Thread: What did you do on your Perentie Today.

Btw I totally understand if people want to be very general in there descriptions from a security point of view . I'm interested as I have been thinking about it as I plan on buying one of these in the near future. I hope

Bushy049, there seems to be some question as to it being an ADR requirement.
On the 4x4 Perenties, it seems to be such an easy thing to do, so why not do it to avoid any registration issues.
Having said that, I do realise the Minto ones have blue slips.
Me, personally, I will be fitting an ignition switch with a steering lock and door locks for security.

For me it was just an added level of security and since the ignition was being done the cost was minimal. Of course any body serious can still get in thru the back but if the canvas is all tied down it means an extra step, and time risk being seen and may deter the general hoon looking for some cash lying around the cab. I would like to put in one of those lockable consoles between the 2 seats to leave torches and other odds and sods that may work easily.

Def. peace of mind for me. Of course any security is defeat-able. The more security, the longer it takes to defeat it, generally speaking. and the less risk of "opportunistic" (lazy thief) incidents.

I'll be putting hours of labour into improving my truck. That (and emotional attachment) is something most insurers won't cover. I do have comp. insurance, but currently at "market value". I plan to change this, as I suspect this will give my insurer too much wriggle room in the event of a total loss. My concern is based on the somewhat rubbery vehicle definition insurers are applying to Perenties.

Dave.

That's a good point how are people going with insurance, and what do they recon "market value" is?

Finally got to fit the Wolf HAZ kit, now very cosy, and a lot less noise.
