    New addition

    Drove this old, but wise, girl home yesterday (thanks Grant) She did the 600km without blinking an eye!

    Another Rover into the family..

    I was only pulled over once for no rego plates, a full check over by highway patrol and we were back on our way.

    She just needs a few minor tidy ups and a bit of electrical wizardry and she will be a daily driver around the Adelaide Hills.

    Ps.. the beer fridge in the shed has been upgraded to allow for some late nights in the shed.

    Only a Range Rover owner would be happy with 15.5L/100 .............................. ( really I"m envious ... I don't think I've ever returned less than the low 20's).

    That looks great. That colour really enhances the upmarket appeal of the brand.

    Actually ..... I generally drag home the next "project" ............... and I'm really good at pulling them to bits .... tiny little pieces ..... Now the "oneday" when I find the $$$ and time to put them back together hasn't yet arrived Once you have said project in a million pieces ... that's the perfect time to find the next "amazing" project and drag it home .......................
