My Perentie arrived yesterday

[Bush Animal]

My Perentie arrived yesterday and how lucky am I.I had been bidding on the landys at Grays auction at Minto but got outbid on a couple I was having a go at. Never mind I switched over to the auction in Qld with only 5 mins to go so I didn't have much time to research any of them.So just a quick look and bid on the best looking one and I won it .

So it,s turned up a quick look over it and it,s looking better all the time new tyres nice upholstery all one Colorado body nice ant straight .Now a check of the log book has had all the upgrades done new motor and clutch 2 years ago all the drive train nice and tight seals all done .Now for a drive and a crack at a real steep off road hill it drove awesom.Now I have only owned series 2and3 landys and I can,t believe the difference the ride and suspension is fantastic .My daily ride is a new BT50 4x4 but the perentie rides better than the Mazda .I am one very happy Chappy Cheers Bushy

Well done Bush Animal. I know the feeling myself. They are awesome vehicles and after driving my Series III Stage One for 15 years, and it is a good Series, the difference between the 2 of them is incredible. Nice to hear you got one of the good ones. It is a lottery if you don't see them first before you buy so it looks likes you had a win. I think you will have to post in some pics mate. Looking forward to seeing them when you do.
Regards Warrick.

Thanks guys cheers bushy
