I'm trying to convince my mate to modify his exhaust system on his, but it is his wifes shopping trolley.

Also when your sitting on the motorway and start to apply some throttle, the v8 rumble tends to lift a few eye brows.......people dont expect such a burley v8 sound from such a big saloon.
My mods on this will be replacement size AT tyres, i will replce the rear lights eventually to the US spec and a UHF radio. Im not going to spend money on an exhaust as i think it could be detrimental to my license. I wont put a bullbar on it either, its a family vehicle that will occasionally take me camping and drive the family from A to B on long trips. We do a lot of travelling between sydney and Melbourne so its perfect for that.

Mate ill always be a defender man. The Patrol doesnt come close to the defender in certain areas. I havent taken it offroad yet but i know and do not believe it would ever be betrer than the defender. The defender is in a class of its own, i love it amd I'm greatful for being a member on this forum. Hopefully some of my threads (in particular my egt thread) have helped people and i thank those that have helped me over the years. The Patrol is great but its no defender!
Heres a couple of pics too which i forgot to post

I saw what you did there..... But, no, it actually did not. They are equally hideous, leaving out the noise. As are all modern cars.

As nice as an engine they are...i find 13 litres per 100 around town a bit hard to believe.
