To all those who were worried and missing me, dont panic I am here again.


(listen to the deathly silence 8O )

Long story short time here.

Defender gone
Xr8 ute gone (at a very good price :twisted: )

Now no longer a Landrover owner

Have a brand new Nissan d40 navara st-x

Andways my absence from here has been mostly because of work, flat out in the lead up to Xmas and the fact that very shortly I am signing my name on the bottom line and buying the whole show for myself as well.
Busy times.

Might not get back on like I used to but will make a big effort to get in when I can :wink:

First up thanks for the welcome back.

The Navara is the 06 model
This is a promo shot but same color as mine
https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

got is in a deisel with a 6 speed manual, makes for a surprising drive.

Waiting on a bullbar and tow bar to arrive and then the rest of the spare toys I have laying about can be fitted on.

The cylone just missed us here but we did get a lot of rain out of it, visited some freinds up north their drive way was 22k's of washouts and waterholes so was fun just going to say hi.

The buisness is the same as before (jewelery for those who forgot) taking more and more of my time as I am getting closer to a sign up date, havnt set one yet but will happen this year.
Got another line going in at the shop so the computer might sneek in there later, give me a chance to drop in when ever I can and see whats happening :wink:

That is a small part of it, lack of back up for a product makes it hard to have a lot of trust in said product,


Also a few other things

Defender was a fun but 2 day drives to go to meetings and stock buying ment the cofort wasnt great.

XR8 ute was even more fun and 2 day drives were reduced (GREATLY) but security once I bought stock was a problem and also being a 2 seater it was hard to pick up "freinds" sometimes.

The Nissan will get a Canopy fitted, has a quick release system on it so can come off on weekends for the beach and go back on when I need to pick up the stock. and the comfort leavel is a massive improvement,


Oh and Pedro
The buisness isnt a franchise will be all mine once I have signed up, starting with the Hedland one and then going to take the Bunbury one as well within 3 years.

So might even have to move back down south to the cold and wet.

BRING ON THE MUD :twisted:

And because we sorce most of our tools and workshop equipment via the states the spelling is argued about all the time.

Nissans are very good vehicles if I was to part company with landrovers that is what I would get.

Mind you, after the work I am doing on the disco I wish I had a series again because they are heaps easier to access to work on, even if hot slow and noisy
