been edited and the accusations have been removed.
however no apology as of yet.
my thoughts on the whole thing...............
LAND ROVER WON!!
dont care what one or two others(out of how many?) think or react.

Yeah, there have been a few like that. 4wd_freak for example, total ******, and he hasnt been seen since. He then went to 4wd Monthly forum under the alias westvictoriahilux and pulled the same ****, not to the same extent. Now this LR319, he just wouldnt accept GREGOR's explanation. He couldnt accept that the criteria isnt "is available to the public before X date" but instead "has been released to press and public by X date" two completely different things.
Oh and love your work vlad. Matt

Dont forget the Disco 3 4.0L V6, it wasnt included as Land Rover couldnt supply one or something, anyhow it will be in next year. Matt

OK, Land Rover will take out 1st and 2nd place with those two. And take third with the new revised Freelander - now wouldn't that upset 'em.
