HI guys,
the 88 rangie 3.5 v8 just went on its first trip a 2000k fishing trip to steep point the track into the point was the worst its been in a while but the rangie loved it corragations and dust every where. when we were planing the trip all i heard was "will it make it" and "its a range rover you cant take that" but i knew it would'nt have a drama and it did'nt not a thing went wrong it just cruised there and back it took everything i threw at it. i can't say the same about my mate 2005 nissan navara the exhuast snapped behind the turbo,had a flat tyre and bull bar rattled loose so just goes to show dont bag rovers.

(also there were a few more 4wds that broke on the track in)

GO THE ROVER.:tease:

just some pics to show how dusty it was i Will get some pics the point as soon as i get them off my mate

Good post, I hate it when people bag Landy's most of them have never even been in a Landy ! I know most people just do it for fun but it really gets my backup.

Here's me thinking about selling my Falcon to by an old RRC as a daily driver my RRC, (weekender) is way more reliable than my Falcon.

It's always a constant fight between my friend (who owns a patrol) and I about landies being better than people think... Then on a trip it nearly caught fire!! Not the landies fault though, my dodgey wiring. (ROUTE YOUR ALTERNATOR CABLES SAFELY!).


Anyway, i'm back to square one with the debate now :mad:
