Having a bit of a browse on Gumtree I came across this interesting Series 2a Forward Control grafted onto a Perentie 6x6 chassis

Price has come down since first listing. One of those things one dreams of having / using.

It's a very nice unit - had a good look over it a few years back at Glenreagh. [thumbsupbig]

You'll need a few more numbers than that.

Looks to be a well put together rig, one that would look good in my driveway if the missus would see the light.
Not 100% convinced on the chev diesel, but if I was allowed to withdraw that much out of the bank account, then a few more k on a 6 cylinder Isuzu turbo engine wouldn’t be a problem, would it[emoji848][emoji848]

Oh ****, I must have fallen asleep
I’ve got to learn to stop dreaming and realise that if it were $50k on a horse it wouldn’t be a problem, but a Land Rover🤭

Sorry Gav, misread it a bit, thought you were betting even money to afford the 6x6. Anyway read on........
Why 50k?
Was playing golf with my brother years ago when he had to excuse himself to go to a pub that had a tab to watch one of his horses running in Sydney (Crown Mahal).
Had drifted out to 14 so he rang his Darwin booky and had 10k on the nose.
It won.
Last big hit I know of was on (his horse) Flippant in the last race of Melb Cup day about 5 years ago.
Pre race it was 10 so he put 'a bit' on it. Drifted out to 30 so he put 'a bit more' on it.........yes it got up, he wouldn't tell me how much he'd trousered. He only bets the win.
He has a horse running in this year's Melb Cup, life ambition. Life goal setting on roids!

He’s got it advertised for $55000 negotiable
Bargain at $50000
(That’s what I’ve told the missus anyways)

People are asking $40k for 300tdi defenders, that makes this vehicle a real bargain [smilebigeye]
