Gday all, picked up our next Rangie to add to the family. This one will live most of its life with us in the Garage but may do the odd sand trip in it. Very nice to drive though and very happy with it!

So you don't expect it to be in good running order very often than if your planning to have spend most of its life in your garage then and sand trips what a great way to say to your insurance company it was going well and suddenly a large wave washed it away into the ocean and l lost it.

Had it all checked out and bought an extra 3 years warranty with it, fair enuf they have a bad rep but for the money you pay for one you get a hell of a nice ride with all the luxuries. As I said more for weekend drives and when we want a nice vehicle to drive, definitely not a daily driver. Geez cartm58 you must have been run over by a P38 or something hey, I take it you dont like Land Rovers hey??
Anyway we are more than happy with it.

Adam nothing is going at all, we decided to keep my Rangie for doing the dirty stuff with and one that I dont mind getting a little dented or scratched. It was a little more than 4K though. We got this one with a full service history and at the moment there is bugger all wrong with it (touch wood). Lucus, the green RRC behind is my daily run around, there is some pics in the WA AULROians section under the Harvey trip.

Typical attitude of some tard who has nfi wot he's on about. Its fools like you that shouldn't be allowed to own a Land rover

Took the missus to a nice hotel for the weekend for our 5th wedding anniversary, when the valet parking put the P38 next to a nice jag and a merc seemed to fit in quite nicely!! Found a few quirky little problems but nothing that I wouldn't have expected from any second hand 10 year old car. Still very happy!!

So did you get rid of the Disco?? or is this just a weekend hack
Adam

Nah like I said, we're not getting rid of anything, the P38 will mostly be used on the weekend and when we are going somewhere nice, like your house when we get some spare time!! (not that the D2 and the RRC aren't nice) Kell uses the Disco for day to day running around and I use my RRC for going to and from work and the dirty stuff.
