Looks great.:)

Hopefully my envy will end this week!

Like Louise I am curious about the tow bar.

So that's the LR raised air intake? Glad I've held off, think I'll get the new Mantec from the UK.

Looks remarkably like mine that I get this Wednesday - same colour.

All accessories are genuine.

$1400 for the snorkel must be a fitted price which sounds very exy to me.
If you were a member of LROCV we get trade price from ULR/MLR and you could buy the parts only for about $800.

I believe the towpack has been made by Hayman Reese for LR.

Have to say that after driving it for the weekend the engine is great, so much more acceleration than I'm used to.

Next on the list is a cargo barrier.
I only want a half barrier above the seats so will have to make it myself.
After that rear power outlets and cargo draw, again probably make them myself.

This car has a lot to live up to, as my disco has twin diff locks and maxidrive crawler gears. (It for sale by the way).

John, I'm looking at sourcing a new model Mantec snorkel from the UK, should be able to get one landed in Australia for well under AU$400. Will let you know more one I get home and make some enquiries.
